Could this kind of swing ever actually work consistently enough to be used?

Driver: 10.5* callaway Razr Hawk Tour - 350 yards(usually into the wind, it can be windy here. at least 400 with a little wind behind me)

Hybrids: 2 and 3 callaway Hybrid razr tour (312 and 287 respectively)

Irons: 3i-10i callaway forged standard length(278, 263, 250, 235, 221, 213, 201, 190)

Wedges: callaway jaws cc 52* 12 approach, 56* 16 sand, 60* 13 lob (0-185)

Odyssey Black tour #9 putter(5 ft, i'm always at least within 5 feet on my approach shot)

I wonder who on this forum is a PGA tour pro, disguised as a normal player..

Taking the above advice may lead to destruction of your golf game. Laughing at it may reduce stress.

Only with plenty of pot (which it appears those guys had).

It would work if you don't mind hitting big cuts and taking every shot off a high tee. Also if you use this method I found I could swing 105mph max, which for me means I'm giving up a lot of speed as well as creating poor impact.

It's great for winning bets as a trick shot but not practical.

Wrong again. Sorry man.

That's an old video. Have seen it several times.

  With some practice and fixing your driver swing, your ceiling is a lot higher with longer clubs in your bag. Imagine with 5 iron off the tee you are hitting a 7 iron into a hole, then after driver you might be hitting a PW. You would be closer to the green to start, potentially can hit a better and closer shot to the hole and have more options available to you off the tee. It is a no-brainer that you should definitely have the driver in your bag, though you should practice with it to ensure you are hitting it well
