These Guys Seek To Defy the Golf Gods | Shark Tank
I work at a golf course and saw a guy using these clubs and asked him why not just play regular golf. His response was that he was injured in war and couldn’t rotate his back well enough to swing the club anymore. So fling golf got him out on the course where he could still enjoy playing with his mates. So it’s not just for young healthy folks.
Love this!!

What a nice thing to see
So how does he fling it same concept
@@Freshalways7414 over his shoulder
"we don't care" is one of the best lines I've ever seen someone say on the show
“You are so greeedy” lmaoo
Kevin was right that the country clubs he belongs to would never allow that
I find that hard to believe. You paid your dues you play how you wanna play
@@rodneypratt4324 false
@@rodneypratt4324 fancy country clubs have tons of rules. Doesn’t matter how much money you pay, if you violate rules they won’t let you do certain activities.
@@ST5S5 yes I understand that part. And I was a waiter at the Austin Country Club, at the 19th hole, also known as the Harvey Penick room. The course is not always full you can sneak that in or just go ahead and play. I find it hard to believe that they would tell you you can't use that. It would definitely speed up play. That's my opinion
@@rodneypratt4324 I don’t doubt that some people might try to sneak it in but every country club has old guys on the golf course that complain about anything and everything, so once that happens it would be the end of it imo
As a 63-year old man you're thinking wait a minute there's no divots in the Fairways or rough I'm not going to hurt myself when I accidentally hit a root are you kidding me I think this is cool man
i cannot believe they actually gave offers
Bet Happy Gilmore would love this club.
Happy gilmore accomplished that feat no more than an hour ago
Looks easy enough
Also me: Throws the club 30 yards 😂😂😂
Pretty sure I came here because of looking at these on Amazon. Funny to see how it’s taking off. I’m looking to get one for me and my son.
As a former lacrosse player I would love this. Bombs all day.
Would love to try out this type of golf
Tell us you shoot 130 without telling us you do
It is a really cool idea because it almost hits a market like frisbee golf but you can actually play it with a regular golf ball and at a real golf course that allows it.
Kevin's said at the end of the video You come here the right place is savage 🤣
I felt that "We don't care" 😌😌😌
golf is growing larger and larger each year, especially thru covid. and younger people are playing it more and more as it gets more popular.
That's interesting, because the golf courses are dying all around where I live.
cap
Yeah man, where I live lots of people my age golf.
@@thisisaloadofbarnacles921 not in Arizona, Florida or South Carolina
@@elivr6046 I live in one of those states, and I can confirm in my town a neighborhood that was created for the sole purpose of having a golf course no longer has the golf course operating.
Kevin calling someone greedy🤣🤣😭🤣🤣😭🤣
I see myself trying this new sport and quickly throwing my back out
Fling golf looks so awkward, I'd throw out my back
Now they are worth $230 million by the way, recently raised funding From Goldman Sachs
Sharks cut is valued at 57-58 million.Has to be one of the most successful products yet on this show
I don't understand why companies nowadays are worried about valuations to keep raising more funding. If a company gets enough traction, it should be able to sustain it's own growth and not have to keep diluting it's shares. It's like everybody wants to be a tech startup nowadays and follow the same business model.
no, they just have more debt,
That’s a lie.
@@Editnamehere its youtube people believe anything
Great idea, If I owned a golf course, I see 0 reason to not allow this product. It does what a golf club does in different form factor. Like the fact Mr.Wonderful is upset is ridiculous if it does nothing different but allow a different throw method then it is great. I am not saying you will be allowed on pro tours, but that is not the mission.
Not only that low cost of entry. You don't need to lug around a bunch of different clubs for the way the golf ball lies. Golf courses could still charge same rates they charge golfers. And without all the fuss with clubs you can play through holes faster! I see this product as a win win product.
So it's lacrosse....
I saw a guy on tik Tok doing using this technique to golf
I like this WAY better than golf
LaGolf would be a better name!
I'm sure that's been taken ages ago
It should be a sports on its own. Design a field for it. It's either competing for distances or hitting targets. It's not golf....call it something.
Kinda like how frisbee golf is it’s own thing 🤷🏻♂️
I actually want to enjoy a beautifully designed golf course in a quicker and more exciting way. There's too much involved with golf for people to commit to it. I actually think this is great. I want to try it.
thats crazy, ive played fling golf
What is gawf?
I love CNBC
“We’ve raised two million dollars”
Kevin-🤨
3:13 hahahahahaha
This would not be allowed at Bushwood.
You'll get nothing, and you'll like it!
I didn't see this coming at all, thought for sure everyone would be out on this one, I just don't see this getting very big. 🤔
They named it golf offcourse the billionaires are into it
@@xlncy I guess that's a start, but unless they're charging millions to play this game then it's still not going to be a big business, there's only a little over 700 billionaires in the US (roughly 2,700 worldwide), you want the masses to get into it, not a small few. 🤔
It's risky but I think it could be big for younger kids and teenagers I don't think it's going to be big for adults but if you get a lot of teenagers out there bringing their friends and they're playing that and they're spending money it could become a big thing.
@@xmobkilla9067 My thoughts exactly plus a golf course can push more fling golfers through because they play through faster.
And yet, there's a whole professional tour now. @@xmobkilla9067
Say goodbye to your rotator cuff
What do you mean?
I went golfing once. The place I went were absolutely ridiculous. Watched us like a hawk, drove over any single time they even thought you were doing something wrong. I don’t see many places allowing this.
Might as well use an air cannon too
I would think younger people would prefer smacking the ish out of something rather than throwing it lol
No, golf takes too long. I think this is better because you don't have to sift through clubs to figure out the best was to whack a ball. And it will make playing through a course faster.
God of Golf 😁
Reinventing Lacrosse anyone?
“the average golfer gets older every year”
ain’t that for everything 😂
No it’s not for everything, the average golfer age getting older doesn’t mean the same thing as every golfer gets older
I got a brilliant idea! Instead of throwing footballs, we just hit then with big golf clubs. I'll call it Kickball! That's not a thing yet, right?
Don't let your dreams be dreams
So a lacrosse stick?
Ms.Lori is so gorgeous 😍
Stop simping
Why wouldn’t you just play frisbee golf?
“A country club in Brooklyn”
he acts like it wasnt just him playing at those places lol
so is this lacrosse but with a golf ball 🤔imagine golfing then getting hit in the head with a golf ball
Just like golf now
This is such a stupid comment 😂
Comment makes no sense that could happen with normal golf at any moment lmao
@@fatsnowdog4173 ngl never been golfing but i just assume your chances of getting hit is more likely LOL. I think i was a little high when i made this comment too 😬
FORE!!!!!
Lacrosse
this is a dumb idea and I could never see it being used at a country club
Weird game.
There is no chance anybody will get hit in the head by that stupid stick swinging around...disc golf already solved most of the cost issues and it's way better to watch...this is silly.
"there is no chance anybody will get hit in the head by that stupid stick swinging around"
......what do you think golf involves? Not swinging a stick around? If you're close enough to get hit in the head by this you weren't standing in a good spot for a standard swing either.
If anything this is less dangerous as the only threat IS the club. Helluva lot less likely somebody flings it into a tree and it ricochets back. Easier to aim because the swing it overhead it's going straight at whatever you point your toes to.
edit: From a golfer perspective. Yeah this is dumb. But for those that can't golf due to injury it gives them a chance to play somehow.
Just use an aluminum bat
Happy Gilmore theft
Why not just throw it...
Most people can’t throw 20 yards let alone tee off with their hand
Is that how america made an a already sport (fotboll) and changed the name to soccer. Do the same with golf. Take the sport haha
Throw my back out first throw.
I’m out!
This has to be the dumbest thing Ive seen on Shark Tank
Hey if u read this u should do dmt lsd and ayahuasca its life changing we're all the same consciousness creating reality through the mind🧠👁🕉
one of these days..
idk about the ayahuasca but dmt and lsd are lit
A,B,C, bad b*$&£ double 'D' doing E.
I totally agree with you bud
don't know what that is, don't care, please don't tell me
Pointless
Ehh…
This is a waste of time and money
Golf is stupid
Rubbish
:D
“The average golfer gets older every year.” That was probably one of the most obvious, useless statements I’ve ever heard on Shark Tank lol
its not obvious
average of basketball players not going up
average only goes up if young people don't replace
They don't mean the average golf player grows a year older every year like any human does. They mean that, say you took all golfers and go the average age, 59. Next year, you have fewer younger players, more older players. Now the average age is 62. They mean every year, there are fewer younger players, more older players, not that anyone who plays golf gets older as time moves forward.
So obvious and useless that you didn’t even understand it -_-
Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38
Jesus said go door to door, not comment on youtube
I can't stand Kevin O'Leary's mouth he's so insulting to people he likes to kick them while they're down he humiliates them I think he tries to make himself look better in the eyes of the other sharks all he does is makes himself look ridiculous
