A golf shot from the tee is called a golf drive, although the so-called driver does not necessarily have to be used for this. The golf drive is an important tool for golfers to cover as much distance as possible on the first shot of a golf hole. The average drive length for the world's top players is around 270 meters. However, only 9% of the players on the US PGA Tour achieve this length. Such average values for stroke length measurements are always measured including the roll-out of the ball. Thanks to the development of materials in recent years, both in terms of golf balls and golf clubs, new distance records have been achieved. Golf courses for professional players are now being designed to be longer and longer. Some drivers with a so-called trampoline effect have now been banned by the golf inspectors at the golf Mecca of St. Andrews during tournament rounds.
