The 'longest' home run was no more than 650 feet, and that's being most
generous. It was probably less than 550 feet. That's less than 225 yds,
which ain't squat for one who can hit a decent drive. Hell, Lorena Ochoa,
at about 130lbs, regularly pounds them beyond 280 yards.


No wonder you can't hit the green on a par 3. 650 feet = 216 yards, 550
feet = 183 yards.


John's right. Read his post again.
