There should be something about "Long Drive" after the Reconstruction...

Not sure how to change the article name, but it really ought to be "long drive" rather than long driving; someone who knows how please do so.

"86 in is not 127 cm" Long drive clubs, which are always drivers, are different in many ways from consumer clubs. Until the recent club length limitation rules, the shafts were much longer than a normal 88in. (112 cm) shaft, sometimes exceeding 55 in. (140 cm). In 2005, the 86 in. (127 cm) limitation was introduced.

"this statement doesn't make sense" Clubheads usually approach the 460 cubic centimeter limit, rarely below 620cc
