Q: How far can a woman hit a golf ball? (A: Farther than you.)

New Zealander Phillis Meti just shattered the Women’s U.S. Long Drive Competition record with a wallop of 349 yards. The shot was 22 yards longer than the drive she won the competition with in 2006, although she ended up coming in second in the all-important for the second consecutive year.

So…what driver did she hit? In fact, it was a model that won’t hit store shelves until Nov. 12: The SMT DB Plus.

The eight loyal readers of this blog will recall that SMT Golf, a small Illinois company, has been on quite a tear in the long-drive circuit of late. (Well, ever since they broke into the business, actually.)

According to Mike Tait, pre-orders for the DB Plus are 96% sold out already, so if you’re interested in laying hands on this big stick, you should contact SMT fast.

Congrats to Phillis and SMT, again.

FAR too much credit to think there are 8 people who read your posts, Kiel. Usually, it's just the Judge and me trolling by to see what your latest left-wing liberal spew will be.

On topic though - yep, the SMT equipment is making a splash on the long-drive curcuit. However, I still think the folks at BANG GOLF are putting out a great product (use them myself, actually...lol....plug for them).
