A drive is the first shot played from the tee on a par-4 or par-5 hole, typically hit with a driver (1-wood). The primary goal is maximum distance while maintaining accuracy.
Professional male golfers average drive distances of 280-310 yards on the PGA Tour, while the average amateur drives about 200-220 yards.
