stony Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 wins Louisiana Golf Association Four-Ball Championship That's cool. I remember a year or two back there was an article about Hangartner and Williams golfing at Oak Hill during training camp and Williams shot something like an 83. Pretty neat stuff.

Rockinon Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I wonder how far he can hit one. I used to play with a friend built like a football player and was always playing catch up because he could drive farther. Williams can probably knock one into outer-space.

CowgirlsFan Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 It is good to see him getting in shape with all that golf in the Louisana humidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todd Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Size has nothing to do with how far you hit the golf ball, especially girth. Flexibility and fast-twitch muscles are what does it. Dustin Johnson is 6' 4", which is tall, but he only weighs 190. Bubba Watson is 6'3" and weighs 180. Sergio Garcia is 5'10' and weighs 160. Hitting the ball far has zero to do with muscle. If I had to guess, Williams probably has a killer short game and that's what allows him to post good scores at golf. I wonder how far he can hit one.

The kid that hits the ball the farthest among the players I know is only 5'9" and probably 140 soaking wet. He crushes the ball consistently 320-330 with accuracy and is a scratch golfer. Myself on the other hand, at 6'1" and 210, I usually get it out there 290-300 which I'm more than happy with. If you know how to coordinate the muscles used in the golf swing with the correct timing, anyone can hit the ball 300+ (okay, most people ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolinaBill Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 pft, well, geez, I hope he spends as much time practicing shedding blocks as he does his golf swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappy Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Hopefully the only thing that stays sub-par is his golf game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
