You are fortunate. I am about the same age as you, and 250 in my limit. Then again I tend to use my 3w more than my driver, so 230 of the tee is my number. When youngsters shows up with their 300 yard driver, I don't try to compete with them. It's waste of time. I just square it up with them usually because I have a better short, approach game, and better putting stroke.
I'm perfectly happy hitting it 250-275 off the tee. After all I'm 64 and am grateful to be able to crank it out that far. But when a "big hitter" joins the group it's an entirely different story. I find myself trying to keep up with 300 yard drives and 200 yard 7 irons. It takes me awhile (and many ruined shots caused by overswinging) to get back in my own groove.

Do you know your own limitations? Are you influenced by stronger hitters and feel you must keep up? Or are you the type who ALWAYS plays within yourself no matter what's in front of you?
