Hitting a 300yd Drive

Not sure what it would look like in real life as we are covered with snow…but I hit 284 total distance today on the sim and was tickled pink. I’m 47…swing speed is around 95….but have finally learned to change my path and hit up on the driver.

Me too, had only a handful of the drives over the number. Funny thing is, one of them happened right after I had a back injury and was still recovering from it with a tender back. A Callaway S2H2 ,Memphis 10 steel shaft , on the number 1 handicap hole. A rise about 20’ just 50 yards from the tee then flatten out to the green . I had never repeated that distance on that hole ever since. Plenty over 280 but the magical 300 is difficult for me because of the shape of cut from the trajectory produced higher flight with less roll out. I love that 5-10 yards cut, it was a very dependable tee shot but, at the cost of some distance.
