ILLEGAL VASELINE ON DRIVER FACE - LOWEST SPIN POSSIBLE

[@SuperKelbe]

Watch out for the guy who puts the Vaseline on the grip end ...

[@william8654]

Been greasing my driver for 3 years now. I could always drive the ball around 260-265 yards, but with a speed swing around 105 my wild shots would go OB. Starting greasing the driver head and noticed a huge difference right away. I might have lost 5-10 yards but I was hitting 75-80% of the fairways now instead of maybe 50%. My ball would go dead straight as you can`t slice or hook the ball. Only way I miss a fairway now is a dead pull or push.Went from a 15-16 handicap to a 10-11 just from being in play all the time. Key is do not put a heavy coat on. Put a dab of Vaseline on the corner of your towel. Wipe your driver before you start the round and that will last a few drives, then every 3-4 holes just act like you are cleaning your club and give it a quick wipe.

[@MM-rr1kp]

I can understand greasing the driver and enjoying playing your 2nd shot from the fairway the majority of the time. but you cant use those scores to get a handicap and dont even bother writing a number on the card because the lower scores are fraudulent. grease up and enjoy the game playing from the fairway, not losing balls, etc. but dont kid yourself, youre not a 10-11 handicap. and if you play in club tournaments or against your group for money while greasing up then you are just a cheat.

@@MM-rr1kp if that's your concern, then you're absolutely right. If you are a casual player who wants to play a round and not lose a dozen golf balls, then grease that thing up!

[@insufficientfunds5603]

100% going to try this at the range.

[@insufficientfunds5603]

Didnt see any swing speeds though. Guessing with that ball speed its 120-125?

[@Dynamic3DLtd]

Don't do it guys, there is a guy on my course who got caught cheating a few years ago (dropped another ball), and to this day, every time he wins a comp, everyone is whispering behind his back in the clubhouse on whether he might have cheated or not. My point is, this is flat out cheating and once you get caught once, you will always carry that stigma and it will carry from club to club.

[@craiggagnon8407]

who cares, most of the dweebs that have memberships lie about their scores constantly anyhow, county clubbers are horrible.

Hahahah oh mate. That is hysterical

[@william8654]

Been greasing for years. Used to cut my drives and now I hit them dead straight and longer. The key is you only need a light coat..no need to put it on heavy. Keep a dab on your towel and just act like you are cleaning your face before teeing off. I won my league last year and in the title match did not miss a fairway. Normally I hit around 60% of fairways without greasing. Good Luck guys!!

Back in the day I played junior golf with a guy who would spit on the face of his persimmon driver. It definitely gave him extra yards of roll. I really never questioned it lol.

[@donwitherstine3334]

I wonder what silicone spray would do?🤔

[@william8654]

It would work but it would be tough to apply during the round without other players noticing.

[@muddyboots1764]

I heard Lee Trevino talk about doing this a while back.

[@rainmasterx1]

I am a leisure golfer and not into Tournaments. Searching for extra yardage off the Tee finding the Fairway is always a plus. My only concern is whether we might have to wipe the ball after a long drive. It will be interesting to know if the ball kills the spin with Vaseline for the approach shots which might prevent the ball from biting the Green.

[@rainmasterx1]

It is against the regulations to wipe the ball if I am not mistaken. It doesn't matter if it is for casual play.

[@tmo4330]

You will get a flyer every now and then. Its worth having one per round air mailing the green.

[@humorss]

but its strange to do this on the course, can I mirror polish the face, will that work?

[@mr-dpc-5018]

Tried water/saliva on the driver club face yesterday, the ball seemed to make a different noise but went dead straight, less height as well. gained about 20 yards. I remember a few years ago watching Ross fisher and a few pro's doing this on the driving range at Wentworth in the BMW. really makes a difference.

[@michaelscales5996]

Jeremy ThorpeLiberal Party leader, had a different use for a towel and Vaseline.He was not a golfer but he had a stiff shaft.

[@MegaJoeytube]

Simon can you test lake balls compared to brand new balls. I see people saying that lake balls get water logged and they wouldn't use them. I personally cant tell any difference and when your paying £1 for a ball which is £4 new its a big saving.

[@canuck_gamer3359]

I know I'm really late with this response but I can tell you that I know something about urethane, which is what golf ball covers are made from. I don't think a ball that has been under water (fresh water, not salt) would be affected unless maybe it had been under water for years and other factors have had a chance to come into play. I personally have used balls that have been retrieved from water on the course I play regularly and never noticed a difference, not one little bit.

[@julietwhiskeypapa]

How baout a WD-40? Would that be too liquid in phase?

[@itsgrape4691]

I’m surprised that golf manufacturers don’t have some special material on the driver face to reduce friction. Teflon driver maybe?

[@Rob-xz6uv]

Good golfers make use of "friction" to induce spin, when they want the ball to curve a certain way.

[@peterthegolfer2250]

That was a slippery video 😂😂😂😂😂😂🏌️‍♂️⛳️

[@ben_joven]

You have to do it irl, out on the range, because the simulator doesn’t catch the actual ball flight after it hits the impact screen

[@dapperdank3701]

Of course it does 😂

[@dapperdank3701]

That is real life 😂😂. You mean to say 'outdoors'. That GC3 launch monitor shows the exact ball flight your getting outdoors.

[@davidhorne2326]

The local public course had a ton of gamblers. They would have a “Vaseline Open” every once in a while! They would stick a glob on the cart and get a smear whenever needed.

[@alienpixelgaming3803]

TRY POLY MAX EXTREMES it's better and no mess. GREAT VIDEO !

[@aimeagle]

A old friend from work showed me this 20 years ago. I was slicing my drives but a little Vaseline and that pup was straight down the middle. I did that for one 9 hole round on a league night. Didn't feel right cheating though. Just worked and fixed the slice lol.

[@mikethewhizz5085]

I discovered that a ball of wax can be used in place of marker tape

[@Mr.mallaer]

I have heard of better use for vaseline

[@TheTeeDay]

Wouldn’t backspin technically give you the longest distance ?

[@miftahfaridy8927]

Your speed looks different between before and after you put vaseline..

[@craiggagnon8407]

The issue I see here is that your ball will now have vaseline on it, so your next shot, and iron shot, will feel the effects and they won't be desirable.

[@tmo4330]

One shot per round will fly on you. (second shot from fairway). Thats why you only put a small amount.

[@pulldpin67]

What a great swing...

[@barking_mad6649]

That's a significant difference. Good job tour pros and their caddies are honest enough not to think about wiping some on and off between shots eh? 🤑

[@davenuttall3682]

Why don’t you try the same thing wrapping PTFE plumbers tape around the driver I suspect this would give the same result

[@handieman60]

[@tmo4330]

Oh my gosh! Micheal you are the one that vaseline will help the most. Get that spin down to 1,900 rpm with just a little grease and you will be the longest driver on the course. Don't listen to those who suggest you get a "less lofted" driver. It will only make your shots curve more. People spend thousands of dollars to get the numbers you can have just by using grease.

@@tmo4330 In all seriousness, my clubhead speed is 127 and my ball speed stays around high 170s - low 180s. That being said, even when I carry it over 300, my spin is 3500 - 4000. I lose soooo much distance. I'm going to try this for sure
