391 yard drive on hole 1 at Fieldstone Golf Club

[ayJaoMa]

that's probably in the trees with that hook grip

[srv29]

@ayJaoMa Hook grip? You mean strong grip? You think he would continue to grip the club like that if he hooked it every time you moron?

[ayJaoMa]

@srv29 @srv29 strong grip, hook grip, whatever. My point was when you grip the club like that your miss hits will tend to be hooks moron. Are you this guys butt buddy or something?

[TheGolfdu]

@Josephporta We don't get 4.0 easily... and we're not retarded either, if that what you expect American schools to be... The average is probably like 2.7-3.0 or some shit.

[dfowler7923]

Ok Jospeh kid, i dont no hoo u r butt it makes no fuckin differenc how u spell on a fucking YouTube comment im not bragging butt i am trying 2 make a point hear I am purpusly spelling words rong and I am a 3.9 student and i tak difficult classes dont get ur panties in a bunch just because we dont giv a shit and spell words how we want 2 spell them. So fuck off and trol on anuther video

[Jospehporta]

@dfowler7923 Buddy being a 4.0 student in an American HS is like getting a C in most developed countries. The bar is set so low in America a 4.0 means nothing. Just look at you, you supposedly have a 3.9 yet can't spell simple words or use simple grammar. It shouldn't be hard as it seems to be for you.

i doubt you have a 3.9 in even in an American school, you seem far too stupid.

[aieljose]

Long drive competitions are stupid. If he spent as much time practicing on the rest of his game that he does on his driving he might actually be on the pga tour by now.

[jonny818boy]

he's like a contortionist in his takeaway.. thats incredible flexibility

[FullTimeHypocrite]

DAMN know i know why i always have a high launch and huge spin on the ball when i try to immotate him : its in the setup of his left hand, his wrist is bent to max already thats why he is dead shut at impact

[coviron21]

he should be on tour he would tear it up

[TheMugrootbeer]

391 off the Toe!!! XD

[FullTimeHypocrite]

Perfection at the tee, period.

[RK831]

Big tee shot, yes, but what did he shoot for the day?

[MRdontneednousername]

PAUSE just before impact at 10 seconds the shaft is in a u!

[fade7foul]

I can imagine the starter rolling his eyes when Jamie says ' I should wait for the green to clear'

[rschotman]

Lefties playing right rule. Imagine if righties play left!

[MikePedersenGolfTips]

I think it would be funny if Jamie showed up to play a normal round of golf, and on the first hole he drives the green on a 400 yard hole. Can you imagine the look on the rest of the foursomes faces. Priceless.

[chakenfangersaregood]

@MikePedersenGolfTips i want to play on tour in the near future, but if this guy shows up in q school im packing my bags and going home.

[cyberslick18]

@MikePedersenGolfTips I think it would be even funnier when they still end up more under par because his short and putting game are non existant :)

[MikePedersenGolfTips]

@cyberslick18 I'll bet you're right! Drive for show and put for dough ;)

[cyberslick18]

@MikePedersenGolfTips Actually I have to recant my original statement, I thought I was watching another long drive video, not Sadlowski. Jamie is actually a pretty scratch player, and has a chance of competing on the PGA if he gets his consistency up.

[MikePedersenGolfTips]

@cyberslick18 Well that's impressive!

[DMenase24]

@MikePedersenGolfTips Happy Gilmore's already done that

[DeagleDude123]

@MikePedersenGolfTips Billy Madison bro...



[djmrnelson]

@stevepising I hope you are a female because what you just typed is probably on of the gayest shit ever written on youtube. Homo.

[stevepising]

This guy is pretty handy in the long drive sure, but I don't think he's that hot. I prefer Zuback, Jason is rugged and handsome like a real man should be x

[highvelocity1000]

I often wonder why people bag on other peoples talents. Especially when the talent is exceptional. 99.99% of the golfers out there can not swing the club fast enough to propel the ball even close to what Jamie does. And that includes all the guys on the PGA tour. Instead of taking shots at his form and set up you ought to be taking notes because the tour pros do. FYI, left elbow previous to ball impact (chicken wing) loads the shaft like a spring for kick. a normal golf swing wont cut it

[retreattodefeat]

@highvelocity1000 You don't think tour players can come close to Jamie's speed?? You're wrong. Many of them can, but they would be ludacris to do it under tournament pressure with tight fairways...

[sandersuperfollador]

@retreattodefeat no they cant . no player on tour has the flexibility and the wrist strenght this young man can generate . Bubba watson , jb holmes swing they hardest and their swing speed is 120 . jamie sadlowski is about 147 - 150 NO WAY MAN

[tim191219]

@sandersuperfollador In 2007 bubba watson posted a clubhead speed of 136 mph. I think with a LD driver, and not under the pressure of a tournament he could hit it as far as most ld competitiors

[sandersuperfollador]

@tim191219 i believe you man , but LD guys have avg of 137 - 140 , bubba watson avg is 121 - 122 thats all . To hit the ball very far your avg must be very high

[highvelocity1000]

@retreattodefeat Uh,...No I'm not wrong. Swinging a golf club 125mph on a trackman is fast and that is what the fastest guys on tour are swinging. That is probably about 70% of their max effort with a driver. Another 10mph takes serious effort, most of the guys on tour would hurt themselves attempting. The BEST guys in long drive average 138 and some of these guys are 6' 8 300lbs. Jamie is a special dude. $1,000 that says there isn't a PGA guy that can post 145 chs and 215ball speed.

[brainysnaeha]

@highvelocity1000

That 6'8'' guy you're mentioned must be mike dobbyn a 2007 champ.

[TheEzpeaz]

@highvelocity1000 my buddy can get his swing speed up to 160. not joking. He went to REMAX this year. You be seeing him, Aaron Mansfield, 20, 6'2". bomber.

[chakenfangersaregood]

@highvelocity1000 have you heard of mike Austin, the guy that posted a 515 yard drive on tour, he played with sam snead and Ben hogan. Not to mention that he hit this drive with a wooden driver.

[highvelocity1000]

@chakenfangersaregood Yes heard of Mike Austin. The shot is a legend. I sincerely doubt he was generating the CHS that the current LD pros do. Since there was only one legendary shot, I would suspect good tail wind, hard surface, and short grass in the fairway. Hit 515 at the Mesquite Regional Complex in the swirling wind, with 1.5 inch grass landing and it would be something to brag about.

[chakenfangersaregood]

@highvelocity1000 you just never know they didnt have all that technology back then. Its kind funny though im kind of similar to sadlowski, im only 5"9 130 pounds but my swing speed has gotten to 120, although my average is 115. I dont know how but maybe i can reach his swing speed if i start to bulk up more.

[cyberslick18]

@chakenfangersaregood If you watch a lot of these long drive videos, several of them specifically advise against bulking up for faster speeds, that it usually ends up being counter productive. Just some food for thought.

[readygo242]

@highvelocity1000 $1000 says NO ONE GIVES A SHIT! Long driving is entertaining and all, but it is no substitute for the PGA. Most people would rather watch all around great golfer play than a long drive contest...

[highvelocity1000]

@readygo242 $1000 says you are one of those guys that talks shit about "short game" and "putt for dough" crap that tries to make themselves feel superior by tearing someone else's talents down. Jealousy sucks doesn't it? Keep hitting your 3 wood 195yds and watching the PGA at home on the TV. Sell your driver, you don't know what it is for except for the range.

[readygo242]

@highvelocity1000 Actually, I'm 20 years old and extremely athletic. I never bashed the guy, but somehow you took it that way from what i wrote, so maybe you should read it that again. Actually I'm an extremely good golfer all around. I'm an incredible putter and am excellent around the greens with my wedges. That's where my strong suites are. No, I can't crush the ball 400 yards, but I average 280-300 every time and hit it straight and am a single digit handicap. Funny thing is, I never play

[highvelocity1000]

@readygo242 Yes, I did read it that way, sorry. It always seems that the LD guys have respect for the PGA guys but there always seems to be a comment that the average golfer who loves golf and the PGA has against the LD guys doing a sport that uses a driver and a golf ball and has it's own rules. It is unfortunate that a large amount of golfers think the top PGA guys can do what the top LD guys can. Never saw a PGA guy at an LDA event. Yes you are right, there is no substitute for long drive.

[LMaster1]

@readygo242 Not really trying to bash or anything, single digit is solid golf after all. But "incredible" putter and "excellent" with the wedges. Not to mention good, straight distance. You just described a +3, +4 type guy at least, not a low SD. If your short game is that solid, and your fairly long and in play there is no way your aren't going to be under par on an extremely regular basis.

[Jospehporta]

@readygo242 lol if you say so.

[jaredanson123]

@highvelocity1000 your such a pontificator, they clock all the time average tour guys at 150 160. you're such a jackass to think you are right.

[highvelocity1000]

@jaredanson123 Look moron, there isn't a guy on tour that can swing over 125mph on a trackman monitor. Check your facts before you look stupid again. 150 to 160mph ball speeds maybe, but CHS? Not going to happen ever, on the Tour. As to your comment on me being right? I am, 100%. I am also 100% about you being a stupid ass, and you can't fix being a stupid ass can you?

[jaredanson123]

@highvelocity1000 eat you dirty taint, if u look at my comment i never said swingspeed. idiot

[Jospehporta]

@highvelocity1000 Well actually Tiger has been clocked at 140 mph. But a pro is only swinging at 80%, they are looking for control, hence why the best pro golfers shit on long drivers when actually playing golf.

[highvelocity1000]

@Jospehporta 140mph in his Escalade after getting caught by his wife hahahahaaha! He might get 130 mph on a Trackman or maybe 140 with an Swing Speed Radar Monitor with an 50" LD club but with his 46" I seriously doubt it. If you have ever seen a professional long driver up close and personal and really seen how much faster they are you would know, but you don't. When was the last time a PGA pro won a long drive competition? NEVER. Who is shitting on who now?

[Jospehporta]

@highvelocity1000 Actually Butch Harmon himself said Tiger can swing at 140 mph. When he turned pro in 1996 he hit his drives with inferior equipment and balls easily over 300 yards, If he had the same swing now.......you know the rest. Now he swings at around 80% for accuracy.

There's a reason why long drivers aren't dominating the PGA, they are incredibly inconsistent.

BTW he uses a 43.5 inch Driver and can reach 140 mph and that was with an X200 steel shaft back in the day :)

[Jospehporta]

@highvelocity1000 Real pro's gear their swing for consistency, not to belt a ball. I've seen Sergio Garcia in person hit balls over 360 yards on a driving range at a pro tournament. Lonig driving isn't playing golf, it's hitting a ball as hard as you can, their accuracy is incredibly bad. A pro has no need to hit a ball that hard and land in the rough 90% of the time.

BTW when was the last time a long driver won a PGA tournament? NEVER.

[highvelocity1000]

@Jospehporta I was just watching the Bridgestone and half these guys can't break 300 with 1/2" fair way grass and the other half don't end up in the fairway at all. If Sergio is hitting 360, its a 20mph tail wind and LDers are going to break 400 easy. If you think hitting a 50 yard wide grid swinging 145+ and putting 215+mph on the ball doesn't take accuracy, Check the LDA site and show up for a local and see if you can even make it to regionals dude and then to Mesquite. Put up or shut up.

[Jospehporta]

@highvelocity1000 lol dude ok, you believe whatever you want. What you don't understand is in tournament play they swing at 80%, Long drivers swing at 110%, hence why they'd never win a professional tournament. They have no accuracy or distance control. Simple enough?

[highvelocity1000]

@Jospehporta I hit on most of the indoor simulator golf gear (HD golf, About Golf, etc) and outdoor ( SSR, Zelocity, Trackman, etc) and teach and test other beginner golfers and now pros on them. I like Tiger and the game of golf. I compete in LD, so I KNOW where the numbers are pertaining to the PHYSICS involved in making a ball go. CHS, BS, Launch, Spin, and Landing angle all contribute to total distance. PGA pros swing 110 to 125 CHS, Openclass Pro LDers 135-145 trackman chs.

[Con7ent]

@Jospehporta Wow it's amazing how ignorant you and the guys parroting you are on this topic. Let me make it simple for you, when the FAST guys on tour go 100% they are hitting 125 CHS. That's Dustin/Bubba etc. Sergio Garcia hitting 360 drives? Child please. I've probably been to twice the golf tournaments you have and can guaranTEE you this is not the case unless he's got a 20 MPH wind at his back. Fact is they cant reach 140 CHS. As in they can't physically generate it with their swing, period.

[Con7ent]

@Jospehporta Also, of course if you're playing a round of PGA golf trying to score you're swinging around 80% DEPENDING on the hole. If the fairway's wide open, a pro is confident enough to swing 90-95% cause they're so accurate. Speaking of accuracy, for his length Jamie's is verygood. Just an added note, I've seen the guy reach 150-152, I think hes posted 155 CHS. Good luck reaching that tour pros.It's easier just to see it for yourself. Search Jamie Sadlowski Bubba Watson 1/4 and watch those.

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta dude your wrong. just give it up. look at this fucking swing. no one on tour can go that hard at a ball.

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 If a tour player wanted to concentrate on long driving then I have no doubt they could swing at those speeds. The point is why would they want to, it's a disadvantage for them. You don't see Jamie on the PGA tour because he'd get ripped apart. Not to mention he hits a wide open fairway less than 50% of the time.

BTW. It's you're not your - learn how to use simple English words. Talk about dumbing down :)

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta ok fag its a youtube comments just relax with the spellcheck. and let get real here. tour players are better at golf. long drivers are better at long drive. even the longest on tour dont have anything on this kid. just watch his swing. its amazing he can hit 50% of fairways. seems like an acomplishment if you ask me. havent you seen the commercial where he hits a 250 7 iron. thats 70-80 past where most tour pros hit it. even the longest arent much over 200. come on. its not close

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 I find it funny how illiterate fools call people fags because they can spell properly. The fact is you need to use spell check in the first place, now that is funny.

I said he can hit less than 50% of fairways. hell on the long driving championships he gets 1 in 3 balls on the grass and it's 50 yards wide.

Sure he can hit a 7 iron 250 yards and 50 yards right or left of the hole, so what? As I said he isn't good enough to play with the big boys. Long driving isn't even golf.

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta you can spell joseph but you are pretty stupid. we are not talking about him making it on tour or playing with the 'big boys'. were talking about how you thought tour pros could do long drive. maybe you should reread what I wrote. i clearly say that long drive and golf are different and you respond, long drive isn't golf? bravo. another brilliant well thought out comment. make sure your next ridiculous comment has no spelling errors! or dont reply. save yourself the embarrassment

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 Jospeh is exactly how I wanted my name spelt. Learn how to spell you idiot, it's 'we're', also dumbass a sentence is always started with a capital letter. My god you're fucking stupid. It must be nice to be as ignorant and as stupid as you, no one will ever take you seriously :)

I suggest you reread what I wrote. But good to see that you agree with me. It's always nice to show morons like you the light. Have nice day and good luck graduating kindergarten.

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta i reread it. youre still stupid. maybe you should reread the whole comment before sending smiley faces (fag). you know you lost the argument so you'll correct some more grammer. i should hire you. you can read all my emails and make sure they are spelt correct. you repeatwhat i say and im agreeing with you! LOL! and im the moron! if you like i can paste the conversation and show you why your wrong :) you can spell but are stupid. i just push f7

kindergarten is going great btw!

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 How funny you calling me stupid, when you can't even spell basic words or use basic grammar. Nice one :)

I assume you're in a remedial kindergarten class? Now the question is how long is it going to take you to look up what "remedial" means. Oh to be a fly on your wall. Hilarious.

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta ugh fine. i was tested gifted with an iq of a little over 130. im not stupid. now if you would shut the fuck up about how brilliant you think you are it would be nice.

your insult is that im in a remedial kindergarten class after i make a joke about being in one? rich. i can see through your comments you must be a clever guy.

anyways if there's anything a little more engaging that you would like to discuss that isnt about letters making words im all ears :)

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 LMAO so now you are gifted, I couldn't stop laughing at that one. Yet you still can't spell simple words or use extremely basic grammar. More like you were tested and got a 30 which means you're gifted for a goldfish :)

You my friend are incredibly stupid.

What's funny is you don't even know what IQ stands for - now hurry up and google it dumbass :)

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta again with the nasty insults. come on dont be such a pussy. an iq of 30? really, thats quality stuff right there. this is getting a little boring from you. i feel like you just keep talking about my spelling. can you use that overdeveloped brain you claim to have and find anything else? please do. i cant keep making you look like a retard over the internet. i feel bad about it

and kids with autism spell really well. would you call them smart? come on buddy. engage me here

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 LOL I see you dropped the bullshit about you being gifted pretty quickly no surprise there. Please I wait with baited breath with your next story :) Hey dumbs autism has no relationship to IQ and there are plenty of autistics people who can't spell.

So you're saying your retarded now....well at least that seems closer to the truth. Gifted......I'm still LMAO at that one.

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta i am in grade 10 now. i took the test in grade 5 and went to a gifted school from grades 4-8. i was taken into a room during social studies where i was quizzed on language and math. i scored a 99 on the language and a 76 on math. they asked me to look at puzzles for 10 seconds then recreate them. analyse writing. shit like that. anything else youd like to know? school name? you dont understand my autism point. big swing and a miss there bud. and mr. grammer, autistics people? :D

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 LMAO you're in grade 10 and took the test in grade 5. SO basically you took a junk IQ test and you only attended "gifted classes" from years 4-8. LOL. I finished HS when I was 16 and had an Industrial Engineering degree at 20. You aren't gifted in the slightest.

You aren't even close to being gifted, sorry you might be a little above average, but that isn't saying much. But I find your bullshit funny :)

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta you do realize gifted is just a label? a term used to describe something right? its a term applied to me. like being white or something. how can you disagree, you dont know me... i dont understand this. what youre saying about an IQ test makes no sense to me also. how can a standardized test be junk? also graduating at 16 doesnt show having a high IQ at all. it means you got your work dont faster than others, no? impressive but irellevent. tell me if you disagree with that assertion

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 Actually graduating at 16 means I have a very high IQ, considering I did 2 500 level university math courses and a 400 level course in Physics. BTW I didn't even got to HS in America, public HS education here is junk and a complete joke. In fact I could have graduated HS in America at 14 or 15 it's that easy compared to other Western countries :)

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta man you just wrong. it has nothing to do with IQ. if that were true then the highest IQs would get the highest marks no? that means your good at school. that. is. it. it doesnt mean your smart, a hard worker yeah but not with a high IQ. the only thing that shows IQ is an IQ test. do you disagree?

im not even from the US. and i dont do standard highschool. whered you go to uni?

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 Actually people with the highest IQ's do get the highest marks. Hence why you have prodigies finishing university at 14-15 years of age. You can work your ass of at school and still never get a 4.0 if you don't have the brains.

Standardized IQ tests are a joke. A proper IQ needs to be administered by a psychologist. Also different IQ tests can have widely different scores. 130 in one test may only be 110 in another.

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta ahahah dude your so stupid! i cant believe i though you were smart. that was the worst thought out argument ive heard in a while. you really think that the highest IQ's get the highest marks? really?? there are so many stupid things said in that i dont even know where to start. FUCK. your first 3 points are wrong. just factually wrong. and everything you said about IQ's is wrong. i just dont know what to say. that was so ridiculous to read. tell you what ill show you why there wrong

[fdfdfdfdsss]

@Jospehporta "Actually people with the highest IQ's do get the highest marks." Probably true in a lot of cases, but not always. Most people would consider Einstein kind of smart, yet he struggled with certain aspects of school. A person can have an IQ through the roof, but if they lack interest or motivation they won't necessarily succeed. Not to mention school tends to test only a few types of intelligence. The same goes for IQ tests. They won't reveal brilliance in other areas.

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 FYI I went to Stanford on a full ride and during my degree took a year off and went to China. In that year I became reasonably fluent in Mandarin Chinese and Shanghainese. So you could say I am 'gifted' with languages as well.

I find it funny how morons such as yourself have no other arguments than to call people fags. How intelligent you must be :)

[StogeyNightClub]

@Jospehporta you are not only jealous but also a liar....you're only cheating yourself.

[nikepumps123]

1st point. many gifted students struggle in school. in fact my grade 8 gifted class had a lower average than the regular class. school is about effort and application. i may learn faster but if i dont study i wont succeed. 2nd point. go to summer school. do nothing but school. does that raise your IQ because you graduated fast? no. 3rd. You can have the brains and not get a 4.0! figure it out! 4th. IQ test are always standardized or the numbers wouldnt mean anything (duh).

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 Sorry bud and you;re a case in hand. American schools have been so incredibly dumbed down that getting a 4.0 shouldn't be hard for 90% of students.

Lets face it you aren't nearly as smart as you think you are. Your arguments prove that. Doing more school work does not raise your IQ, LOL. You have what yoga re born with. You weren't born with much :)

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta honest question, can you read? ive been saying this whole time school isnt about being smart, you said it is. i never said anything about american school system. im not american and dont go to american schools!i never said anything about a gpa. what are you talking about?? lets face it, you really need to read my comments before responding. im embarassed for you right now. please show me something that would lead me to believe you can keep up with me here.

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 Ahh right so you're not American now. What's is blatantly obvious is you're a troll which is why you have blocked your channel.

I guess you can't read your own comments. You should be embarrassed for yourself. You come across as a complete idiot, desperately trying to sound "smart". Sad indeed.

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta please show me where i said i am american. dont just make stuff up, its boring. what the fuck is a troll? also what is a blocked channel?

honestly show me where i said im american. you cant put together a simple argument and im the idiot. you just keep jumping back and forth between random stuff that has nothing to do with anything. say something that makes sense. this is getting so dull so fast

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 blah

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta yup

[fdfdfdfdsss]

@Jospehporta "You have what you're born with." That's also incorrect.

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta 5th point. a real IQ test (not some online stuff) varies only slightly (<5 points).

i dont think you understand what an IQ is. you should read up on it or something.

and come on buddy. did you cure cancer while you were at it? reasonably fluent, LOL!

you should start calling people fags because everything you said was wrong. Every single thing. and i just showed you how.

anyways i would like a decent argument back please. i am getting really bored with you

[Jospehporta]

@nikepumps123 OK then not reasonably fluent very fluent. Fluent enough that I can understand 90% of what I heard during meetings, which used far more technical language than walking around the street. Fluent enough that I can read a Chinese newspaper.

I don't call people fags, it's a sign of someone with a low intelligence and weak mind.

BTW. Real IQ tests can vary widely, simple facts.

LMAO, decent argument? You haven't provided any, there's nothing to argue with :)

[nikepumps123]

@Jospehporta Read carefully please. You. Are. Wrong. Real IQ tests vary within 3 points. 3 points. BTW i never disagreed with you about speaking. I just thouhgt it was funny how you worded it. Also calling someone a fag is not a sign of low intellegence. Its a word people use. If Hawkins said it would he become less smart? (Answer: Noooo) I showed you that every point you made was wrong out of the last 7. What other argument can i make here? I think this might be a little above your head buddy

[LMaster1]

@Jospehporta You keep talking about how he isn't good enough to play with the pros. I get the feeling that has something to do with fact he isn't trying to be good at golf; he is trying to be good at LD

You saying "he can hit 250 yards 7 iron, but its 50 yards left or right, so what?" is like me saying Usain Bolt can run 200m in 19.19 seconds but he can't keep that up and would run 40 min 10K, so what?

They are fundamentally different events with different skill sets. You can't compare them.

[Jospehporta]

@LMaster1 Good then you agree with me. Long driving isn't golf. Case closed.

[highvelocity1000]

@jaredanson123 Here ya go stupid ass, now you are informed on what the some of the best Tour guys swing. Turn up the sound so you can here the announcer say how fast he is swinging the club. Check this video so you are no longer ignorant.

Dustin Johnson: Long Driver

[jaredanson123]

@highvelocity1000 eat your dirty taint

[sportsman214]

@highvelocity1000 Yeah I agree. I have a clubhead speed of about 120 too, and trying to break that 120 mark is nearly impossible. you have to change your swing completely to create such leverage. Only Bubba may be the one that could be as close.

[illeagl]

@highvelocity1000 Gary Woodland

[MFBueno63]

@retreattodefeat

not a single guy on tour can come close to matching jamie.......if u watched the Tournament of Champions at the beginning of this yea they had a long drive conest between Jamie, and the 3 longest hitters on tour(Garrigus, Bubba, and Dustin) and Jamie smoked it 40 yards by all of them......

[pri27golfer]

@MFBueno63 Not true, Garrigus in the final round drove it 394, and during the contest sadlowski had it 406, so only a 12 yard difference.

[stevepising]

chicken winging it post impact. great lag and squat power move but not much control

@stevepising dont be jealous bro. just because the man hits it farther than you doesnt mean you have to make yourself feel better and cut on his swing, there are a lot of ways to hit a golfball, and he found one that works pretty damn well

[stevepising]

@tim191219 I know, i'm being a bit unfair - I take your point. Jamie just doesn't do it for me, I prefer my men a little chunkier. No downer on Jamie, he's just not my type

[stevepising]

grip too strong. always a big hook in there - no luck on tour with that method

[GunCoppaz]

@stevepising he does long drive contests u tool

[stevepising]

@GunCoppaz no shit cocksucker - that's why he looks like he's strangling a cat and posting shit vids on you tube

fuck yo mama

[GunCoppaz]

@stevepising then why would u say he has no luk on tour?

[sandersuperfollador]

@stevepising you are a looser , thats why you bring jamie down . You're jealous of him because you hit it 200 , idiot get a life

[petercaveney17]

This Guys set up position is awful :|

[sandersuperfollador]

@Vinny19rocks i agree with you , but todays golf courses are very long , and they will continue to be long . and if you want to be a consistent player you must hit the ball far , the pga tour avg is about 285,5 yards , and that distance is great

[Vinny19rocks]

for everybody that think that only driving is importat, anybody heard the story of a man who was 8 feet tall and hit the ball 500 yards one foot to the hole btu then hit his next shot just as far? it not all about power

[MrHallen123]

ok He's good at playing golf then

[Gamble1011]

good way to start the round

[MrHallen123]

you do realise hes only good AT DRIVING THE BALL not anything else

[ccool300]

@MrHallen123 actually read an article about the guy moron, he's a scratch golfer and is gonna try the tour out once his swing starts to slow down to where he can't win long drive competitions. so zip it up lips cuz u don't know anything about shit.

[thefightbeginswithu]

@MrHallen123 the guy is a 2 index

[paulski5]

@MrHallen123 It is pretty plain to see that his golf swing is no joke.  Not good at anything else? Give me a break.

[Cloondolkoyne]

Man, this guy's got a super short follow through for someone who hits it 391 yards...he's good!

[thefightbeginswithu]

wow

[xtrememachead]

For people that want to talk about his shaft...

He uses the House of Forged Jamie Sadlowski issue shaft. Most of his drivers are in the xxx to xxxx range. They are tipped and he uses heads from 5-7 degrees. HE also won two REMAX world long drive championships. And he is the current reigning champion.

[thefightbeginswithu]

@xtrememachead insane a 5 degree driver , 4x shafts ,

[donniedeuce]

that is a sick nasty example of mechanics and how they translate into clubhead speed. that was a bomb he hit there. and yea, that shaft has gotta be at least xxstiff with a high kick, prolly like 8 degrees or less of loft. i would imagine his clubhead speed is somewhere in the 135mph range which is huge. keep hittin them long balls man

[nrk2525]

He was 145-147 at worlds on club head speed.

[twanbiz]

people on here dont know what they are talking about, if he used a stiff flex driver it would probably break on the transition into the downswing. hes using a shaft thats bascially a telephone pole.

[robpizzle]

haha so truee. xxx id honestly say. such a rip. the pretty long guys on tour can break stiff shafts. this guys rediculous

[guitskate215]

ibelieve it was that distance....i think its true....all faireay is downhgill if usee closely...and his swing is like trmendous power!

[MoHobbes14]

holy shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh pause it right at impact. look at that shaft. unreal. he bends a xxx-stiff shaft like its a rope

[atzepeng2323]

thats no xxx-shaft. he probably hit his buddy's s-flex driver. that shaft is close to freaking breaking.

look to the right there is a video where you can see him in slowmo and you will see that the shaft doesn't bend anywhere near as much.

its called:

"Jamie Sadlowski on the....." - 1:58 minutes long

[smithersandburns]

You don't know what you're talking about. It's a xxx flex. That kind of bend is just what happens when a long club moves that fast.

He couldn't hit it 390 with an s flex and would never waste his time swinging one.

[WestBromSte]

the shaft is around 50 inches i would think, being around 5 inches longer than normal that increases the flex of it, a XXX stiff which was 45 inches would be very difficult to bend

[twinprime]

@MoHobbes14 shaft isn't bent like that in really, it's the camera that distort the images.

[rschotman]

@twinprime first time someone confirms that. Many slowmo's show that effect. It's because the image capture on a chip is line-by-line top-own. This means that at impact the clubface is capture a fraction later than the middle of the shaft. Because of the high swing speeds this leads to the distorted picture. You see that a lot on tour-pro slomo's and looks really weird if you freeze the frame.

[golfswing101]

Hard to see if his left wrist is straight through impact (it certainly is not at setup). I heard the straight wrist was important for a long drive.
