Don't get to excited now, I know accuracy is way more important then hitting a 9 iron 200 yards in the rough, but just for fun post your yardages. Be honest this isn't a macho contest but I hear so many times on this site how many member here carry distances as long as pros.  
10- handicap
Ball-TM Penta
Driver 8.5 46 1/2"-280-290
3 wood 13.3 standard- 230-240
3 20*-210
4 23*-195
5 26*-185
6 29*-175

8 37*-155
9 41*-145
P 45*-135
G 50*-125
53-115
58-80
Of course these may very 10 yards or so depending on weather and how hard I swing. I can squeeze 10 more yards out of all the irons if I swing harder. Most of the time I swing good and solid for accuracy.

You should have folks also put up their iron lofts and lengths.  Same with woods.

Honestly, one thing i don't understand, it's that i am longer with my driver than a couple of you here (275-285) but i can't match your distance with the short irons ???I can't move my 54* over 100yards, even if i swing it as hard as i can...

Who cares how far you can hit it?  All that matters is the number that you put on the scorecard.  I posted back to back 75's this weekend and hit it shorter than everyone.

Are you a picker / sweeper?  I have friends who hit their drivers the same distance as me but they hit their irons a half to a full club longer.  The difference is that they compress the ball more / take more of a divot.  I've made some changes to promote more "shaft lean" at impact and I'm hitting the irons a bit further.  That's not necessarily the goal, but it is a nice result.

Hdcp - 2.5  You can tell I'm a flipper (working on that), because I hit the long clubs pretty long, but pretty average distance (for a fairly fast swinger) with the irons and wedges:

Driver (44.5" 9.5*) - 285-305
3W (15*) - 250-270
18* hybrid - 240
22.5* hybrid - 225
4i - 210
5i - 200
6i - 185
7i - 170
8i - 160
9i - 145
PW (47*) - 130
54* - 110
58* - 90

No official hc but play to around a 12 usually.  Sometimes the 23hc I keep chained in the garage escapes, though.

Ball - whatever was on sale (ProV1x, HX Tour ix/z, B330, Penta, etc.)

Driver - R11 9° 45" Accra Tour Z+ M5 - 300+
3 wood - Titleist 906F2 15° 43" VT80D - 280 (tee), 250-260 (grass)
Hybrid - Adams a2Ts 19°, Matrix Infra - 240 (tee), 230 (grass)
Irons - Callaway X-forged (07) +1/2" PX7.0 (don't know the lofts)
3 - 220
4 - 205
5 - 195
6 - 185

P - Callaway X-Proto 48° - 130
53° - Scratch 8620 - 115
60° - Scratch 8620 - 90

I've had a problem with flipping with my irons so the distances aren't as high as they could be but I'm working on it.  I've seen 10yds of improvement when I strike it well as well as better gaps.

Weird because my specs are almost identical to the above as well, except the driver... I'm 30 yards shorter. Either he's off on his driver, or I swing mine like crap.
