Longest hitter you have ever played with???
Bouche for me... hands down.
Hit a 3i into a 200yard par 3.... he hit the green with an 8i!!!!!! 280 out and he pulls out a hybrid and is pin high!!! The most insane thing I have seen in a long time. Dude is 21!!!willy

he must be about 6'3-6'4 and 240lbs to 250lbs. I gave him a lift on the back of my golfcart and the think had no pick up LOL
Anyway, very very impressive. I used to think it was BS when people said they hit the ball 280 with an iron but now I believe it.willy

My buddy Scott can really bring it when he needs to. I saw him pipe a 350 yarder into a 40 mph cross wind at Loyalist once. Another guy who I used to play with on occasion was Shawn Mullin when he was the pro at Colonnade in Kingston. He could destroy a golf ball. Qualified for the Remax world finals one year. I think he's pretty high up the food chain at UST now.
Bouche, if you hooked up with the right gear and the right people, I could see you hitting 350+ bombs on a regular basis.When applying the Rules, you follow them line by line. You don't read between them.

Played with Bouche today. By far the longest iron player i've ever see. As far as lessons already in line.

I played with a Canadian Tour player last year who was pretty long, but nothing like what you guys are saying about Bouche. I think he has officially become a forum legend.

I played with a guy on the Toronto team at the Ryder Cup, and he was a monster. This guy hit a sand wedge on #2 from 130, no problem. He also was really long with his irons. It helps when you have gigantic arms and hit a huge draw, though. Mattchew is also very long, and sneaky, at that.
My name is Paul. And I'm a golfaholic.

200 Yard 8 iron, that's absolutely insane. If I absolutely pured a 6 iron and gave it all I had I could probably squeeze 200 yards out of it but an 8 iron....wow.

A young fellow named Kyle, in Phoenix. His longest drive during the round I played with him was just over 390 yards....

A young man 19 years old at the Buckingham golf course by the name of Matt Green.Incredible iron play for his age and very,very long and short game and putting to boot.This kid is a gentleman never looses his cool and hits it sweet most of the time with Ping G5 and Hogan Edge irons.Just a pleasure to paly with him.Plays in the low 70's about a 5 hdcp.Watch out for him in the future.

When I was in school I used to go the range with a buddy of mine.. He was close to the same build as Bouche... Anyway if you have ever been to Launch in TO there is a fence at 300.. And its a pretty high fence.. My buddy would hit drivers over it all day with ease..

Our Fav radio host on Saturday mornings pounds the ball very deep.
I have played twice with Kevin, it is nice to watch someone who can swing that sweet. I have been in a group behind Brad Fritch at Rideau View...that was a lot of fun watching that. I was playing with Liam Mcguire and he can hit it deep as well.
Randy Blondin hits the longest I have played with for a "Non-Pro" player. He is like a robot with every drive...Straight and Deep down teh middle

Most of the people I have played with have been shorter hitters. LBH is the longest I have played with, I was usually ahead of him (if I didn't slice), but only by 3-4 feet.
Back at it.

Recently I'd have to give that honour to Mr. Johnston - All time it was a family friend who was a lifetime farmer on PEI. He had forearms the size of most people's biceps he could pump a ball out in the 350-360 range for fun.
He'd hit the first green at our home course from the White tees with a 3 wood consistently.....the hole played 330ish and the prevailing wind was in our face

Dude, I think you are being modest. I remember playing with you at Loch March and we played a 175yrd par 3 over water, it was on the back nine.
Anyways, you hit it over with an 8-iron.... dropped another and hit it pin high with a 9. Just for fun, you ripped a PW on to that green too. You are sick long.

I've played with a few who could drive the ball with Bouche, but his short and mid irons are another story. Playing W2 at Stonebridge, 185yds I hit 4 iron and stub it into the water. He hits a 9I (I think) that grazes the Internation Space Station, comes down and backs up a few feet ending up 10ft from the pin. Needless to say I realized I was in for a long day Thank God for the 9 strokes I got and the fact he just came off a night shift at work!

Once I played with this really huge guy named Paul, he must have been like 10 feet talll, hit it about 250 with his wedge, had a big blue ox for a caddie...
Seriously, I don't have any names to drop, but come on, Bouche must be reading this and LOVING IT!!
It's one thing to see pros hitting bombs (albeit not Bouche-bombs) but it's an entirely different experince when you're actually playing in the same group.
All I need to do is get in line for those lesson's that'll make me 6'4" & 250 lbs.
What's this guy's clubhead speed? A 200 yard 8 iron? That's madness!Al Gore didn't invent the internet, but he did invent global warming.

I dont know who Bouche is but the best player I have seen who happens to be a long hitter is Kevin Fortin Simard. He won the Kent, Amateur a couple of times, turned pro and just won the Spring Open (pro side, Nesrallah won the Amateur). Simard hits it 350 , straight, and all carry. He hits his 3 iron 260. There are 3 or 4 other guys who I have played with who also hit it like Simard but haven't had his success in the QGA. Renaud Langevin, Philliipe-Andre Bannon, and there are a couple of other kids whose names escape me right now are also incredible to watch. Fortin-Simard is the only amateur that has amazed me in 20 so years or so of playing competive golf. And i've played with Fritch and Curry and both Haimes etc etc.
