I competed in this event last week in Mesquite Nevada, home of the world long drive championship. We were invited to do an exhibition of Para "disabled" long drive. There were above knee amputees, below knee amputees, double amputees, arm amputees and me, the one bpi. The leg amputees were hitting it from 300-350 yards, the assisted arm guys (amputees that use a prosthetic to attach to the club) hit it about 250-300 yards and then the unassisted guys hit is 225-265 yards.
There will be another one next May, love to have more bpi'ers there.
