Earlier this month a good friend and his 35 year old son visited for some winter golf. The young lad drove both the second and sixth holes of the Palms course at Hacienda Hills with a 5 wood. He came within inches of a hole in one on the sixth hole and tapped in for an eagle. So yes, it can be done.

The kid also hit a driver on the par 5 12th hole at Tierra Del Sol over the marsh, completely eliminating the dogleg left, and wound up in the middle of the fairway, 85 yards from the flag, for his second shot. Dam, youth is wasted on the young!
