@VladimirCelengsky-ze9ok I've significantly shortened my backswing just due to lack of flexibility, I still have the power but my control is way better
At high elevation on Santana golf course in Spain I hit a 314 yard green with a 5 wood off the tee. That's still the best shot I've ever done 15 years later haha
For years I tried building clubhead speed with everything except my wrists. With my driver, I went from 105 mph (240-250 yrds.) to 115 mph (305 yrds.) by simply working on releasing the club at impact faster by flipping my wrist. I have always had degenerative disk disease and spinal stenosis in my back.
My best drive was on a 370 par 4. Bounced it off the cart path and it rolled all the down it and rolled into the rough. Probably 350 yards, absolutely mental for me considering I’m 135 pounds
Saw the 3rd - Tommy Fleetwoods drive in person, what the video doesn’t show is that this drive was his over an obstacle of some really tall firs, the sound the connection made was holy.
Amazing how these guys hit a golf ball. Only club in my bag that does not behave is my driver. Cannot believe I am a 3 handicapper but hit my driver like a 15.
but tiger had bad mechanics that screwed up he back and knees. with a lot of these guys, they don't seem to have the same issues that tiger had/has. or maybe its genetics?
Musik much much much too loud!!!! What a pain to watch. Probably not necessary at all. Some statistics as to why they made the top 20 pick would make the video slightly more interesting.
This is weak. The title of this piece is "Best Drives of the Year", and they don't show the length of the holes or more importantly - the distances these balls were hit! Give me a break - they generate fancy graphics on each countdown number, but they cannot even pop in a quick yardage of the drive?
The editing needs work. You don't need the zooming intro, it hurts the eyes. We want to see the shot... please don't outshine the shot. Also, the shot is too fast, 2 more seconds of set up.
I just mean, why isn't this incredible shot of Garcia when i hit the ball Over the water on a Par 4 and then he made an Eagle in this list? I don't know anymore on what golf course it was. Many shots aren't that good i think
7:40 I appreciate you making him point at boxes that aren’t there!
2:04 is one of the most gorgeous looking and sounding drives I've ever seen
Agree. 4:19 also a beautiful drive
That sound at 2:07 is pure bliss.
Yeah, what driver is that?
I have no idea.

*hits almost a stinger that rolls forever
commentator: "big high towering fade"
Ikr
I could watch Rory hit golf balls all day long. I think he has the smoothest, prettiest swing in golf.
Adam Scott thooo
@@YouHaveNoBalls Can't argue with that choice. Adam has a sweet swing.
1:07 that view
1:25 Crazy the distance Rahm got with a relatively short backswing
@VladimirCelengsky-ze9ok I've significantly shortened my backswing just due to lack of flexibility, I still have the power but my control is way better
Having the honour of seeing Rory drive is truly remarkable
Amani Wanyoike you should watch DJ. I swear hearing him shooting a par 4 is like music.
Soon pros will only need three clubs. A driver, a wedge and a putter.
Have you forgotten par 5s mate...
@@anantbhartia8833 you’ll still only need the 3
@@blissshastings1818 for real they got a 52 degree and they’re good for the second par 5 shot
8 iron instead of wedge for par 5s + bump and runs
@@donnchadhwhelton3505 yeah actually you’re right, maybe a 7 i for the 650+ yds

2:07 That sound is class
What more impressive is the camera work and how the ball is pretty much always in the frame
1:07 is just a beautiful picture

Wish the fairways at my club would give me 70 yards of run, I need it
I'll take soft fairways any day.
Half of these courses are links courses. Those courses are meant to have firm turf.
😂👍🏻
they are fairways though
Alexander Canella for sure! 160 out is way easier to play than 100 or less.
Obviously , gorgeous fingz !
I love these highlights I think the pga should have more of these
Bubba's big fade\slice and the way he steps out of it is still amazing to watch every time.
Love European tour videos and highlights!
Better then pga tour
If so why no spectators? Why no distance?
back at it again
Rory has the best swing. Period.

I choice lucas,tommy fleetwood,rory...up and bottom swing posture ..very nice followthrough..
Some say #8 is still rolling to this day.....
2:07 What a great sound!
I love hearing people from the UK saying oh that's miles down there...
Saw the 3rd - Tommy Fleetwoods drive in person, what the video doesn’t show is that this drive was his over an obstacle of some really tall firs, the sound the connection made was holy.
The actual best drive of the year was Molinari's on the final hole of the Open.
He hit a lovely one on 17 too if i recall correctly
At this point if you DON'T show the flight of the ball with the virtual line then I won't watch.
Agree!
Or the distance. 😣
or show how many yards at least
Heaven forbid.
If there’s no graphics.... it didn’t happen! lol
I love RydersCup tracking and it shows lays...PGA put that in your videos and try at least to put some tracking in old videos
European tour showing other pro channels how its done
The music kind of sucked ass tho
@justsomeguy Have you not seen cameron champ? He could out drive anyone from Europe.
Always a better watch
WestCoast FiRe you ain’t Cameron champ are you? Why would you suck up to someone you don’t know. Geezer don’t even know you
Thomas P once gave me his ball what a legend!!!
Oliver Rudkin sweet!
Balls*
Lucky fortune to you.
Great content
Fleetwoods drive was insane
Rahm doing it with a Yellow Pages in his back pocket too !!
😅😅😅
I once drove a ball 510 metres, then palmed it gently onto the green from my golf cart.
Nice
Exactly why I always have 2 balls in my pocket, you never lose a ball that way, you always find it laying just right!
1:30 I use the Taylormade M4 Driver, it sure is a beast, but I'm planning to switch to the M6
Only one by Rory? The best driver ever.
Driving distances?
Long apparently? 🤷🏼♂️
At least 150 yards.
Boom boom drives for the rest of the day.
Whenever I hit a cut I try to channel Bubba. Mine only fly about 270 though :o, he's a monster with that shot.
Love the way Bubba drives
WOW, I'm supposed to be impressed by PRO golfers hitting it further than they normally would WITH a tail wind???
You clicked the video?
Next time please put a small caption to tell how far they went
"just say li hao put it in the greenside bunker" - just goes to show that these are the best drives *televised*
Amazing how these guys hit a golf ball. Only club in my bag that does not behave is my driver. Cannot believe I am a 3 handicapper but hit my driver like a 15.
I came and knew rory would have a few
Fancy seeing Gavin Green here
Need Jack “THE HAMMER” Hamm to give ‘em a lesson in a looooong drive.
I wonder how many years players can be swinging this fast? tiger is a perfect example
but tiger had bad mechanics that screwed up he back and knees. with a lot of these guys, they don't seem to have the same issues that tiger had/has. or maybe its genetics?
Koepka has a knee injury cause of swinging this hard and same for DJ
That last shot by Ricky Fowler - 458 yds! Are you kidding me? That's almost a different time zone.
I'm all for long driving but the technology in golf today makes some of the older courses obsolete. Time to introduce a reduced flight ball.
Either that or dial back the legal club specs so the ball doesn’t fly like a pigeon migrating to the other side of the country
Muy bueno
Wouldnt call that as high 😅 4:19
No distance given for drives?
Its weird but when i play golf i have this music blasting- great choice!
Nice brhu I nailed it 290 the other day djent sweep fiddles brhu
Musik much much much too loud!!!! What a pain to watch. Probably not necessary at all.
Some statistics as to why they made the top 20 pick would make the video slightly more interesting.
Top 20s are the most probably ones to-date.
No. 6, Irish Open: They made out of 571 yrds = 552 mtrs. The right result would be 522 mtrs!
스윙에 정답은없다.
다만 멕킬로이의 스윙은 완벽할뿐
ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
How do u drive a 400 yard green how ?!?
music is great- not annoying at all
What is the point of watching without showing every shots with the distance shot yard??????
Incredible and unfair at the same damn time
Beajjuregard almost drives a par 4 and "It's in good shape"
Letting us know the carry and total distance would be nice. Just saying.
should add distance to info
No distances!? Did these go 75 yards? 1,000 yards!? We'll never know.
Where’s Brooks?
Courses on tour are so fast, any average joe hitting a good drive would get 30 more yards than usual
0:21 0:21

I'm japanese. what is this BGM?
Could’ve told us how far they went
Lil Panini very far
how tf does bubba hit it so far

2:07 sounds like he used a whip to drive
On a good day my drive goes 100 yards...
Tomorrow will be a good day
But not in 2 days
I came here for the music
2:09
458 yds.........wow Ricky
Watch this video with title “Want to know the golf secret?”.
yea, a lot of these elite golfers are real jerks.
what's special about #2?
Yeah, I don't get it either. can't see where it lands. is it far from green? How long is the drive? etc etc.
Once you mute the video to silence the annoying music, the drives are less impressive.
Top 10 generic free to use way to loud background rock music of 2018
I saw Lucas Bjerregaard hit a driver it was scary.
I think Tiger Woods has the good response on golf
The editing needs work. You don't need the zooming intro, it hurts the eyes. We want to see the shot... please don't outshine the shot. Also, the shot is too fast, 2 more seconds of set up.
Nice try ricky , tiger hit one in hawaii 498 ... longest ever in pga
11 was a 3 wood... :)
dj is the best wye?he ant on the vid?
michael galloway probably cos he doesn't play on the European Tour 😉
What's with the crappy noise?
Me at the start: half of these are prob Rory after: they were
ok good
While these drives are quite impressive, it would sure be nice if they added the stats like how far the ball carried, etc
wow great thx I hit 230 yds
Another perfectly good video ruined by crappy music.
💪💪💪❤❤💙💙👍👍👍
