8 Iron 185 Yards Smooth Swing Please Comment

[shakadzyan]

carry = 100 yards, cartpath contribution = 85 yards

[zachwebb1100]

this video was shot in Notre Dame

[weedNsyurp808]

nice posture douche

[dschultz6072]

looks good brother. don't let the short knockers bug you. they'd be the ones asking you how to hit it far if they ever saw you on the range.

[Kenweng04]

I can call my 7 iron an 8 iron too!!!!

[92mustangmug]

U just hit and don't even watch were it goes ??.... Wat a joke  And that was 155

[FullTimeHypocrite]

nice contact - as mentioned yardage doesnt matter, word of advice stop adding the yardage in the title, attracts the wrong kind of audience

[bensteeley]

the distance of that shot was the square root of 185

[Titleistplayer48]

what course is this? remington?

[Tommyve000]

omg you look like the hunchback of notre dame? ^^

[Krazy5771]

my coach honestly hits his 8 iron about 180 and your clubhead speed is no were near that of his. what a joke

[GolfingWoody]

rate my swing please

[hightenor123]

Question, why would something like yardage matter at all. Yardage is affected by wind, terrain, club design, and elevation. It is the quality of the contact and ball flight which concern me, not the yardage. An 8 Iron in denver may be a 160 vs 145 in massachussets, I hit a 7 Iron 215 recently, but the ground was frozen... lol... Professionals aren't concerned about how far they hit their irons, but whether they can hit them consistently the same distance every time with predictable flight.

[NicoKristianLund]

Can't see why he shouldn't be able to hit an 8 iron 185.

I'm 181 cm and weigh 64 kg, and even i hit it about 165, in summer in Denmark i hit my 7 iron 185. ;)

[richardd95]

ur divot was in front of the ball m8 u hit tht fat wht a fail.

[GadaffiTheHero]

185? Hahahaha! Come on!! More like 120! The ball flight was not even there to justify 130

[GoodGolferMan]

You need the groove sharpener com tool

[GolferMatt6601]

I must say you do have some wonderful lines in your swing- the real question is can you chip in putt.

PS. jealousy in anothers swing does not constitute being an ass hole!

[jonesyg591]

Bro i admire your passion for the game but i would invest in a Range Finder (Bushnell) Your Boys need to stop lying to you. Go make a name for yourself

[silowhore]

nice rhythm 

[gomezzz21]

dude , your clubs look way too short for you

[limpdoodle]

Nice hunchback.

[spartan051b]

@limpdoodle he is alot taller than the video shows im guessing.

[Ablenan]

i can hit a 8 iron 769 yards and driver for 1258 or 1528yards i forgot ...

[serofibrinous]

that didn't go 185 unless rolled down the cart path or hit a sprinkler head

[SimpleAz]

this guy is probably 6'5 and weighs 250lb, his swing looks real good and it doesn't take much to hit an 8 iron 180.

[GolfMatthew]

@SimpleAz

You're an idiot. Just shut the hell up. He's nowhere close to 6'5" or 250 pounds and if you knew anything about the swing you'd know his isn't powerful enough to hit a 7 iron 185, let alone an 8 iron.

[SimpleAz]

@GolfMatthew First of all this is a tall ass dude, don't believe me look at his bg on his page, he's atleast one foot taller than the car and he's slouching. He doesn't need to force his power because it's all there in the length of his arms and he can strike the ball.

[GolfMatthew]

@SimpleAz

Sigh. Just stop. Power doesn't come from arm length. I'm MUCH shorter than him and I'm still one of the longest people in my entire state. It's a matter of the swing being correct, which his isn't.

[dettigs]

sounds like a mis-hit to me!

[shagger67]

How far can you carry your driver? check out my vid let me know what u think



[maxxi11002244]

this one time my 9 iron hit the ball and no one was holding it.. 196..

[kaballas123]

you should have kept walking at stop making shit videos

[hlggolf21]

@ColdAsHe11 no i dont forget it.. but i dont pick it up like a just ripped a driver right down the fairway like a dumbass. and neither does anyone on tour you would know that if you knew shit about this sport

[hlggolf21]

who bends down and picks up their tee after hitting an 8 iron? looks foolish

[ColdAsHe11]

@hlggolf21 So you just forgo your tee if you hit an iron? You're an idiot.

[ant7797]

looks good

[1tontomato]

Don't believe the hype, all you can do is laugh.

[nazunogolf]

fucken 8 irons bent to a 1 iron loft with a jet fan behind ya to help maybe

[dface1996]

It's quite good but I dnt think it's 185 dude

Check my video out and subascribe if u want.

[L96EYE]

Yes..... if you hit it twice.

[adamsbeer]

I hit my 8 iron 240 and my driver 470

[roycesboy]

@adamsbeer jamie sidlowski?

[Hankywu]

@adamsbeer wow impressive jamie sadlowski hits his 7 iron 250

[sickiteo1]

@adamsbeer all you need for that is the zolex driver. BAMMM!

[hut]

Nice golf swing by the way!!!

[hut]

Its all about score anyway.....

Id rather be amazing with the putter than to have monster distance anyway!!!!!

[hut]

I hit my 8 iron 160.....

I'm 5/7 155lbs... besides.. just because it says 8 iron doesn't mean the loft is

standard 8 iron!!

[hut]

I play with a guy who hits his wedge 185!!!!

[toreman81]

150 if ur lucky. so ur saying u hit ur 8 iron as far as mcilroy?

[TheBitchslapyo]

Aha, that was so heavy man! You suck!

[o0oSN1P3Ro0o]

You want a comment, here...

[anasamati]

wow

[swimfastguy35]

185 my ass. maybe downwind and 10 bounces on the cart path

[Wiz2272]

8 iron fat, slow ass swing = 135 after roll

[Shaftsus]

lol 185 yards no way, a 5 iron I hit well at 190 lol....

[adamsbeer]

this is laughable...185 with an 8 iron, fuck you!!!

[MrHarry634]

You must of been about 30 yards short then..

[TeamScags]

@MrHarry634 I heard that. 185 with 8 iron is taking a hard cut at it.

[JasonHickey12]

I think you should get longer clubs. The arch in your back is really bad.

[Mrsovietgolf]

yeh by the way i can hit a lob 380 carry, why lie m8

[TrailerTrash62]

nice wish you could teach me that.

[theoriginalTeej]

@bubbawatsonisbest Tis his tempo and club head speed, seein how you love bubba so much, as do I! Yeah yeah!, you should know this lol ;)

[bubbawatsonisbeast]

how does he hit it so far? just look at his upper back

[bunkerputt]

I actually believe the description.

[helenathena]

@joesphporta if you hit you pw 150 im pretty sure yourself can crank an 8 iron to the length, and id say 15 percent of the tour can hit it that far.. not 1 percent

[GolfMatthew]

@helenathena

Try again. Less than 5% hit their irons that far. Research people.

[bensteeley]

good shot but not 185 unless your gary woodland that is

[toxicsponge]

I BET U SHUV THT CLUB UP UR ARSE U FUKIN DIK HED... ALSO UR WANK AT GOLF

[nikepumps123]

love remmington

[helenathena]

ive hit a 8 iron 180 before, but crap i went 100 %, and i do think this is 185 , its not hard to reach swing speeds like that if uve been playing for a while, like a 9iron 150 yards for me now a days feels very soft and goes 140 if wind picks up , i believe he can crank it up out there, he hits it in the middle, you can tell because his back swing is nicely on plane, i mean its really not hard when you have a good swing guys, ive hit 7 iron 190, 6 iron 200, and only on the tee i do that

[Jospehporta]

@helenathena The swing doesn't have that much lag or speed. Also to hit an 8 iron 185 you'd need an 8 iron SS of about 105 mph, which is greater than 99% of PGA tour players. Also the lofts of clubs are different and make a huge difference.

So no it didn't carry 185 yards, the mechanics just aren't there. Hitting a 9 iron 150 yards isn't hard, I'd choke down on a 9 iron to get it down to 150. I'd normally hit a hard 49* PW about 150, at sea level.

[remmy100]

Would u happen to have any tips for speed? I have a slightly bigger than 90 degree shoulder turn and lagging the club is no problem. The problem is that my CH speed is inconsistent. One day it's 115, then 95 the next.....without changing anything. Quite frustrating...

[MrKyvegas00]

that's not 185yrds that's 185" dumbass

[fanofreyes]

185 8 iron? Yeah and I hit my putter when i'm inside 100 yards. Anyone can lie on youtube, but at least make the video look like it went 185...nowhere close buddy.

[ls1eater]

@fanofreyes smell that...smells like jealousy

[niumj13]

@ls1eater wtf? that's not jealousy, it's the truth. most amateurs hit an 8 iron around 150-160. i hit mine only about 145-150 (yards). i doubt you even hit your 8 iron past 170

[ls1eater]

@niumj13 it's called jealousy when your trying to call the dude out, I hit a smooth 8 iron 167 just so you know

[niumj13]

@ls1eater yea, so i'm right....

[ls1eater]

@niumj13 smooth 8 big guy I can pond one out 175-180 if I had to, really not that hard....

[niumj13]

@ls1eater yea, sure you can.

[andycaon]

you didnt even hit it that far, you suck

[Sigurdurhelgi]

if you hit 8 iron 185 yards why aren't you the remax world long drive champion? you should be able to hit driver over 380 yards... dickhead

[SimpleAz]

@Sigurdurhelgi what kind of math did you apply to get that retarded number? jamie sadlowski hits his 7 iron 260 and he carries the ball a good 380 with a standard length driver.

[GolfMatthew]

@SimpleAz WRONG. 380 is with the LD driver. Do you people EVER research things?

[ande1148]

Nice tempo and smooth swing yes, but no real power or ball compression. No way it went 185.

[SuperMilo15]

@MriggyDC its not about speed to a swing its about tempo speed does help but tempo is requiered and also good technique speed has little factor

[chemicalpro]

must've bounced on a cart path & then onto a buggy which it rode to 185y

[taffbanjo]

American yards must be much shorter than British yards (like British and American gallons). This is why every American on Youtube drives the ball 300 "yards" and can hit an eight iron 185. I bet their anglers catch record breaking fish every day, too!

[flatpicker15]

I can hit an 8 iron 200 yards if i deloft my club, play it in the back, swing as hard as i can, and make perfect contact. A 185 yd 8 iron for this guy (well over 6 ft) is not unbelievable at all. In fact i'm sure if he really wanted to, he could crank it out there a lot further than that.

[golfmaniac007]

@flatpicker15 i would bet you could not hit an 8 iron that far on normal conditions.

[flatpicker15]

@golfmaniac007 obviously.. in actual play, i wouldn't try to hit an 8 iron any more than 160 yards

[Jospehporta]

@flatpicker15 It is with a swing like his.

[MrIggyDC]

you DO NOT hit an 8 iron 185. you aren't bubba watson

[rkelly6946]

@MrIggyDC Im only 5'9", and I hit a 6 iron 185... my club head speeds aren't very high either... 185 with an 8 iron isn't all that unbelievable...

[MrIggyDC]

@rkelly6946 are you kidding me? the guy doesn't even take a full swing, its about a 3 quarter swing, and he's not swinging fast at all. By the way that swing is, he cannot possibly of hit that ball 185 yard with an 8 iron

[emncaity]

@MrIggyDC

Depends on conditions and lie. It's not impossible. It's just that you're not going to _average_ 185 with that swing, with an 8-iron, approximately at sea level, on level ground, with no wind, from a clean lie that produces full backspin. There's also the fact that many par-3s will have a stated distance that is shorter than the actual distance. Still, it really is a good swing, unlike a lot of the posers out here.

[emncaity]

@emncaity

Also: It depends on the 8-iron. Lofts on irons are nearly a full club lower than they were when I was in my 20s (and playing a lot of competitive golf with Wilson Staffs). It's absolutely stupid how long people can hit it now, with ball technology, lower lofts, and other tech aspects. I was one of the longest good players around (plus-2 hcp) back when almost everybody was playing persimmon, and here I am 25 years later hitting it 40 yards farther off the tee. It's nuts.

[marylandm3]

hmmmm, swing seems to have one problem, suck cock.

[steevo51]

I don't get the hoopla 185 is very doable with an 8 iron, but can you drive 345, or hit your five wood 290?

[rkelly6946]

@steevo51 lol... look how tall this guy is... im guessing ball speed isnt a problem for him...

[steevo51]

@rkelly6946 You missed the point completely, I was saying I don't get the big fanfare about hitting an 8 iron 185, I can hit mine 200 yards.

[FlushContact]

Well, if you're in like Colorado I could believe it's 185.

[Willsstrs]

I hit my 8 iron 105 yards, but deadly accurate.

[ill2k7]

'8 Iron 185 Yards Smooth Swing' KISS MY ARSE!

[sargesw]

good swing mate. nice and compact. v similar to how i do it.

[MedicAlv1]

Who's your dad?

[golfmaniac007]

if you can hit 8 iron 185, you don't need a driver

[danmaster90]

how long does it take to learn to drive a ball

[Inmotion70]

Fantastic! Supple quickness just like Mike Austin. Effortless power..absolutely believe its 185.

[uniquenewyork6715]

Nice swing very on plane. Looks good but I don't know about 185 with an 8 iron... maybe like 170-175 but 185 doesn't seem like it would happen looking at your swing. Check out my swing.

[055697]

nice easy-looking swing. what clubs do you use?

[theestrogenius]

185 eight iron you must have big gaps between clubs

[2005mtfuji]

I see a lot of vid's about distance but what is the handicap?

[kuneckid05]

1000

[cuckoowho]

wow....I don't see why you need improvement...

[youwatchilaugh]

nice swing the only thing i would say would be to back away from the ball a little and bend down but it seems that ur doin good anyways

[sportsman214]

nice shot... its pretty ridiculous how lengthy you are. I myself hit my 8 iron 150-160 which is fairly lengthy for most people. I find it insane when I find longer hitters than me so nice job bro. Keep it up.

[cotegt]

your setup looks like you play golf often, you know your routine, nice swing, and hitting an 8 iron 185 is ridiculous even for hitting it off the deck.

[TheHoyster13]

how u keep your right elbow so low??

Mine always goes so high!!!

[STIFLER251981]

honestly I don't have any mechanics that I work on, my swing was never coached it was just something I naturally picked up on by watching golf on TV.

The only thing I will suggest is grab 2 small towels and put one under each arm and take an 8 iron and work on keeping your swing short and compact. hit them about 50 yards shorter than normal.

[rkelly6946]

@TheHoyster13 a great drill to keep your right elbow low, is to try and complete a swing with something in your arm-pit... I used a odessy putter head cover... If you can complete the swing, without the head cover dropping out of your arm-pit, you will will unconsciously do this on the course after enough repetition... and you will notice your elbow will stay very close to your side...
