Mr. P.

What kind of distance are we talking about?
I understand the recovery issue, but let's talk about golf for a minute.
Lynn is in the same age group and Vickie can probably affirm that he isn't doing the same kind of strength workouts you are.
Is the disc limiting distance?

I think Bagger may be on to something with the disc. I think it is harder to push up out of the ground with the feet, with the disc problem. This is going to cost you some distance.

Also, strength, at least a certain kind of strength does not always equate to distance. The kind of strength that goes along with speed is the one that has to do with distance.

Tom Kite is a good example of a guy that is around your age, but is hitting the ball long, probably longer than when he won the U.S. Open(some due to technology). It would be interesting to find out what kind of workout he does.
