Happy Gilmore is a Disc Golfer in Disguise

 

So, I stumbled across this video on Youtube today and I had a revelation. Imagine there is a disc in Padraig's left hand and low and behold, you have a typical x-step run up disc golf drive!

 

 

I am surprised I never made the connection before and im not sure if anyone else has.

I just thought this was really cool! They also completely break down the process with cool graphics and simulation.

Wow, that is SKILL.  I've tried many Happy Gilmore's at the range and only gotten around 10 that I didn't completely miss, top, or slice into oblivion.  The ones I did hit got me around 275, which was awesome for me. 

 

Don't play much ball golf anymore since my clubs got stolen and none of my buds are lefties, but this vid kinda makes me wanna play.  I'll probably get that out of my system in field practice today, yesterday my brother who has only played one round of DG beat my best throw ever of 330 ft, a 334 ft with a 147 gm DX beast that just held the line and didn't fade one inch.  I was shocked.  After a bit I just got determined and focused to beat that.  My 330 ft was a fluke, too - but I managed to put it all together and with a 174-176 Elite Z Nuke SS into 7-10 mph wind I beat my brothers throw - 341 ft on the distance tracker.  

 

Anyways, great share, very entertaining video.
