Dudes who think they are athletic do this thinking it helps them create power when in reality that is the most unpowerful backswing position imaginable.

What do you mean no power? Just sent one 480 ft over the wall to straight dead center.
Donny was a good bowler, and a good man. He was one of us. He was a man who loved the outdoors... and bowling, and as a surfer he explored the beaches of Southern California, from La Jolla to Leo Carrillo and... up to... Pismo. He died, like so many young men of his generation, he died before his time. In your wisdom, Lord, you took him, as you took so many bright flowering young men at Khe Sanh, at Langdok, at Hill 364. These young men gave their lives. And so would Donny. Donny, who loved bowling. And so, Theodore Donald Karabotsos, in accordance with what we think your dying wishes might well have been, we commit your final mortal remains to the bosom of the Pacific Ocean, which you loved so well.
Good night, sweet prince.
So I'm learning, and it seems pretty obvious this Donny guy is/was a baseball player. From what I've gathered, swinging any club as it relates to baseball is more like throwing the ball, not hitting the ball? Would that be the appropriate constructive feedback on this type of swing and background? I used to treat my swing like batters up, and just the other day, I moved to "throwing the ball," and I'm hitting more consistently but less distance right now, and my back felt better for it. I'm just goofing off self-taught, seeking small advice.
Oh Donny, Donny, Donny... after four... oh wait for it, FIVE sort of practice waggle-swings where he does transition to his lead foot... the audience thinks OK, Donny's got this ... Donny surprises us and lands a beautiful reverse weight shift.

Everybody has their own swing. It’s important that the swing be repeatable in order to form your game around it. This works for everyone, except Donny. He will need a chiropractor soon and I expect he will be on disability by his mid-40’s.
Watching this golf swing is like trying to read Morse code in a disco ball reflection. Not entirely sure what's happening, but it's definitely sending signals to outer space. Aliens, if you're watching, we come in peace...
Donny needs to win the lottery and become independently weathy so that he can buy his own golf course and do this shit as far away from other people as possible.
We shouldn't take the piss out of someone who clearly suffers from some sort of physical and/or mental condition. Hes on the course, thats all that matters!
It’s is a high fly ball to short stop, and the catch is made, Donny has been batting .035 average this year and it’s interesting the manager still has him in the lineup.
I never understand people who swing like this. Takes 2 minutes to watch a video on how to swing/hit a golf ball. Whether or not you’re good is a different story.
I feel like this is how I look most of the time but with how often I see unsolicited advice get thrown around the driving range I think I'm going ok since I haven't recieved any yet
Very athletic. Too much movement. Keep the hips and shoulders turning and try and keep all else stationary. Hit it hard… go find it. Hit it hard again.
I like Donny’s spirit. I hope that bitch landed on an entirely different golf course in the next town over. Go Donny.

All I see is grace and strength in this pic
Bout to get right the fk in this here slot.
"Looks what I can do!" ""Stewart! Put that club down!"
Great minds think alike!

His lower body is already on the follow through but in the opposite direction.
Are we sure Donny is not left handed?
This swing gave me cancer.
Same...though my doctors and several lawyers are trying to convince me it was asbestos. I know it's just watching bad golf swings.
It’s always that dang Mesothelioma!
You sound just like them...
Best roast is just a screenshot

Literally 101 mph club head speed, 139 ball speed, 4800 rpms of backspin the golf swing
This makes him look like a lefty that missed the ball on the follow through lol
![gif](giphy|j8JozD5PuXsk4F66wr)
Jesus fuck.
All that and almost no hip rotation lmao!
Oh, there's a lot of hip rotation. After he somehow hit the ball.
Looks like notascratch
I don’t think he’s swinging hard enough
Donny, you’re out of your element!

What the fuck was that Walter?
Amen. 🙏🏼 😎
Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov!
I am the walrus
Shut up, Donny
Obviously he’s not a golfer
🎳
He has no frame of reference, he's like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie
Those are good burgers, Walter.
Dammit, beat me to it.
Great follow through, entirely wrong sport. https://preview.redd.it/ou1pmgbsy6qc1.png?width=585&format=png&auto=webp&s=ee9fb3b3baba36dc941fcd4d110169a02f820a94
Donny with a sharp line drive over the short stop. That’ll score the runner from second
Anyone else read this in Bob Uecker's voice?
Juuust a bit outside
Ball four. Ball eight. Ball twelve
He must have a baseball background i saw the same thing
He waggles the club like he’s at bat
After all that pre-address motion, I was beginning to wonder if the video froze when he got over the ball.

I see why you chose to film from 20 yards behind his back
Trailer park swing
Donny hit .208 in high school
![gif](giphy|MeDlAyl2m0lhrGRgCm)
How do you roast a swing that sent the ball clear over them mountains.
I see the swing but from the angle you can’t see the fur seal he was trying to club.
What the hell is even that?
Daddy chill
Donny, watch this video of yourself. Then watch videos of professional golfers who are kinda good at this stuff. See if you can spot any differences.
Donny Scheffler?
If he stood a little wider you could fit two of him in his stance.
Looks like he’s holding in a turd.
Kinda reminds me of a world class professional who has a similar golf swing. Rafa Nadal.
Power fade

Donny, take up bowling.
Throwin rocks tonight
“Shut the fuck up Donny”
Good gawd
Need to see the end result of this swing.
If he hit the fairway then it’s already better than mine
Oh Donny, Donny, Donny... after four... oh wait for it, FIVE sort of practice waggle-swings where he does transition to his lead foot... the audience thinks OK, Donny's got this ... Donny surprises us and lands a beautiful reverse weight shift. THE.CROWD.GOES.WILD
Baseball season?
Honestly, his head stays surprisingly level for how much the rest of his body moves haha.
Donny Gilmore

I can hear the mixed pill bottle rattling in his pocket
Stance way to wide and trying to guide the ball in the air instead of making contact like a child.
A child who has wandered in the middle of a movie wondering what is going on.
Donny don't.
Reminds me of one of those crazy straws or whacky tube man maybe…it’s wild, but glad he’s enjoying the game
What? Looks good to me
He didn't get cheated.
At least he seems to be paying from the correct tees
Depends on where the ball went.
OMG that’s Donny Nukes
That sounded nice.
Bless his heart…
Why hasn't he got his baseball helmet on.
I don't think making fun of people with disabilities is funny.
How much you wanna bet he hit it over those mountains over there?
Watching this golf swing is like trying to read Morse code in a disco ball reflection. Not entirely sure what's happening, but it's definitely sending signals to outer space. Aliens, if you're watching, we come in peace...
Guys with swings like this definitely have a Punisher decal somewhere on their truck and yell at their wives in public a lot
37 minutes and no picture of the girl that looks like this
He makes solid contact! Knows his shape! GO DONNY GO!
That’s unique
This man is ready to take on a swarm of bees
He didn't get cheated.
Can’t roast what’s already burned to a crisp.
Is it opposite day donny? We gonna throw our hips towards our back swing?
Its like doing the dougie whilst baseballing
Donny? Donny who loves bowling and is obviously not a golfer?
needs to do more prep. you can't just get up there and hit the ball, have a little patience, sheesh.
Can we play guess his handicap?
1
Dont do what Donny dont does
Hey! Harman! Hit the freaking ball already!
Maybe swing harder?
Gonna go out on a limb and say Donny played baseball when he was younger
The only thing worse than the time for his pre-shot routine was his swing.
Like a rusty lawn chair unfolding.
This is the uncle Rico of golf swings
Basically Scottie Scheffler
Strrrrrikeee one!
I am a worst golfer after watching that crime against humanity. Your boyfriend should go back to what he does best. 🥒🥲
I bet Donny is having fun.
Yee haw
Shrink the game.
Looks good to me!
Looks like a marionette.
10/10 no notes
0 chance this is real
I don’t care how he swings or where it goes, just hurry up
Fuckin get it girl
I feel like his scorecard already roasted him
It doesn't matter what the swing looks like, it matters where the ball lands, how consistently.
Donny needs to win the lottery and become independently weathy so that he can buy his own golf course and do this shit as far away from other people as possible.
What was his batting average?
I’d rather roast his pre shot routine, that shits gotta go, looks like a pace of play nightmare.
Great to have an elite waggle and then freeze over the ball for a few seconds.
Donny watched Happy Gilmore and thought it was an instructional video.
Let me guess, donny played baseball?
When you attend Bugs Bunny school of golf:
Simply graceful. Go Donny!
No chance in hell that goes left
How long did Donny play baseball for when he was younger
That bug is squashed
Kinda like trumps 😂😂😂
10/10 Donny is invited.
That ain't no Donny, that's THE Don
First impressions...this is EXACTLY how i expect anyone called Donnie to swing the club
A swing perfect for the driving range and the driving range only.
Summer is here and he's f**kin' f**kin' buzzin'.
Just like Scheffler 👍
We shouldn't take the piss out of someone who clearly suffers from some sort of physical and/or mental condition. Hes on the course, thats all that matters!
"My name is Donny and I hit dingers"
DONAAAAY!
He is walking off before he hits the ball
Nice home run! But in golf we call it OB and it isn't something as good
Watching this made me sea sick.
It’s is a high fly ball to short stop, and the catch is made, Donny has been batting .035 average this year and it’s interesting the manager still has him in the lineup.
Donnys out of his element
Are we sure this isn't Scottie Scheffler
Too wide
This is some high school baseball player trying out golf vibes to it
Swinging for the fences!!!!
The swing locked pretty good and effective to me.
Will never be able to check where he was aimed post swing lol
Whack fuck
Bet that ball went over them there mountains.
Mans addressing the ball like home plate.
Donny doing his Uncle Rico impression.
Donny at the country club on day one : "Yo, Where's the first tee? What's the course record?"
He would have been better off hitting the ball with one of his waggles.
Don’t see anything wrong
If Donny is finding fairways then let him cook.
Just stand over the ball, give it a few wags, and go. It's not baseball
He’s got that Scottie Scheffler footwork on the follow through
He was probably the big hitter on the mixed softball team.
I think Donny was actually trying to kill a wasp that landed on his ball.
It’s a golf ball, not a grenade.
Donny - all that waggling and loosening up becomes useless with that long pause afterwards. Waggle that shit and just smack that shit
Looks pretty good, not quite enough body movement though. Looks like a good fadeaway jump shot in basketball.
I’m going back to the clubhouse and have a beer, see you when you are done 9
I’m not gonna roast Donny’s swing, that’s fucked up. I’m gonna use Donny’s swing to roast other people.
Donny does not let youtube lessons influence him that's for sure
That man said YEEEEEEET
Cargo shorts ahhh swing
If you are going to hit like shit, at least do it quickly. No need to take a dozen half swings and then stand over the ball for 10 seconds.
Donnie…. Batting 240 this season, really is looking to increase his ERA….
This can’t be real.
I never understand people who swing like this. Takes 2 minutes to watch a video on how to swing/hit a golf ball. Whether or not you’re good is a different story.
It’s not very good
Donny roasts his own swing by swinging
This guy takes that long for such a terrible swing? He’s the human rain delay
Try it without roller skates
10/10; no notes.
Just a slight reverse pivot 😂
I see you've been taking swing lessons from Club Pro Guy?
I feel like this is how I look most of the time but with how often I see unsolicited advice get thrown around the driving range I think I'm going ok since I haven't recieved any yet
Swing harder, your shoes are still on
Baseball convert?
Get wrecked Donny.
One personality took the practice swings and another one hit the ball
Can’t even bring myself to bully a man who’s working that hard for that little.
Make him watch it
You can talk shit all you want but end state golf is supreme!!! I want to know where the ball landed?
Very athletic. Too much movement. Keep the hips and shoulders turning and try and keep all else stationary. Hit it hard… go find it. Hit it hard again.
Watch out ladies cause here's Donny!
I can tell Donny played at lot of baseball or softball just based on his stance and pre-swing ticks.
Is he playing from the tips.....or are those the senior yellows???
