315 is probably the longest true measurement I can give you. I've hit 340 off an elevated tee and cut off doglegs, but 315 on a straight, level path is my best.
On a side note, it would have gotten me a birdie, but it was my second tee shot on that same hole
385 with my LD setup, green was 402 and I scared the **** out of the group ahead of me, I dont usually carry my LD driver but if I'm playing a course I know is straight and open, I will take it and have "fun"

About 405. 9th hole at Glen Abbey hurricane force winds hard fairway slightly downhill ended up on the small landing area to theleft of the green beside the pond.
Also a couple of almost 400 yarders on 18 at Glen Abbey. Again massive down wind shot. We would have to be careful not to hit in the pond on our drives when it got windy.
To give you an idea how big the wind was or aways seems to be in Oakville my normal drives are 250 to 270.
With some wind and a cart path I was just inside 100 yards on the 520 yard 9th at Olomana one time.
without help ~340, unless a firm fairway counts as help.
Well if we're going to yardages here according to what the scorecard says my longest on a flat hole is 330. Longest ever was on a hole that plays downhill a good ways and is a par 4 375, right in the middle of the green.
I've cracked 300 a few times on downhillers. I've been in greenside bunkers on 300 yard par 4's, and I measured off a 285 on a slightly uphill par 5. But currently I am averaging just over 240 with my C4. Now that I feel confident with the driver and creating some clubhead speed I am looking to move to a less "dead" driver.
345. With a slight fade. Not a **** clue how I did it though, but it did make me feel better after shooting a 80. I also hit one about 385~, but I had some assistance from a rooftop and the cartpath, so I don't count that one.
