Reed, Philip
"On Sept. 25, 1974, [Mike] Austin was playing in the US National Seniors Open Championship at the Winterwood Golf Course in Las Vegas, a course since renamed Desert Rose. Austin drew back and unleashed a blast that flew more than 400 yards, bounced in front of the green and came to rest 65 yards beyond the flag-stick. That shot set the Guinness world record as the longest drive ever recorded in a PGA tournament: 515 yards."

How does foot length affect how far you can kick a soccer ball?
the way it affects it is because a big foot takes up the length of the ball so that you can kick it farther, for instance, a kid who has a small foot, can not kick the ball as far it is not taking up all the space on the ball
