With access to all the statistics in golf being so easy to find, many club golfers are becoming aware of how the top players perform in all areas of the game.
I encourage my students to bear in mind that the majority of top professionals are exceptional athletes and have played the game at a high level for many years.
Here are some interesting stats for you to compare to see if you are above average!
Average club head speed with a driver:
Amateur lady 64 MPH
Amateur man 84 MPH
Tour professional 113 MPH
Highest speed recorded from a long drive specialist 155 MPH!
At the Royal Golf Academy we have a FlightScope radar that provides many details to help improve a golfer’s performance, so don’t hesitate, book a session today to raise your game.
