How far should I hit my driver based on swing speed?
If you’re not hitting it 2.5 to 2.7 times your clubhead speed, you need a better-fitting driver, a lesson, or both. This means if your swing speed is 75 miles per hour, you have the potential to hit your drive at least 185 yards. If your swing speed is 100 mph, your distance potential could be as high as 270 yards.
Can I hit a 300 yard drive?
Let me put it bluntly – No You Can’t! If some guys on the PGA Tour can’t hit it 300 yards – you can’t either. Understanding the ‘true distance’ you hit the golf ball is more important than the ‘bragging distance’ you can hit it.
What happens if your shaft is too stiff?
Two Main Effects of a Too-Stiff Golf Shaft Stiff shafts tend to impact distance, resulting in shorter distance. A shaft that is too stiff will absorb the force of the swing, which affects the timing of the transference of energy from the club to the ball at impact. The ball tends to fly lower, which impacts distance.
Does swing speed determine distance?
Swing speed is only one factor to total distance, and these measurements are just meant as rough estimates. The quality of the impact you make with the ball, along with the spin rates and launch angles you are achieving will also play a part in the final result.
