I love, and play, golf, but there's no way Tiger can drive a golf ball 1,350 feet.

That equals 450 yards. Can he do it? Not sure. Can other golfers do it? Yes. My longest in Long Drive competition is 401 yards, 12.5 inches. On the golf course I have driven par 4's over 420 yards. And last year in RE/Max World Long Drive Championship qualifying there was a drive over 500 yards!

My longest drive was approximately 650 yards. The fact that I duck-hooked it onto a runway at Maxwell Airforce Base in Alabama helped me more than the wind. It ended up well ob.

Well, remind me never to get you mad. I'd have to run quite a distance to get away from possible retaliation. :)

Tiger's routinely in the 300-320 yard range from what I understand, when he's hitting it straight, which hasn't happened nearly as often as he'd like lately.
