Tiger Woods - The Most Extraordinary Shot Story

[tomvk77]

I can tell for sure that nobody can make that shot but tiger! For sure i would play out sideways and still be happy if i get it to the fairway! Mcilroy that shot no fucking way

[DCUPtoejuice]

and then he got knee surgery

[drakey27]

If he made this swing with a driver he would out drive anyone in the world! Forget Bubba Watson and Gary Woodland!

[lancer89032]

Was Tiger juicing on performance enhancing drugs to make this superman shot? I wonder...

[andrew9966]

Id like to see Rory McIlroy pull off that shot..

[jgzero23]

no wonder his left leg is fucked, that power and torque in those magic shots



[MRdontneednousername]

a cubic yard of ohio lol, david feherty is hilarious

[seanaudi13]

Hitting a PW that far isnt that difficult. Accuracy is nearly impossible for normal golfers swinging that hard though. That's pretty amazing.

[k2skier1212]

@seanaudi13 The average tour pro hits their pitching wedge around 135-140yd with 145-155yd as an extreme on tour. 190yd alone is remarkable, but tiger also plays weak lofted (traditional lofted) irons so his pw is actually around 51 degrees which is typically a gap wedge. I have no idea what kind of golf monster you are but I have a club head speed of 121mph driver and 110mph 7iron on trackman, play to a 0.6 hdcp and still don't believe I could get that kind of distance even with a flyer lie.

[imthesonofjorel]

@k2skier1212 you know how i know your gay?

[k2skier1212]

@imthesonofjorel You know how I know your gay? Because you post videos titled "sweetass drift" in your shit box of a car and favorite the video "Johann Pachelbel Canon Piano (George Winston)" along with "Black Eyed Peas - The Time (Dirty Bit)"

[imthesonofjorel]

@k2skier1212 lol... you actually made me laugh!! does seem pretty gay!! but i am not the only person liking and favoriting videos for this user.... but i did make the comment to your comment lol your gay and your really a 7 handicaper 8 ) its ok though... still not that bad!! im tire sf afsd a fasdfasdafs aasdafsaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaa

[rippendorber]

Do u c the look on his face after he hits the shot, when that look is back he will be back

[supremacyh1]

Tiger will be back soon. I hope he wins the Masters! Or at least one of the majors.

[batlantic]

In case you doubt, I was Fehertys spotter(yardage and club guy) at the time and it was 186 yds to the hole; the front(where the ball lands was about 160 ish) and Tiger went after that ball SOO frickin hard. It came out with hardly any spin at all as you can tell by how far it rolled from where it hit the green. 186 pitching wedge; no wind, club shut down a hair at impact, just TIGER

[MedicAlv1]

190 yards out of thick, wet, rough with a pitching wedge? You know my first thought was..."uhm, ok it's possible he could've closed the club face and turned it into a 8-9 iron" Then i took a good look at the swing and said, "There's simply no way he could've closed the club face and gotten that kind of trajectory!". So i am all day contemplating the different factors to make this shot seem normal, but i gave up and realized that he's just friggin TIGER WOODS!

[saqib09]

I could take that shot. :)

[pryan37bb]

I love his pirate-style facial hair.

[18imnot]

such an awesome story teller

[f0cusen]

This is an amazing shot but clearly a flyer

[emmenjays]

he definitely doesnt say fuck me did you see that....he said something like fucking cuntbag

[Kleiner2299]

I think Ernie said "No Fucking Way"!! Just like myself!!

[wunderbar1001]

Re nalderto

Tiger probably hit a flyer (It is called a flyer which implies the extra length you get when grass gets between the blade and the ball on impact).

[nalderto]

@wunderbar1001 ya i know what a flyer is but thanks. if a ball is buried like that you rarely hit one. A flyer lie is usually in short rough.

[Lostkiwi123]

tiger fucking did a lot of things

[trolloone]

ernie actually said" how the fuck did he do that?"

[nalderto]

i don't see how that shot is possible. tiger hits a wedge 150-160 at most. how could he hit fly it 190 out of the rough. Even though he is tiger woods I don't believe it.

[11281123]

rough traps the face. so it closes. less loft and therefore a little more distance. but even having said that, that is just simply impossible.

only tiger can do smth like that.

[11281123]

maybe it wasnt inentional. i think he just wanted to hit the fairway. i mean with a wedge? seriously?

[magikman38]

@11281123 If he just wanted to get it in the fairway there would be know use giving it such a hack. Tiger would rather lay back and give himself a full wedge in to the green. He was certainly giving it a go

[nalderto]

@11281123 maybe, but if his clubface closed he would pull the ball, which he clearly didn't do on that shot. Unless he played a pull on purpose by aiming right, tiger can be tricky like that sometimes...

[emmenjays]

@nalderto you just saw a video of him doing it. what do you need it to be in 3D i mean jesus christ

[Rubown]

no one else could do that, just Tiger.

[GorillaJesus69]

"fuck me!"

[1tontomato]

Amazing, unbelievable.

[thedonster137]

the description is dumb... its pretty obvious that ernie els says "No fuckin' way".... junkprunk is a dumbass, besides a 1 second bleep isn't long enough to cut out "Fuck me! Did you see that?"

[ronnymufc]

yeah true

[0titleist0]

i think ernie said  "a fuc**ng wedge!?"

haha

[GolfingMan2009]

Read description it says what he said.

[GolfCrAzY1533]

not a frickin pitching wedge.. at least an 8 iron

[chuckn11]

what did ernie say? lol

[mnshurricane]

Watch the video closely....the ball lands at the front of the green which is likely 165-170 carry and then it releases to the hole.....It was definitely in nasty rough since the ball had absolutely zero spin on it but with that kind of clubhead speed, the shot is absolutely doable.....for TW only....

[wogolfer]

well, to be honest, I doubt that david feherty would lie about this, so everything he says is most likely true. but I can tell you that was not 6-inch rough, and was not buried, but he had a flyer lie, which tiger recognized, hence the less club

and my username is "wogolfer" so id have to say yes, i do play golf. good call there.

[mrdannnny]

if he had a flyer lie...y wud he need 2 hit it with his rite leg coming up of the ground then ?

[wogolfer]

I guess that's just because he swung really hard. or maybe he just figured his left leg wasn't injured enough already.

[davidacolley]

yeah, that was no flyer, that was brute strength and a bit of magic only Tiger is capable of

[junkprunk]

so were is the 55 mph tailwind? look at the flag. barely any wind at all. youre saying that this is fake?

[bdub9843]

id have to say you have never played golf?

[ryanortiz1]

tiger hits his PW 100-200 no wind

[paulski5]

Pitching wedge my ass. I would like to see him hit it 190 with a clean lie. I have to think we are missing part of the story here.

[Clarks2523]

totally agree best golfer ever BAR NONE and no one will ever come close

[tsorby87]

The best golfer ever to live. There will never be another Eldrick tiger woods.NEVER!!

[junkprunk]

It was the 2000 NEC Invitational (today Bridgestone Invitational). Day 3, 18th hole. Tiger shot a 67.

[KnavinBoy]

ernie: "no fucking way"

[skateboardsking3000]

wtf

[Sprinklesofjoy]

no I thought earnie els said 'F*** me' :D ridiculous shot

[chilibeanking]

what did ernie els actually say?

[wisgolfer101]

at 1:57 he is completely off the ground!!

[GYPSYROMA777]

lol wow

[drl20895]

look how straight his left leg and knee. this is why it is fucked up

[JAYROX1969]

Quality!

[LKskateNC]

so he had a sand wedge and hit 190 yards?

[junkprunk]

pitching wedge

[LKskateNC]

wooow

[wisgolfer101]

skillz

[Shaftsus]

@LKskateNC don't worry they file down their clubs so a 5 is more like a 3 iron etc, they still get a lot more distance than your average golfer but not as much as you think...

[kingofthenoobs]

shots like that is why his knee hurts. crazy torque

[Samoanfox5000]

wen i saw the ball in the air i just said to myself oh no he did it again. great story.

[urdufoo]

What did Els say?

[co96]

did you expect anything else .. when tiger stepped up to that ball it was already almost in the hole :P

[mrtonyn]

i hit the ball 160 yards today...

and im 15. =]

(luckiest shot ill ever get)

lmao

[jebjonson]

i hit it 260 today and i'm 15

[allard112]

stop bragging and try to hit it 270

[woodybarn66]

whack

[pgajpgolf]

holy shit

[Tmanprov]

190 yards with a PW...Fuck me.

says it all

Fehrety is a genius:)

[rgmmiller93]

how do you hit a pw 190 yards out of thick rough?!!!!

[gsclelo]

1. flyer lie

2.helping wind

3.ball carried about 160yrds

the distance is'nt amazing its the accuracy that is

[junkprunk]

wind isnt helping much - look at the flag. the ball carried at least 175. and as far as i know, a flyer lie is when the ball sits up in the grass like its on a tee, not burried really deep like in this case!? if anybody else would just try to hit the ball that hard out of that lie (almost nobody could do even that because they dont have tigers clubhead speed, but just pretending) they would probably break their wrists. tiger is the only one who can do it because he is so strong and flexible

[gsclelo]

i don't want to get into an arguement but anyboby who trains and competes in long drive,myself included, have the clubhead speed and the strenght to pull that shot of, but i would probably miss the green, people need to realise that even though he is the best golfer he is not the longest, there are hundreds of people faster and stronger, he has no reason to try and be the longest because he is trying to shoot insanely low scores.

[junkprunk]

me neither, its just a friendly discussion!? :) you guys who compete in longdriving are obviously ALOT longer than anybody on the pga tour. no question. still, tiger always says that he normally swings at 75-80% of his max power. me myself do not really belive that... im guessing hes swinging his driver at 85-90, and sometimes a little more when he rips it. but at this shot he lets it all go! and when he does, i dont think any other tour player could match it. longdrivers though could, obviously

[gsclelo]

i guess i am just used to being attacked for saying that there are regular guys that can smoke pga pro's in distance :), i am glad you know more than most, its a great vid,peace

[paulski5]

No one else can do it? And...break wrists? Not even close.

[matrix42589]

u wanna try that shot for me with a wedge to see how easy it is???

[gsclelo]

i will try to post something tomorow

[cgasucks]

190 yards with a PW...Fuck me..

[AnX05]

he said "holy shit"

gary mccord just told me this story 3 days ago at a dinner in firestone

[xXTHEMUSICXx]

ok, you cant say that you've done this before unless you play in 3-5inch rough everyday

[ccrossey]

wat did ernie say?

[liaothecow]

i think he said "fuck me"

[itzSommyJr]

This is such an easy shot; I've done this before on my local par three course.

[shivom90]

hahah..props to ure sarcasm.. but seriously 190yd pw.. wtf

[brh5934]

oh so i guess your tee boxes are thick patches of rough and your ball must be burried before you tee off, wow dude, thats a tough track

[2puttking]

easy!

[supremacyh1]

lol its no problem.

[supremacyh1]

haha this is on one of his dvd's. Just epic. amazing shot

[junkprunk]
