Mine are! Seem to have found 20 yards per iron and over shot about 5 greens today!! Love the warm, bring it on!!
 
Yes, but then the weather is supposed to go to crap again at the weekend here. Could also be that my swing was working well yesterday;)
 
I had a couple of random hits at the weekend.....

1. 235 left into a par 5 so thought I'd lay up with my 2nd shot with a PW. Hit it about 185.
2. I too went long on countless greens, hitting my 52 degree approx. 125 (normally 105)
3. Strangely my drives were still only forum average of 365 :smirk:
 
Don't forget to take bounce and roll into account. It's not as soft as it was...so it's not just carry distances that are affected

A 185 yard pitching wedge? Did it land on a road?
 
Seem to remember a previous post on here that suggested that a 20 yard advantage in the warmer weather is not unusual.
 
Still trying to work out the new clubs distances but the problem is that every game has been in windy conditions!
 
I notice the warmer weather particularly one our first, its a par 3 and in the winter my most lofted wood reaches the front of the green, not the same club gets to the back of the green, meaning I have to hit an iron, which is a shame as its nice to use a more forgiving wood on the first.
