i went to the indoor driving range on saturday (my kid was taking a lesson). it was the first time i lifted a club in 3 months. the only glove i had was the one i used the last time i golfed in a pouring rain. and so it wasn't the softest of gloves. the blisters i still have are pretty bad.

i'm not sure what possessed her to do it, but my wife decided to take some swings with a driver. she doesn't golf, and the last time she swung a club was about 20 years ago. after a 1-minute instruction from will's coach, she was hitting 225 yd. lasers. it made me think of how long lenny's been trying to play this game.

some guys have all the luck

i'm not one of them

what’s your normal driving distance?

i've increased my distance by a good 30 yards over the past 3 years just from proper mechanics. before i was never completely shifting my weight onto my left side. now if i could only square up the club 100% of the time.

My good drives are around 230-270. I hit it farther from time to time, but it's usually not straight.

No par 3 should be more than 200 yards from standard tees on a public course.

I will say that I play a private course quite a bit that a friend belongs to. A big number of pga and senior pga guys play out of there as their home course..its a great old school course that very challenging and there is no par 3 over 190
