Did i really put 70 yards onto my drive?

Last year I was hitting it about 220-230 on the sim on a straight hit and that is about what I was getting outside as well so I just assumed it was accurate. Since then I haven't really been hitting drivers on the sim... and when I did it was never at full speed, more just to see if I can get my swing steeper and hit it in the sweet spot but was still slicing. So, before I started working out but after I had taken lessons, my friend and I went to GT we decided to have a driving contest. I was very happy after hitting them around 250-260. I was coming more at the ball from inside, and a steeper swing path, I used to cast the club a lot. So based on that I gained about 30 yards from a steeper path, less of an outside in path.... but the swing only went up a a few mph. Likely? not likely?

I think the doubting comes from a previous post where it is stated that you hit 220-230 on the sim and that is what you said you hit outside as well. I know you said you made numerous improvements but to go from hitting 230 to carrying 1/20 over 295 is a tough accomplishment.
