There was some charity tournament on the Golf Channel last summer and
Arnold Palmer reached a long par-4 hitting driver driver. I don't remember
the model but it looked like 400+ cc. This is an extremely difficult shot
with larger drivers because they're designed to be teed up at least an
inch and anything hit off the deck is going to be anywhere near the sweet
spot. But then, Arnie never was one to play the odds...
