    Happy Gilmore style adds 90 feet, sounds like good enough of an advantage to me. On the side by side cam you can definitely tell he looks much more athletic at the point of impact during his happy gilmore swing. The only drawback is that there is a higher hand-eye coordination requirement, but professional calliber players shouldn’t have a problem with that. If you look on my account you can watch me hit ambidextrous happy gilmore strokes.

  11. uechanchung Said,

    @CerebralPrince10 tiger can crank it 330+ downhill or 275 on a shorter par 4 to setup an easier wedge as well as most top pros their driving is not just about distance but accuracy and 330 over 300 is not huge especially when considering accuracy alone – 60% of fairways on 300 yard drives avg imagine how much lower it would be going for the 330

  12. CerebralPrince10 Said,

    @uechanchung Tiger’s 330+ downhill would translate to 363+ with a happy gilmore style. 363 could mean getting on the green on some par fours hence lower scores. I again want to reiterate that there is higher hand-eye coordination requirement when hitting on the run, but for professional golfers this shouldn’t be a problem

  13. xva232 Said,

    if he wanted to hit it really really far he should have used a hockey stick

  14. ricepaddy69 Said,

    Wow, I like Padraig Harrington a thousand times more than I did seven and a half minutes ago.

    Wow, I like Padraig Harrington a thousand times more than I did seven and a half minutes ago!

  16. Xuvial Said,

    You need to be an ex-icehockey player like Happy AND have his bizarre attitude if you want to reach that 400 yard mark. Otherwise you’re just not going to make it, no matter how much of a professional golfer you are.

    at 2:37 its a charles barkley shot

  18. Poloxinated Said,

    rofl, Hoddrick Herington! (cause tiger woods was too busy shagging some random girl)

  19. MAlatinboy Said,

    @CerebralPrince10 true but pros do mishit the ball, and any mishit is exaggerated by a gilmore swing. that swing has a low success % and pros can’t afford to be less accurate. i bet most pros could hit it way further if they swung at full power and used drivers that maximized distance, but most just swing easier and use more forgiving drivers for accuracy and still hit it far. bubba watson and camilo villegas used to hit it farther on the nationwide tour, but they stopped that for the pga tour.

  20. CerebralPrince10 Said,

    you make a valid point @MAlatinboy. Ideally a pro can choose to go Happy Gilmore or still swing with a conventional approach. The extra yards could for some of the bigger hitters could mean getting on green in one on a par four and two on a par five (UGIF) which could mean strokes off of multiple holes

  21. Awesomeness929 Said,

    We do amazing basketball trick shots! Subscribe so you won’t mis the 100 ft. bomb!

  22. ghman89 Said,

    r u retarted its not just the swing dont u remember happy gilmore was a hockey player and he used a slap shot to hit it as well not just running up to the ball ya it will make it go farther but the slap sjot will make it more acurate and have more distance

  23. VanhaUkki Said,

    Please replay the swing because I missed it.

  24. travelsonic Said,

    He talks about consistency as being a reason for not using this technique, but wouldn’t one be able to refine the specific techniques to increase that consistency or accuracy?

  25. 20juli2008 Said,

    @BigboyDownStairs just run at that ball and let your whole body explode like a nuclear bomb. it is fucking amazing! I tried it and it was great to see the ball flewing with such a power
