Hello,
What is a good power to weight ratio?
I´m 175 cm, 15 yr, small skinny guy, 115 lbs.
I hit drives at around 235m.
Is that good?
Thanks for all the help.

Great and you probably out drive most of the men on the golf course (that is 252 yards in American units). Your height is 5'9" . I was 6' tall and about 140 lb at age 16. I drove close to that distance and hit my record drive of 325 yards at that time (a little tailwind and downhill hole helped). I hit an old school 7 iron about 160 yards then (146m).
Okej thanks,
I´m actually a very short driver at my club, my friends are probably 40m+ infront of me at drives.
I hit a 7i around 140m.

good question , I think driving the ball is all about loading up power in your backswing. Properly swing the club can make a big difference in the overall yardage you get , regardless of how tall or short you are. At least thats what I have seen .....

im 16 and weigh about 175 and i am about 270- 280 (yards) off the tee with a new 910 D2. i hit it fairly far compared to some younger people i play with but whenever i play with the heavier older guys, they seem to hit it farther than i do most times.
