It's all about the NEXT shot, whether it's a drive, approach or a putt!
I'd have to agree with the above. 2nd shots have always been the strongest part of my game, but as my max drives improved from around 225 to 250, then again to where I hit 275 with some control and flirt with 300 on open fairways (not that I have a big arm - I know I don't), my scores dropped because I started getting more birdies - plain and simple.Adding yards to your maximum drive DOES lower scores in a couple ways:
1) It makes holes that were impossible to birdie possible and
2) It allows you to throw slower/straighter/more reliable discs when you are throwing shorter holes. If I'm throwing a buzz on holes you have to throw a teebird on, on average I'm going to have a better chance at scoring low on that hole.
Then there's people like my dad who can only drive 125-150. He rarely gets the chance to putt for par. Adding 50 feet to his drives would cut off a lot of throws.
