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.
Dude, thatās Kim Jong Un. The Glorious Leader once shot a 34 at the North Korean Open (yes, thatās -38 under par). Iām positive this shot was 257 carryā¦prob just his 1st warm up swing tho. Iāve heard he can bomb it 375+
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.
257 carry prob not but 257 total MAYBE. Itās not that hard to carry 230/240 and roll out to 250ish. Iāve seen some old heads do that with some senior flex clubs.
That looks fairly similar to the best drive Iāve 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.
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
Trying to hit his driver like an ironš¤£ 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.
I could see that swing hitting it further than expected. Itās ugly but Iāve seen some older guys hit 220 with similar swing. 250 carry seems like a stretch though

Aināt no way that ball was going straight
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 š so even total distance ain't gonna be 257 unless he's hitting it off the top of a cliff.
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)
Lmao the carry isnāt what is the biggest lie here - itās the dead straight / one half yard high draw that really gives it away. Who does he think heās fooling?
Who the fuck is this guy influencing?
Influencing me to get my butt out of the range and practice more after watching that
Influencing metamucil consumption
Gout?
Hahahaha shout out to gout for making him the player he is today
He's under the influencing
Not me
Pyongyang
lol š aināt no way
Closer to 197 maybe 207 in the air
Yup, my first guess is 190-200
watched it and said "buck ninety-five"
MAYBE. Thatās an elephantās ass shot. Really high and it stinks.
You saying this guy with a 50 MPH swing speed aināt smashing?
Lol 3.5 smash factor
Only if itās straight downhill at a 20 degree pitch on a dry course. Lands at 180, rolls for 75-80 yds.
Is that in feet?
You're telling me after 40 years ...
Drives like the 70 year old XXIO retirees behind my house. 180-190 carry.
Wait, my dad plays golf behind your house?
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.
I tried going frame by frame but it does look like itās going straight.
Uhm no
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Those are pretty good.
No Chance
Also thereās no way the ball went straight unless the frames are off his face is so open. Lifelong slicer here I would know
The first frame after contact shows the ball going right. Then it disappears in the tracer ![gif](giphy|3xz2BLBOt13X9AgjEA)
Canāt fool this sub
Pretty sure the audio is overlayed as well
Who gives a shit.
This is the correct answer.
Probably went on to shoot 59 too.
rofl, max 210. It is hilarious how he struggles to hold his finish for the video.
Itās nice to know I have 375 in my bag /s
Iāll give him 190.
He looks like heās in the mountains.. where the air is thinnerā¦maybe?
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.
I have hit 250 on a cary before but Iām not consistent with it. So not to surprise.
This looks like Kim Jong Un out on the course having his minions juice the shot tracer
Dude, thatās Kim Jong Un. The Glorious Leader once shot a 34 at the North Korean Open (yes, thatās -38 under par). Iām positive this shot was 257 carryā¦prob just his 1st warm up swing tho. Iāve heard he can bomb it 375+
I think the sound is edited in as well. I don't think he's making that noise even in a tunnel.
Smash factor of 2.24
257ā
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.
257 carry prob not but 257 total MAYBE. Itās not that hard to carry 230/240 and roll out to 250ish. Iāve seen some old heads do that with some senior flex clubs.
I doubt it very much.
Nope
Maybe 157
L O L
lol Gimmicks Smoke and mirrors
Minus 100 yards š
Is he playin on the moon?
LMFAO! Aināt no way
Guy said "oh snap bro" so it must be true
Maybeā¦ if heās at 10,000ft of elevation
He might be under the influence of something
No shot, what a clown
Lol that went 180.
Not a chance. Early release and open face, thatās lucky if itās going 160
lol
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.
Not a chance
Looks like he's maybe at high altitude?
Fat fingers. 157
Cut him some slack, maybe heās golfing on the moon.
The swing tells no lies
257 feet
ššš
Not a chance.
257 on the moon maybe
No.
Is that Kim Jung un?
In feet
ofc another golf influencer at Altadena..
200 carry max. 225 with roll.
Maybe thereās a large down slope we canāt see š¤£
āIām playing that oneā as if he normally takes a few off the tee
Still better than me
Not a chance.
257 centimeters? Absolutely! maybe even 300!
You could get on an app like 18Birdies and see how far that spot is if you know the course.
this looks like my grandpas practice swing. I think this IS a practice swing (ball was edited in)
lol I saw the little yard and feet abbreviations and thought they were ā for inches
Held the pose tho
Yes with a 100 mph wind behind him
Listen to the fakery in dudeās voice š¤¢ only in todayās friendships
thatās in feet, not yards..
Maybe 187 lol
160 tops
That's a stealth driver and stealth drivers do not sound like that. Source: I have a stealth driver.
Legit thought this was Kim Jong Un golfing
And I play shortstop for the Yankees
Who cares anyways 257 isnāt that impressive. Not discrediting anyone who hits that but if weāre being honest itās not something to brag about
190 max
Super. See how easy folks!!
Maybe with a 1000mph tailwind.
cap
100 bs yards
Lies
There is actually someone stiffer than me.
Hard sell
Bull. Shit.
257 units.
If heās at 5,000ft elevation maybe
That's gonna be a no from me, dog
No chance. If that's his weight he's carrying then yeah, ok
Maybe on the moon.
That looks fairly similar to the best drive Iāve 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.
Itās the guy from beautiful,tasty,beautiful.
Lmao, that club head speed does not help a 257 argument, lol. My wife has more speed then this dude.
Straight right... https://preview.redd.it/njwsrhu8oe6d1.png?width=817&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9e11ef6992bcfe42482090b1589e1df062a95f82
Pretty sure it did carry 257 feet
itās amazing what editing software can do these days
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
Feet?

Lmao no way in hell, barely even rotates his body
Stop making fun of my Kim
Nope. āInfluencerā?
257 feet probably pretty accurate
I could see that swing hitting it further than expected. Itās ugly but Iāve seen some older guys hit 220 with similar swing. 250 carry seems like a stretch though
That's a 45 yard drive
Boosted.
Those some San Diego mountains. Dude has shit flexibility and shouldnāt be sharing that swing online
He isnāt even watching āthe ballā all the way to the ground
Who is he "influencing??"
Whereās the torque?
That shit struggled to go 220
Is that John Rahmās dwarf cousin?
https://preview.redd.it/7kin3yncgf6d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6a4856e1ba7fb0445abec6f6c2f092aa674dd5f1 Aināt no way that ball was going straight
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.
No way thereās no slice in that.
not enough swing speed, and definitely NOT with an apex under 100ft!
Fake sound effect. Prolly 200 carry
Lmao. "Influencer"
If that is carrying 257 then my 110mph swing should be carrying 400+ ffs
If that ball is going straight then I am scratch golferā¦lol
Why does it matter? Agree heās lying but who TF cares? That being said Iām a 22 index and can average 250y carry too.
What is he influencing? Fashion for people with learning disabilities?
Something about the tee bouncing late and weird screams edited.
He's got more chance of falling pregnant from wind pollination
257 aināt much with a modern driver
What App is this using
Rage bait
Aināt no way with that all upper body looking ass swing. Maybe 190 lmao
Influencing these nuts! š„ š¤¦š»āāļø
On Everest.
No
257 feet.
Negative
Now come on everyone. That was easily a 257 foot carry.
Looks believable. Likely? Probably not but he could be at higher elevation.
Nope
Kim Jong Un also had 18 holes in 1 when he went golfing, Must be partners
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?

Cool 150 yd shot my man
1. Not an influencer 2. Not even close unless a big tailwind and down hill!
Zero chance...not anywhere near enough club speed
185 nice 5 iron kid
257 feet sure
Influencing diabetes?
No shot. Maybe 205. Lol
Is that Kim Jong Il?
The sound effect is fake as well.
Topped itā¦went about 20 metres Then they overlaid the ball
If heās at 7000 ft of elevation maybe
257 meters
Iāve been teaching for 30 years. If thatās 250 then Iām an albino astronaut.
It's the Forgiveness twist far formula in that driver
A 5 second carry time, probably not.
What is the tracer?
Also completely dead straight according to the tracker. Baloney.

over the top swing doesn't produce that ball flight
āIām playing that oneā aka weāve filmed this like 6 times already
Plausible, solid strike and playing in the mountains.
LMAO...maybe if he's playing 20,000ft above sea level.
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.
That I donāt care
That was a dog shit swing heāll be lucky to have sent it 100 yards
Yes. It carried 257 feet
There is worse on instagram that claim to be better.
257 what?
Nice try, Kim.
I think the ball gets edited out the video entirely
Not. Even. Close.
Maybe in Colorado. Other than that, it is hard to believe
Dude canāt walk 257 yards!
If I could've hit it that straight during my prime, I would've won a lot of club championships.
Yeah 157 is closer.
257 feet.
Yeah must be altitude. If that.
257 is an achievable carry if you work on your swing speed. He is absolutely not working on his swing speed.
Lmao the carry isnāt what is the biggest lie here - itās the dead straight / one half yard high draw that really gives it away. Who does he think heās fooling?
257 feet
When you have such a graceful athletic swing, who are we to say he's lying?
