Question

What is the average distance (all clubs) for tour players? Say on the PGA, European, Nation Wide?

Answer 1

Examples would be...

Driver 295 yards

5 iron 200 yards

9 iron 140 yards

stuff like that. Watch the coverages, they'll show what the most of them hit a true given yardage.

Answer 2

it sorta depends what club you play.

PGA golfers can hit a driver as far as around 300yds going down to a pitching wedge they can hit around 180yds.

Each golfer is different tho. John Daly is a long hitter so his drivers go nearly 400yds, whereas someone like Adam Scott will hit around the 280yds mark. Then there's Tiger Woods who's in the middle somewhere but he's more of an accurate player than a power player

Answer 3

It varies from player to player but it goes something like this:

Driver:  275-330 (Depending on the player)

3-Wood: 250-290

2 iron: 225-250

3 iron: 215-225

4 iron: 200-215

5 iron: 190-200

6 iron: 180-190

7 iron:170-180

8 iron: 160-170

9 iron: 150-160

Pitching Wedge: 130-150

Sand Wedge: 100-120

Lob Wedge:80-100

Now this varies for some players...players like J.B. Holmes, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickleson, Ernie Els are long hitters thus they fall into the category above...players like Mike Weir, Justin Leonard, are slightly shorter than that...It also depends on course conditions, wind conditions, etc.,

Answer 4

There is no average distance as all the players have custom fitted their clubs. Some people have delofted their shorted irons to give them more distance. Others hit their irons twice as far as your average player. Some have lengthened the shafts in their clubs, others have shortened them.

And of course they are all using different brands.

Answer 5

They're will not be much difference in the average distances between the tours.  Golf magazine has a section each month which shows what they carry, and the distances they hit them.
