Between 35 degrees and 100 degrees I am guessing there might be as much as a 20% difference in driver distance.

Really curious to hear what you guys think.
Like your golf balls would ever drop below your body temp . . . as much pocket pool as you play??? I'm shocked you don't swing with your mits in your pockets.
