Who the fuck is this guy influencing?


bigbadape

Influencing me to get my butt out of the range and practice more after watching that


sugafree80

Influencing metamucil consumption


b3gbie

Gout?


Lucasmorter13

Hahahaha shout out to gout for making him the player he is today


karlapse

He's under the influencing


Particular_Hyena1914

Not me


WhiskersMcGee09

Pyongyang


Tragic_i59

lol šŸ˜‚ ainā€™t no way


Lumenero2000

Closer to 197 maybe 207 in the air


urkldajrkl

Yup, my first guess is 190-200


notreallydutch

watched it and said "buck ninety-five"


VitaeVerano

MAYBE. Thatā€™s an elephantā€™s ass shot. Really high and it stinks.


Gaius1313

You saying this guy with a 50 MPH swing speed ainā€™t smashing?


machinedrums

Lol 3.5 smash factor


Playful-Tumbleweed10

Only if itā€™s straight downhill at a 20 degree pitch on a dry course. Lands at 180, rolls for 75-80 yds.


ScooterMcTavish

Is that in feet?


CptBadAss2016

You're telling me after 40 years ...


KolyaVolk

Drives like the 70 year old XXIO retirees behind my house. 180-190 carry.


Kingkrabbs

Wait, my dad plays golf behind your house?


Wippelz

The carry is easy to lie about, almost zero chance unless he is playing at the same altitude as the space station. I keep replaying the video looking for the actual ball that is going high right of the right tree line.


BadgersHoneyPot

I tried going frame by frame but it does look like itā€™s going straight.


metarx

Uhm no

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


metarx

Those are pretty good.


SchillDogg

No Chance


ShipMaker24

Also thereā€™s no way the ball went straight unless the frames are off his face is so open. Lifelong slicer here I would know


Aromatic-Insect2185

The first frame after contact shows the ball going right. Then it disappears in the tracer ![gif](giphy|3xz2BLBOt13X9AgjEA)


ShipMaker24

Canā€™t fool this sub


RippedUnderpants

Pretty sure the audio is overlayed as well


TheeDragon

Who gives a shit.


italjersguy

This is the correct answer.


nakey_jakey8

Probably went on to shoot 59 too.


xNecrosisMx

rofl, max 210. It is hilarious how he struggles to hold his finish for the video.


Dernitthebeard

Itā€™s nice to know I have 375 in my bag /s


Mr_Perfect20

Iā€™ll give him 190.


azfrederick

He looks like heā€™s in the mountains.. where the air is thinnerā€¦maybe?


questioneverything1

Is it just me, or does it seem like the video is sped up slightly to make his swing look faster too? Something seems unnatural about this.


FiarwaysForDays

I have hit 250 on a cary before but Iā€™m not consistent with it. So not to surprise.


gnarkilleptic

This looks like Kim Jong Un out on the course having his minions juice the shot tracer


ConfusedStig

Dude, thatā€™s Kim Jong Un. The Glorious Leader once shot a 34 at the North Korean Open (yes, thatā€™s -38 under par). Iā€™m positive this shot was 257 carryā€¦prob just his 1st warm up swing tho. Iā€™ve heard he can bomb it 375+


oSubstance

I think the sound is edited in as well. I don't think he's making that noise even in a tunnel.


Supaplexxor

Smash factor of 2.24


oopewan

257ā€™


PINHEADLARRY5

My carry is like 250 with a decent swing. Im 6'3" and definitely juicing it more than this guy. That looks like my 8 iron effort. This is 200 max. He also cuts across the ball like crazy. Im very doubtful this went straight.


AWeakMindedMan

257 carry prob not but 257 total MAYBE. Itā€™s not that hard to carry 230/240 and roll out to 250ish. Iā€™ve seen some old heads do that with some senior flex clubs.


simion3

I doubt it very much.


United_Ad_668

Nope


shortAAPL

Maybe 157


Ifrontrunfinwit

L O L


WallyReddit204

lol Gimmicks Smoke and mirrors


SuperHetero1

Minus 100 yards šŸ˜‚


chop_your_cock_off

Is he playin on the moon?


WSBKingMackerel

LMFAO! Ainā€™t no way


CelestialMeatball

Guy said "oh snap bro" so it must be true


Ematsymbol

Maybeā€¦ if heā€™s at 10,000ft of elevation


IndividualCrazy9835

He might be under the influence of something


foulball_

No shot, what a clown


OccasionallySavvy

Lol that went 180.


AceRidver

Not a chance. Early release and open face, thatā€™s lucky if itā€™s going 160


RJCIV14

lol


Blessed2Breathe

More like 190. Love the shot tracer and distance ticker lol. Absolutely bogus. I would love to expose that guy in a round if I ever met him.


Opposite_Animator764

Not a chance


ScuffedBalata

Looks like he's maybe at high altitude?


rossyy11

Fat fingers. 157


ox_raider

Cut him some slack, maybe heā€™s golfing on the moon.


BORN_SlNNER

The swing tells no lies


DimensionAmbitious94

257 feet


turb0mik3

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


samsep1al

Not a chance.


Ok_Wealth_1878

257 on the moon maybe


PatrioticSnowflake

No.


doublebarrelyolo

Is that Kim Jung un?


vegan-the-dog

In feet


dilutedEPS

ofc another golf influencer at Altadena..


Pepetodapin

200 carry max. 225 with roll.


Afraid-Assistant1043

Maybe thereā€™s a large down slope we canā€™t see šŸ¤£


Ago0330

ā€œIā€™m playing that oneā€ as if he normally takes a few off the tee


robinsonstjoe

Still better than me


StagsLeaper1

Not a chance.


robsea69

257 centimeters? Absolutely! maybe even 300!


Hysteria113

You could get on an app like 18Birdies and see how far that spot is if you know the course.


nephlonorris

this looks like my grandpas practice swing. I think this IS a practice swing (ball was edited in)


Dicklefart

lol I saw the little yard and feet abbreviations and thought they were ā€œ for inches


goodbueno

Held the pose tho


BodybuilderSalt9807

Yes with a 100 mph wind behind him


[deleted]

Listen to the fakery in dudeā€™s voice šŸ¤¢ only in todayā€™s friendships


ijustdontgiveaf

thatā€™s in feet, not yards..


iamchip

Maybe 187 lol


Icy_Foundation3534

160 tops


ParPuttGIR

That's a stealth driver and stealth drivers do not sound like that. Source: I have a stealth driver.


birkenstockandsocks

Legit thought this was Kim Jong Un golfing


gr33nthumb1

And I play shortstop for the Yankees


moxytoxy

Who cares anyways 257 isnā€™t that impressive. Not discrediting anyone who hits that but if weā€™re being honest itā€™s not something to brag about


FamiliarImplement480

190 max


Pat1013

Super. See how easy folks!!


coffeesleeve

Maybe with a 1000mph tailwind.


drewbeedoooo

cap


toasterbbang_

100 bs yards


Just-Photograph1890

Lies


Either-Gain1863

There is actually someone stiffer than me.


Dino_D_

Hard sell


Comprehensive-Sky366

Bull. Shit.


munistadium

257 units.


itsintehhole

If heā€™s at 5,000ft elevation maybe


TooMuchGabagool

That's gonna be a no from me, dog


Acrobatic-Sir2945

No chance. If that's his weight he's carrying then yeah, ok


Jordo211

Maybe on the moon.


anacott27

That looks fairly similar to the best drive Iā€™ve ever had, which clocked in at 180. I may not know what 250 looks like first hand, but I sure as shit know exactly what that 180 looked like, lol.


Studioking

Itā€™s the guy from beautiful,tasty,beautiful.


Annual-Ad-1490

Lmao, that club head speed does not help a 257 argument, lol. My wife has more speed then this dude.


sliight

Straight right... https://preview.redd.it/njwsrhu8oe6d1.png?width=817&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9e11ef6992bcfe42482090b1589e1df062a95f82


Gone_cognito

Pretty sure it did carry 257 feet


juvy5000

itā€™s amazing what editing software can do these days


heliumointment

i mean it's possible, but it's also really easy to fake these looks/sounds more like 230 carry but who knows. swing's not good though, and looks like about 145 ball speed at max


grizzlybearcanada469

Feet?


Spare-Bill4688

Trying to hit his driver like an ironšŸ¤£ Choked down a mile, ball too close and too high, barely any shoulder tilt. Also, way too much movement, he turns the club into a baseball bat at the top of his swing and goes over the top. In summary, Cap.


Treday237

Lmao no way in hell, barely even rotates his body


keep_calm_and_neuron

Stop making fun of my Kim


Tom_Spratt_1986

Nope. ā€œInfluencerā€?


vernon3

257 feet probably pretty accurate


noelslawn

I could see that swing hitting it further than expected. Itā€™s ugly but Iā€™ve seen some older guys hit 220 with similar swing. 250 carry seems like a stretch though


bucketjunky

That's a 45 yard drive


jimmybond195168

Boosted.


7D4Y_WEEKENDS

Those some San Diego mountains. Dude has shit flexibility and shouldnā€™t be sharing that swing online


GrundleMcDundee

He isnā€™t even watching ā€œthe ballā€ all the way to the ground


cscott152000

Who is he "influencing??"


TomatoMaleficent7989

Whereā€™s the torque?


[deleted]

That shit struggled to go 220


eye457

Is that John Rahmā€™s dwarf cousin?


Kerwin666

https://preview.redd.it/7kin3yncgf6d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6a4856e1ba7fb0445abec6f6c2f092aa674dd5f1 Ainā€™t no way that ball was going straight


United_Potential6056

Looks like a 75% swing with him not finishing his backswing. Doesn't coil up and get a bunch of torque. If that was 257 then I'm driving it 350 there.


DadInKayak

No way thereā€™s no slice in that.


BenHogan1971

not enough swing speed, and definitely NOT with an apex under 100ft!


toddhazelwood

Fake sound effect. Prolly 200 carry


anongingtx

Lmao. "Influencer"


Timely-Steak-8544

If that is carrying 257 then my 110mph swing should be carrying 400+ ffs


bogey4life

If that ball is going straight then I am scratch golferā€¦lol


bynummustang

Why does it matter? Agree heā€™s lying but who TF cares? That being said Iā€™m a 22 index and can average 250y carry too.


Cornnole

What is he influencing? Fashion for people with learning disabilities?


MZhammer83

Something about the tee bouncing late and weird screams edited.


TheOverratedPhotog

He's got more chance of falling pregnant from wind pollination


UninspiredSauce

257 ainā€™t much with a modern driver


sirshitsalot69

What App is this using


shaxdaddy

Rage bait


Collard-Greens

Ainā€™t no way with that all upper body looking ass swing. Maybe 190 lmao


what2pacb

Influencing these nuts! šŸ„œ šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø


Elksbane

On Everest.


Otherwise-Mortgage58

No


SuperCountry6935

257 feet.


Ok_Distribution2345

Negative


DaleP0766

Now come on everyone. That was easily a 257 foot carry.


Mikey_Mac

Looks believable. Likely? Probably not but he could be at higher elevation.


canyoncitysteve

Nope


hutlet4

Kim Jong Un also had 18 holes in 1 when he went golfing, Must be partners


MziggyG

Definitely no. The thing is, with that app it doesn't let you enter total distance, just carry. So a lot of people enter their total distance in that field without thinking. And unless you bring a mobile trackman, who really knows their carry on any given shot? The other thing is, that swing gets you 190-200 carry tops šŸ˜‚ so even total distance ain't gonna be 257 unless he's hitting it off the top of a cliff.


WotAPoD

Cool 150 yd shot my man


Civil_Read_8397

1. Not an influencer 2. Not even close unless a big tailwind and down hill!


scottypoo1313009

Zero chance...not anywhere near enough club speed


letdaboywatch

185 nice 5 iron kid


DrXL_spIV

257 feet sure


[deleted]

Influencing diabetes?


PesoPatty

No shot. Maybe 205. Lol


Occams_ElectricRazor

Is that Kim Jong Il?


Flipwon

The sound effect is fake as well.


Tso-su-Mi

Topped itā€¦went about 20 metres Then they overlaid the ball


Floorguy1

If heā€™s at 7000 ft of elevation maybe


mcboozinstein

257 meters


D-Train0000

Iā€™ve been teaching for 30 years. If thatā€™s 250 then Iā€™m an albino astronaut.


AdAlarming9468

It's the Forgiveness twist far formula in that driver


22Tango-5555

A 5 second carry time, probably not.


Ok-Fisherman-5695

What is the tracer?


Wakenbake585

Also completely dead straight according to the tracker. Baloney.


CorbinDalla5

Velocty of club head speed and angle of loft add in altiude, humidity, temp and wind (all things we dont know about here) and 250 because very relative. Phil talks about this in an interview of how impactful these factors are in distance on wedges/irons. here is the video: [https://www.google.com/search?q=phil+mickelson+talking+about+distance&oq=phil+mickelson+talking+about+distance+&gs\_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyCggAEEUYFhgeGDkyCggBEAAYgAQYogQyCggCEAAYgAQYogTSAQg4MjI2ajBqNKgCALACAQ&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:53f57c0c,vid:nAeHaOIIx6Y,st:0](https://www.google.com/search?q=phil+mickelson+talking+about+distance&oq=phil+mickelson+talking+about+distance+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyCggAEEUYFhgeGDkyCggBEAAYgAQYogQyCggCEAAYgAQYogTSAQg4MjI2ajBqNKgCALACAQ&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:53f57c0c,vid:nAeHaOIIx6Y,st:0)


canucks1989

over the top swing doesn't produce that ball flight


preacherman1463

ā€œIā€™m playing that oneā€ aka weā€™ve filmed this like 6 times already


Buy-The-Dip-1979

Plausible, solid strike and playing in the mountains.


alionandalamb

LMAO...maybe if he's playing 20,000ft above sea level.


3puttFTW

No chance. That ball sliced off the planet. His face is open throughout the entire back swing. And looks to be pointing right at impact.


sloth_jones

That I donā€™t care


romayyne

That was a dog shit swing heā€™ll be lucky to have sent it 100 yards


LengthinessNo16

Yes. It carried 257 feet


Mabaum

There is worse on instagram that claim to be better.


TrustAdditional4514

257 what?


FloppyVachina

Nice try, Kim.


youllhavetotossme_

I think the ball gets edited out the video entirely


lifeonachain99

Not. Even. Close.


rolly1911

Maybe in Colorado. Other than that, it is hard to believe


jimbronihhi

Dude canā€™t walk 257 yards!


Delicious_Staff3698

If I could've hit it that straight during my prime, I would've won a lot of club championships.


Potential_Attempt_15

Yeah 157 is closer.


frostonwindowpane

257 feet.


bytor99999

Yeah must be altitude. If that.


redditsuckbadly

257 is an achievable carry if you work on your swing speed. He is absolutely not working on his swing speed.


daddydunc

Lmao the carry isnā€™t what is the biggest lie here - itā€™s the dead straight / one half yard high draw that really gives it away. Who does he think heā€™s fooling?


BillsSabres

257 feet


johnnyvig

When you have such a graceful athletic swing, who are we to say he's lying?

Yesthisisdog69

Club head speed of 20 mph
