Iron distance and handicap, survey!

I want to see if there is a correlation between long hitting and low handicap. When we have enough data, I will plot the data and post it here.
Let list your 7 iron distance and your handicap, I will start first:

145, 15

153, 20 handicap. Almost 39 years old.

Just a side note, my old set of clubs only went around 140, so there is apparently some credence to how old your clubs are in relation to their distance.
