Surfed for a while and found these numbers from different sources:
- Michelle Wie and Annika Sörenstam were both on 103 a few years ago.
- In 2006 Wie had upped to 108 and Annika to 105.
- In 2003 one of the slowest on the PGA tour was Rocco Mediate at 106.
- Ernie Els has or had 115.
- The majority of the professionals are over 115.
- Tiger and Daly can go 130 and maybe past that.
Anyone else with an idea about pro numbers? They have obviously gone up a fraction over the last few years. I'd like to see the complete table of swing speeds measured on stock drives + maxed out drives.
Why? Well I need a carrot for gym training and I'd like to set a number to reach myself - for regular day-in-day-out stock drives, and I feel it'd be nice to pick a target number that is more or less what 90% of the pros would beat.
Would 110 be a good number?
