Commentator: “He never misses left.” Misses left next shot
to be fair, he said RARELY, and then he actually said if he hits 10 OB, then 9 are right, so that was the one that went left...
@@DaFifaKid No he said 9.9 out of 10 would be on the right. The rest 0.1 would be on the left (= 1%)
I once drove a 427 yard par 4. Rode that cart path 200 yards.
21Sneaky Sureeeee
21Sneaky my senior year I hit a cart path bouncing it too about 390 I was roughly 30 yards from front of green on par 4
@@Poetizz It's a joke, not a dick, don't take it so hard.
LeeD. Way o-
There are a few things for how to play golf better
Do exercises
Position your feet correctly
Learn the best body posture
(I learned these and why they work on Gavs golf tactic site )
Every time I stumble onto things like this I seriously ask myself what I'm doing with my life. Seriously.
RIght here, right now I feel you so much.
Haha
PeacefulKancer I hear that.
I looked it up
Pissflaps
7:34
“Happy Gilmore accomplished that feat no more than an hour ago.”
"He never hits OB to the left."
-very next ball
“That’s two thus far shooter” “oh you can count, good for you” “and you can count, on me, waiting for you in the parking lot
lmao happy gilmore
The fucker hit it 427. Good God.
they are elevated too though
At 427...does it really matter?
Yeah, but couldn't do it on a golf course.
Some of them actually have hit it over 400 non-elavated :)
Dayum!
I love how un organized this event was. Everyone was wondering how far he hit it and nobody made the effort to find out the distance 😂
I love watching the super seniors... would love to see more of them
Incredible 💪🏾
He hit that .1 ball left
lmao i just thought that
Got to have the sponsors names ALL OVER the target area.
How else can you afford to pay a guy 250000 for a day's wage?
That guy yelling in everyone's backswing should have been ejected.
Shoulda given him an air horn!
Andy B
You will not make this drive...ya’ jackass!
Long drive idiot, get loud or go home
Andy B- Sadder than your ill informed comment is that there are so far 197 others that agree with you. This is long drive!
TheNYgolfer So you’re saying because it’s long drive means you shouldn’t respect the players while they’re trying to focus? The guy was yelling at contact with the ball, it’d mess me up.
Damn I really thought this vid was gonna be some type of super endurance racing
fun fact : you didn’t search for this video
Me: Pumped about hitting a 270 drive. These guys: “Eh” after a 380+ drive
CZcams recommendations you did it again
That distance was only achieve as they were about 40ft up on the stadium. Love to see them do that on the level.
He did 450 yards plus on the flat nugget
too many ads on the field i can't see the ball
A priest once missed a service to go golfing.
Peter asked God, "Are you going to punish him?"
God just smiled as the priest got a hole in one.
Peter looked at God as if to say, WTF!?
God asked Peter, "Who is he going to tell?"
@James Fondren i felt that damn that's a good story
nordhorny let people believe what they want man
but where's Happy Gilmore
Prepping for the subway footlong world long driver championship
@dyy Fethiiyhn It was a joke, sport.
He'll see you guys there.... PBBBBTTTTT
10:20 - that sound... you know he's hit it as clean as you possibly can...
Why are they on a raised platform? I guess they just do it so it looks cooler.
My goodness. My drives have never went beyond 270 yards.. i wish i can drive like these guys. 350+ yard drives would definitely help out with par 5
OK CZcams...YOU WIN. IM WATCHING THE DAMN VIDEO.
0:03 BRING IN THE CHADS
Total Package and Blonde Bomber? Thought this was the womens championship
ewwtvbeyjd
The psychic abilities these announcers have is incredible. They predict the outcome before the ball lands. How do they do it? 🤔
Maybe they comment from studio and got video delay
Very American, only things missing are explosions as the ball flies down there, helicopters, Air Force Jets flying, Navy seals parachuting on top of the golf ball.
wheres Happy Gilmore when u need him
Hopefully my friend can do this year's to come he getting better.
Just curious, since they were hitting from a elevated tee, seen the other long drive events where they hit the balls from a level tee, did that make it any easier to gain MORE yards on their shots, really mthink that they had a much BIGGER advantage being able to hit their tee shots from that elevated position........
Watch in 720p actual video 240p
How do they get these measurements if they're hitting from an elevated platform?
plusnightlife Our Operations team used a Laser Link to shoot a Flag with a Crystal back on the tee box to find the 300 yard mark. Then we used a 100' tape measure to mark the rest of the grid. No matter what the yardage is, Longest ball on any grid wins.
+plusnightlife It looks like they are elevated 50+ yards, so take that amount off of the distance.
+Long DriversUSA tru
+binyamj Thats so wrong...
thats not how physics works lmao
Heather Lemaster "flew it about 310" lol what's the weather like at that elevation I wonder
Top women in longdrive fly it 310+ on level ground
Smacked that thing so good
The action starts at 3:40.
I ate 500mg of edibles and this is where I end up on my Saturday night
Has anyone hit the Wilson triton? How is it?
what's the intro song???
How much do they gain by hitting off the elevated platform?
Is it me or is the landing zone not straight compared where they are swinging from? Like a ball landing on the left would be farther than a ball landing on the right, purely based on the lines.
Spoiler:He now won 2015 WLDC as well!
90% of these dudes look like Chads.....
Of the two?
I once hit a ball over 400 yards. It only took me 3 shots.
my problem is that I stand to close to the ball, after I hit it
Everyone saying they are elevated so hit it further. There's countless videos of Joe hitting it 430 + on a flat range or course so when any of you can hit it over 330+ your opinion might matter even tho they will still carry you by 100 yards 😂
Hit it 330+? I bet the people making those comments couldn't hit it 100+! Lol
on his first shot "he never breaks to the left, if he hit 10 OB's 9.9 would be to the right" very next ball OB left. commentators curse right there
Really wish they would put these videos in order. Kinds sucks trying to hop around on the playlist instead being able to just watch every video from start to finish from the being of the series to the finals.
I hit a 430 yard drive once, but my witnesses were Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. 0_0
+Matt Crider I hit a 900 yard drive from a mountain top to a lake. Basically the same as this competition.
Ha
True story i was There .....im 🎅
i once hit a 195... but i was in highschool and nobody was measuring...
I did hit so hard my club broke... perhaps thin wooden stick isn't proper gear for this kind of competition.
what if they hit on level group instead of an elevated teebox
5 yds, maybe 10. They hit it 415 on flat
Then one of them still wins
I can hit it 420 yards easy with a couple extra swings.
If he hits 10 OB's 9.9 are to the right... what?!?
Freemoney1000 *then hits one to the left
99/100 = 9.9/10
Right... I was thinking the same thing😂
It's called statisticly speaking.
This Top Golf location is amazing.
wow people actually still watch this WTF
@@iamjustgooder384 youtube does mysterious things
Why are these long drive contests always on a well elevated tee? This tee box must be 10 stories high. These 400 yard drives are probably 330-350 yard drives from a level/normal tee which is still pretty damn good. But its not 400.
+Shakester71 They also come down steeper in a setup like this, so there's less roll. There were a few balls that just stopped dead, something that normally wouldn't happen.
+Michael Mitchum No...they also hit past 400y without an elevated teebox. The distances are adapted to the height difference
No these drivers are allowed on the PGA Tour, pros don't use them cause the longer you get the less consistent your drives get. Pros are all about hitting it down the middle every time not, hitting the fairway 5/13 holes.
It is a custom diver head, but that does not mean it is illegal.
No matter how you look at it, its still a big advantage. I've played courses where the tee wasn't even as elevated as this and I average 280 with my driver with about 270 yards of carry. I've busted 320 on those elevated tees. The higher the ball is in the air, the more its going to carry.
Put them on the ground instead of up in the air hitting off a box then see if they can still hit these distances.
They can...
What if they are using an illegal driver? plus they are like a few feet above
Yeah, great, but...how far was Millers fifth shot?
Drivin
Damn that was a 427 yard fade too
Race fans are gonna show up and be like, "What the fuck are all these golf balls doing in the seats?"
What is the elevation in these comps?
Sea level sometimes
What drivers are they using?
Thomas Garrett Joe has a Callaway XHot Pro LD with a Fujikura Prototype 2X shaft and Tim has a Krank Formula 5 with a Fujikura Livewire shaft
What a bizarre location to hold a long drive event. OTOH, they do drive on a racetrack, I suppose......
Hot blackjack, hot vision, police dog stem
Winner take all
this kind of range is so inaccurate. not only is it curved and awkward but the platform is elevated into the skies. can't belive they could't find a better place for a final.
Joe miller reminds me of Vin Diesel
And I was proud of my 260 yard hit the other day damm I was just put to shame
"If he hits 10 OB, 9.9 of them are to the right"
Next shot, pulls it left.
It’s good that you can earn 250k by having @ 250 spectators. Expensive seats.
Every time I play from an elevated tee, I can hit a massive shot......... oh, wait, EVERYONE DOES......... why not play on level ground????? that way there will be a true reflection of the distance
Next season they can hit from helicopters
Obviously they need to be elevated if possible to allow for better viewing etc. And really it doesn't matter they are all playing on the same field. If however you are just trying to imagine how far ahead of you they really are then yes I think they set it up to get big numbers over 400+ to make it more sensational but what sport doesn't. Believe me they would blow by 99% of the people who believe they are big hitters because they do this everyday.
Legend says that bryson dechambeau would beat them with a putter
When these guys hit a bad shot, it's reeeeeeaaaaalllly bad!
Do homerun hitters strikeout?
They should put the contestants down in a hole maybe 50 feet below ground level where the distances are marked and see how many people show up for that even. "Joe Hooker just slammed one 270!" (as 5 spectators clap in the stands).
I used to love golf when I was 2 years old, idk what happened lol
yeah put me on the top of the empire state and I hit 500 yards too..
the yardages were adjusted for slope
Bob Pappa doing long drives? Very strange. Used to him calling the Gmen!
Oh so they just smack it as hard as they can and hope it lands in bounds. Fun.
I’m 14 and only hitting it 263 so over 400 that’s crazy
Why wouldn't you show the shot tracker every time?
Shouldn't this be measured from level ground instead of from the top of a mountain?
Agreed
Yeah, but everyone is hitting from the same height. And to be honest, with their ball's descent angle, it only adds about 10 yards. You still gotta be able to swing 20mph faster that Tiger woods if you want to even have a chance at making it to the Worlds championship.
Isn't that hight difference between teebox and green against the long drive rules?
No, everyone is hitting from the same height. If you are lucky you will get a wind shift during your hit.
I wish they were forced to use PGA legal equipment only, to really see their relative advantage and spin/speeds vs PGA tour guys. The longer shafts and certain factors are good for entertainment but kinda takes away from the real amazement of how hard these guys hit.
This is the birth child of the wwe and nascar three way with golf.
I think I could get close to 430 they are elevated so it helps
A little humorous that they are all dressed in Golf gear. Other than golf shoes sweats will do :)
'and this one is going to hit the grass'....crowd roars...
9.9 OB right. Then he hits an OB left
,,this is good
When these guys line up a putt do they just crush it as hard as they can?
amazing! im the longest driverrrrrrrrrrrrr!!! See you in 2021.
250k to drive a ball ?
Dam,thats 250 yards farther then my long drive jesus!
Why
bro imagine them actually knowing how to play golf with their power omg
@James Fondren golf requires an IQ higher than 85.
They also use illegal drivers
@@nysports5085 Most of these guys are single digit Handicappers, and a few are scratch. And no, they are not illegal drivers. The heads conform to the USGA rules, and the length of the shafts are maxed at 48".
I was a LDer in Hawaii so I know what I'm talking about.
Yeah I agree after researching
@@nysports5085 Nice!
I averaged about 20y longer than the top PGA pros average drives, and the guys swinging 145mph were averaging about 40y longer than me. I remember feeling proud hitting it 340 into a slight headwind, only to get absolutely slaughtered by almost 50 yards by the following LDer. I chucked my 3 drivers in my car and drove home. I only recently broke the last LD head a month ago, so I can now forget all that crap lol.
Murcia
i aint cleaning that up
Please use more Vegas puns in the opening.
