What was your longest drive so far? State the conditions.....drives should have landed on the fairway or the green!

Mine was about 285 yrds.....flat slope on a slightly elevated tee!

A recent one iwas Tam O'Shanter 5th holes. 450yard par 5 with a big tree on the left. I hit hook 295 yards up hill on the fairway, 8 iron to the green.

Another recent one is at Watson Glen, forgot which holes 300 yards par 4 from white tee. Ball landed on the green and ran over. Slight uphill. 2 weeks later, same hole and tee off from Blue. Ball landed right in front of a deep bunker ( 4' high wall ), it took 3 shots just to get it out.

A longer one would be Westview, Lakehead 9th holes. 420 yard par 4. Drived 330 yards downhill. Sand wedge to the green.

Driver - GBBII 9 degree frim shaft.
Mizuno MP01 is on sale at Golf Town which I believe is a better driver. $268.

My longest drive this year was at Shawneeki. Forgot the yardage of the hole but a downhill drive stopped just short of the pond next to the fairway, 280 yrds.

I can't remember the course or the condition of the slope. Should be 190 yards and I think the wind was blowing in the same direction! :D
