Any chance with your next day out will ya show a vid of the landing as its hard to notice wheather they are going far or not
There was once a guy I seen casting at a comp years ago he used to make the most perfect swing and it looked amazing untill a funny limerick guy fishing near me told me to get closer and watch lol the reel over ran every time and he was hitting around 15 yds lol
But judging by the bends on those rods your pushing some power into those casts
