How to gain more distance without swinging faster? This course setup for the AMA is assuming a perfectly optimal drive by the golfer so in theory 395 yards would be a maximum length for the AMA based on 50% GIR. What is fascinating also though as you dig more into the figures is the distance control options the best players in the world have with almost every club in their bag! So next time the announcer says that someone is hitting a 5 iron from 223, keep in mind that its mostly conditions, and note where the ball actually carries. My average distance was 235-245.

Overall I cant fault these wedges for an elite player as we are aware of the slight differences of feel at strike, flight and contact with the ground. I can hit the ball a long ways, that doesn't make me full of bs. I think some of you think too highly of yourselves & don't give tour players enough credit.

I hit the same. Can crush it further by trap drawing it really stepping on it. Flexibility, speed, and knowing how to transfer energy the most effi I think you wish you hit it further. However don't be overwhelmed, the good news is that there is only one set up choice in the PW, two in the GW and multiple in SW and LW due to the wider range of shorter shots you play with these clubs. If I slow it down some and shoot for 280-290, I hit more fairways.
