Longest 3ft Putt

[saevel25]

This reminds me of Kahkwa Golf Club that @iacas and I played this year. Hole number 9 has a horseshoe shaped mound that runs along the side and back of the green with a very steep slope. So the green is half bowl shaped.

The pin was on the left side of the bowl. So Erik & I went to the right side of the green and tried to make a putt by hitting the ball up the side of the bowl, having it travel along the side of the bowl around the green.

Both of our putts missed the hole by a few inches on either side, ended up about 5-7 feet below the hole. A really fun putt, but totally not required to actually make the putt.

That was cool.

That was cool.

I wonder how many takes it took.

So does that go into the books as a 3 foot putt or a 60 foot putt? Because that's technically a 60 or whatever foot putt made. no?

No. You'd have to figure in the actual distance of every breaking putt.

There is a lot of "real" or "fake"discussion on youtube.

Either way, I have to score this clip an A+ for creativity!!  Hahahaha

Nicola Love follows up with 21-year-old Greg Walker who explains thatthe crazy putt, at nearly 2.5 million views, was a dare from his dad who did the filming (believable since only a dad would frame it vertically).

"I really didn't think it would go in," he laughed. "It was a pure fluke."

Greg says he has been astonished at how quickly the video has gone viral.

He added: "I thought the video would get a few views... but I never expected so many people to watch it."

Greg studied professional golfing at college before becoming director of Golfing Links, a business he runs with his father.
