Sam Palmer replied to Sam Palmer's discussion Fairway and Distance Driver Situation"Yeah, that's why I was saying it wasn't that big of a deal because I'm perfectly satisfied with my drives. Just wondering your thoughts. The more I think about it, the more I think the glide is a big factor."
Jeffery Nugent replied to Sam Palmer's discussion Fairway and Distance Driver Situation"I think I would cheerfully cut off my pinkie toe if I could throw consistently 400'"
blake pickens replied to Sam Palmer's discussion Fairway and Distance Driver Situation"i think your throwing the same because the teebirds and the force have good glide.and if you enough power to throw the destroyer it will go"

So why is it that I'm throwing my Tee Bird and TL the same distance as my Destroyers and Force? I feel like the natural reaction would be that I don't have enough power to be throwing a disc like a Destroyer, but I'm throwing around 400'-430' with my Tee Birds, TL, Destroyers and Force. Not really that big of a deal, but just wanted to hear your opinion.See More
