Long Drive Information

What is Long-Drive?

‘Long-Drive is a sport in which players compete and succeed through driving a golf ball the farthest within a designated landing area called a ‘grid’.

Much like snowboarding is to skiing or MMA is to boxing, Long-drive is its own sport – it’s easier to learn, younger in appeal and far less complex to understand and appreciate than traditional golf.

What is THUNDERBALL!?

THUNDERBALL! is a specialized Long-Drive tournament format where competitors face-off ‘gladiator style’ on a rock & roll stage at night, under lights, with a live audience, cheerleaders & pyrotechnics!

How far do I need to hit it?

Vince Howell, winner of the first THUNDERBALL! said it best. “I’ve won with 280 yard drives and I’ve lost with 420 yard drives.” Conditions (ground & weather), depth of field and timing all play a role in how far you need to hit it to be a competitor.

Do I need to be super tall or strong?

No. Long-Drivers come in all shapes & sizes. Having said that, they’re top tier athletes who follow training and nutrition regimens that rival any other major sport.
