jason may be have the fastest today but he is still trying to catch mike austin

mike austin's flammer shown here will enable any one of you to hit it 300 yards

They will beat their swords into golf clubs and their spears into putters. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. Old Tom Morris 2:4

to be truthiness, austin swing techniques are used by many long ball hitters, including zubiak himself while the the hammer is a marketing gimmick of a long ball champion

That old man is a joke straight up, the hammer is also a joke of a person.

The hammer claims to fly the ball 400+ consistently......??? I don't think so....

hahah what a clown

Tiger Woods would give Zuback a run, I believe, but Tiger plays the game for a reason, not just to mash golf balls.

Time to clear some things up.

The "old" man was the real deal. Mike Austin used to be the record holder for the longest drive ever on a golf hole. He hit it 515 yards with a 40mph wind. His swing speed was measured at over 150mph. Jack Hamm however is an idiot. He never even competed in a remax long drive event in his life. As for Tiger and Zuback. Tiger isn't even in the same zip code as Zuback when it comes to driving distance. Long ball hitters are a different kind of breed and most people just can't believe that there are A TON of people out there that hit it way further than any tour pro. Remember that charity event when zuback hit his drives 60yards+ past bubba watson? Tour pros aren't on the tour because they can hit it further than anybody else. They are on the tour because of their short game. As for swing speed and ballspeed. It varies from machine to machine. Professional long ball hitters are in the 140-155mph swing speed range and have ball speeds of 200mph+. This will give you an idea of how fast 140mph + swing speed is:

Golf is a game in which the ball always lies poorly and the player always lies well.

If you don't mean regular tour guys (Phil, Tiger, etc), I'm pretty sure both speed records would belong to Jason Zuback. Club head speed may not be listed, but his ball speed is reported to be 204 MPH in this particular attempt.

Wow! What's his handicap? But more importantly, how bad is his short game?

I believe his handicap is +2. It's a common misconception that long ball hitters are bad at golf.

He doesn't need to. He drives for dough.
