# A 310 yard drive

A drive that totals 310 yards on a fairway landing carries about 287 yards and takes 118 mph of club head speed on the published tour table, with 174 mph of ball speed. That speed is faster than the model’s scratch golfer, into plus handicap territory and above the peak of the age model. On a 400 yard par 4 it leaves 90 yards, from where the fairway table needs 2.775 strokes to hole out.

## Key figures

- A 310 yard total drive carries about 287 yards and takes 118 mph of club head speed on the published tour table.
- On a 400 yard par 4 a 310 yard drive leaves 90 yards, worth 2.775 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 310 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.
