  Mine is 435 yds at Cabo and it is saved on my profile page.  Ended up a couple yards off the edge of the green on a 417 yd hole.

  Hi Mohawk1, sorry to say that your 403 yards drive is not in your stats. If you watch your shot again you will see that it rolls off the back of the green and onto the apron. That would normally count but I’m sorry to say that your ball as touched the rough and that means it is not counted as a drive.

   

  I wish you all the best in your future attempts.

  Hi John ,

  I realised it wasn't in my stats after I had posted here , jumped the gun in excitement .  The drive I have recorded at 398 was also on St Andys 10 where the 403 was hit . The 398 ended up in the identical spot but because it didn't rub the rough like the 403 did at the end it was a good drive stat ? 

  Still on the outside of the 400 club looking in but will be back , cheers

  On 04/07/12 Is when I Saved this 434 yard drive. The 434 was actually my 3RD, attempt..I had found out about, this short cut, purely by accident, & with only a 8MPH wind that only went 408... I had to try again,  & did try as I did... Ive' tried with intent,only twice....A nice 12MPH wind was all i needed to find contentment...lol. doesn't  mean I'll stop trying if the wind is right. lol.  Oh I have yet,  to lose a ball trying to get on the green, In ONE!       P.S if anyone makes this green? send me your replay..

  Hi RRR37, BMX123 and LarkinPat1and welcome to the club.

   

  LarkinPat1, to answer your question about getting onto the green; there are a few players that have done it. Also that hole was played into the game to do that. If you watch the relays of all the players that have done the 400 yard plus on this hole, the ball hits the same stones every time. It appears the only difference is when the ball hits the roadway for the final time.

  I have a 400 yd. drive on an actual course, but that probably won't get me into to this exclusive club.
