# A 200 yard drive

A drive that totals 200 yards on a fairway landing carries about 185 yards and takes 80 mph of club head speed on the published tour table, with 112 mph of ball speed. That speed is about a 28 handicap on the handicap model and about age 64 on the age model. On a 400 yard par 4 it leaves 200 yards, from where the fairway table needs 3.190 strokes to hole out.

## Key figures

- A 200 yard total drive carries about 185 yards and takes 80 mph of club head speed on the published tour table.
- On a 400 yard par 4 a 200 yard drive leaves 200 yards, worth 3.190 strokes from the fairway; ten more yards are worth about 0.04 of a stroke per approach.

## Scope

- The speed is the published tour driver anchor inverted for 200 yards of total distance with a modeled 8 percent roll; the tee shot rows use the site’s dispersion model with a spread scaled to the distance.
