Tim,

 

I'm trying to discourage and your encouraging this. Next thing we will see on tv is "Golf tricks gone bad'" with some poor kid with a golfball stuck in his eye because his drunk(sober) idiot friend tried this shot even though he did not have the talent/speed to pull this one off.

 

 

By the way, loving the swingspeed!

...but if any of you do decide on trying this ill-advised stunt (you know who you are...all of you who figure you average 350+ yards every time ;)), make sure you video that stuff. I'm getting tired of all the skaters and snowboarders getting all the airtime on MTV's "Scarred". I want to see some impacted eyeballs and dislocated testicles caused by a high speed collision with a golf ball. So come on people, stupid-up! :lol:

Nobody has mentioned anything about the thickness. I can guarantee that I have some 3/4" plywood that nobody on earth could hit a golfball through. Now if we are talking about 1/8" thick plywood, I think that my 10 year old could put a ball through it. It is a matter of picking the correct thickness.

 

Now who remembers the Top Flite commercial of Evan "Big Cat" Williams putting a Top Flite through a phonebook that looked about 3" thick, with a persimmon headed driver?

1/2inch should be no problem. Jutst make sure you hit a draw, that'll get through there better with the overspin.

 

 

1/2in thick should be no problem? I can tell you one thing you NEED 200+mph ball speed to get thru 1/2in thick plywood. If I'm not swinging at my best while performing a LD demonstration, I WILL NOT EVEN ATTEMPT IT. The board doesn't know the difference if your hitting a draw or a fade.

It's a joke man. Figured draw would be the most likely to come back and hit someone in the groin. :lol:

 

A golf ball shot out a cannon wouldn't go through 1/2 inch plywood. It's harder than a golf ball.

I'm glad to hear you were just joking. Sorry for missing that point. But I do use 1/2in for my tricks, no cannon involved, just raw speed.

 

I would still like to have this forum locked and removed, because of the possibility of someone getting hurt, then suing the crap out of everyone, because they can't take the blame for their own actions. You know the old "I didn't know who to do this until I saw it on a golf forum, then tried it because everyone thought it was cool, even though I don't have the talent to do it." So let's sue everyone else, I'm sure we can find someone to blame!
