In 1965 Jack hit his drive on the 18th hole at Augusta National 366 yrds using the old persimmon wood driver with a steel shaft and the old golf balls.
I love the fact that Sergio and Woodland get some recognition here. Sergio's clubhead speed is CRAZY; he just chooses to hit down and flight his driver shots, which is why they only carry around 285 (still a big hit). Woodland is just an absolute monster. I love the way he just picks it up, relaxes the arms, and fires his right shoulder through. He swings so damn casually and consistently gets 190 mph ball speeds. I believe that if Gary Woodland were to swing at his full power, he would be able to compete in long drive.
Too much emphasis, IMHO, on the power game in the modern era. Liked the game better in the pre-graphite, titanium, perimeter weighted, rocket ball era. Called for more finesse. A 300 yard drive was really something awesome back then, and hitting par 5s in two required two great shots. It's just a totally different game now: like the difference between steel and wooden shafts. Probably more fun now, though, for the average guy who doesn't have to struggle so hard.
barry nicholas yeah. but it also shows that a high chs is a big advantage. Of course youre not winning tournaments by simply hitting it long, but a most of these guys have won a tournament in the last 2 years.
Tiger was able to swing faster than Loupe on a regular basis. He did that with a steel shafted 975D. Another reason why he is the best of all time.

Cameron champ: Avg: 130mph lmao
Nicklaus first had his swing speed done when he was in his very early 50’s...118 mph! Curious what his swing speed was at 25?😳
One thing to note with bubba is that where many hit 3 woods he often hits a really chippy low cut with a driver
12:56 I think that is DJ.
Nobody:
GolfLeaks: Total club head speed
That the average is only a few mph less than the highest just shows that these guys all killing it.
You have to average the stats of several years to make an accurate list

That guy at number one looks like he’s trying to swing as hard as he can
Bubba do be swinging faster tho
Proves there's more to golf than club head speed.

Sweet tunes
Total club head speed? Cmon
Yeah, pretty meaningless.
Stupidest stat!!!
Rory?
How about just showing a slow motion of a swing and not this ADHD stuff? Jesus christ.
