This has resulted in the average driving distance leveling off in recent years on the PGA Tour. However, on the Championsâ Tour, the distance of the average drive increased from 270.2 yards in 2006 to 277.0 yards in 2009.
With these regulations, Bubba Watson , the biggest driver on the PGA Tour for three of the last four years, has actually seen his average drive distance drop. At the end of the 2009 season, it stood at 312 yards per drive. While not exactly a chip shot, it represents a fall of seven yards in three years. In fact, the PGA Tour average currently stands at 287 yards - a figure quite easily out of the reach of most amateurs, but one that has remained the same since 2003.
