- We came up with a super great idea, incredibly safe.
(club shoots)
(man screaming)
- [Host] What!
This is Claire and she is golfing for her first time today.
(Claire chuckles)
Just relax, just relax, take it easy.
In today's video, Lincoln and I have
a bit of a surprise for her.
One of the weirdest golf things you've ever seen.
Something that is going to make her
instantly a better golfer.
The swingless golf club.
First we're gonna figure out how this thing works.
Then we're gonna go out on the course
and see if we can actually have her
get closer to the hole than us.
It looks pretty gimmicky, but it looks pretty amazing too.
Okay, this is it.
Taking it out for the first time.
The swingless club.
It says Ezee swing on it.
All right, these are two professional golfers here.
- Whoa, it's heavy.
This is weird.
- [Host] How much heavier than your normal club?
- Ten pounds.
- Whoa, what the.
- [Host] (laughing) Isn't that weird?
Get the ball on the ground.
You put it next to it.
You put some sort of bullet cartridge in there.
No, you don't swing it.
It's a swingless golf club.
And then somehow you use this trigger mechanism
and pow, it shoots it away.
Alright swingless golf club, you wanna give it a shot?
No, you're not supposed to swing it.
- Here.
- [Host] Okay, let me get the cartridges.
Okay, these are the cartridges.
Open this up and get one out.
- They're just in a plastic bag.
- Plastic stuff?
- No.
- Oh my gosh, they're actually bullets.
- [Host] (laughs) They look like bull--
Is there like some kind of warning on here or something?
Alright let's try this thing.
Somehow we have to get this bullet cartridge thing
inside of the club.
So if we open it up
we can see there's 75 yards, a hundred yards,
125, 150, 175, 200 yards.
Oh, this must be where you put the cartridge in.
Okay.
Whoa, that seems dangerous.
Maybe it goes in the back side.
Oh my gosh, this seems so sketchy.
Okay, it's locked into place.
I don't really know what's happening here.
I just set this in like that.
I don't know how loud this is gonna be.
This could be really loud.
Let's try this out.
Somehow you're supposed to pull on this and push a safety.
I don't even know.
We probably should read the instructions,
but I don't see any.
Okay.
Alright we're gonna try this.
I feel like...
(club pops)
Oh my gosh!
Whoa!
What!
Look how far it went!
- [Cameraman] Wow, that was a good shot!
Look, look!
(laughing)
- [Lincoln] Green, it almost went to green.
- Okay that crushed it.
I think that was on the 200 yard setting.
- That went about 200 'cause yellow's 200,
and it went about...
- [Host] It was solid too, no cut, no draw, no--
- About 201 yards.
- 201 yards, oh my gosh.
That's some power; you wouldn't wanna put your hand by that.
So Claire, let's give it a try.
Pull back the safety and then...
(club pops)
Whoa, whoa, crushed it!
- [Boston] Oh, but her draw.
(man laughs)
- That's too easy.
- That was pure.
- Claire, your first ever off the tee box,
and you hit it 215.
- That was perfect.
- [Host] Good luck, Boston.
Pressure's on.
- Pressure's on.
(club clinks)
- [Host] Oooh, that looks pretty good.
Oh, right where Claire's is.
(upbeat music)
Okay Claire, how was your first shot?
How did it feel?
- Good.
- Are you proud of how far you hit it?
- Yes.
- Okay, let's see where your ball ended up.
We're coming up to the fairway.
There's some balls here.
The first ball.
The shortest drive of them all.
- [ Lincoln] Yeah, let's go.
- [Host] Set, oh that's Claire!
There's Boston's, there's Lincoln's.
So probably 30 yards, 40, 30 to 50 yards shorter.
Yeah impressive, impressive.
Shot number two.
Can she get on the green in two?
Go for it, Claire.
(club pops)
- [Boston] Oh!
- [Host] Oh, it's going.
- [Boston] That is on it.
- [Lincoln] That's going right at it.
- [Boston] Right at it.
- [Host] Did that hit the stick?
Did that hit the stick?
- She's a natural!
(laughing)
- So good.
- [Host] Wow, on the green in two.
(club pops)
Here's the hole right here.
That's where the Ezee Golf went in two shots.
This is a par 4; it's 450 yards.
That's something else.
So this is how you adjust it.
Right now the green is right there.
It's about 150 yards out.
We're gonna see how accurate this is.
Let's see if you put it at 150.
Now we are a little bit at elevation here in Utah.
So a ball will probably fly farther
than in some cities.
You have to keep it about half inch to an inch away.
So right now it think you're a little too far away.
Okay, Boston.
Wait till he's off.
Wait, you might hit him, so let's wait till he's off.
- We good?
- [Host] You're good.
(club pops)
- [Host] Oh.
- [Boston] Fore!
- [Host] Short.
Wait, it looks like it's the right distance.
You just missed to the left.
Okay, this is a par 3, 175 yards.
We've set it at 175.
Let's see if we can get it on the green.
(club pops)
Oooh, a little bit right of the green.
That's is amazing though how close it is.
(upbeat music)
We came up with a super great idea, incredibly safe.
We've seen a video recently where Mark Rober
and Destin from Smarter Every Day
shot a golf ball at 500 miles an hour into a watermelon,
and the watermelon completely disappeared.
This is not 500 miles an hour, but--
Here's our fancy set up.
We have this watermelon right here.
A golf ball with our logo on it.
No cars, clear.
- [Kid] No cars whatsoever.
(club pops)
(host screams)
(kids laughing)
- It got all over me.
- [Man] Took the top off.
(laughing)
- Look at it.
Oh my gosh, that was cool.
- [Kid] Did you see that!
- Wait, did anybody see where the ball went?
(slow electronic music)
I didn't hear any neighbors' windows breaking,
so that's good.
You guys are all hiding over here, I love it.
Oh, there it is!
I see it.
We are safe here at What's Inside.
We only do things in a controlled environment.
There's some watermelon juice on the camera.
That was fun but we got this small watermelon.
Three.
Two.
One.
(watermelon explodes)
Ahh!
(slow electronic music)
Oh, split it in half.
Split it right in half.
It went about, I don't know, 40 yards.
Now I have watermelon literally all over me.
This thing is fun. (laughs)
It is practical, it is fun.
I don't see why you wouldn't wanna buy one of these.
And they didn't pay us for this.
They have no idea we're making this video.
This is a golf club that's made for a lot of people.
Maybe somebody that used to golf a lot,
and now they're too old or they've had an injury
where they can't fully swing a driver,
but they still want to go out and golf with people.
As long as you can chip and putt,
you can take this thing out there with you,
and you can hit the ball anywhere
from 280 yards down to 75 yards.
All you have to do is push a button.
(club pops)
- Oh my gosh!
(laughs)
- Ow, my ear's ringing.
- We wanted to see what this looked like in slow motion
when it hit the ball.
What type of compression does it have?
So we reached out to our friends
at Kuma Films, who specialize in slow motion videography
and it's really cool to see
when this thing pops out and hits the golf ball.
It hits it with a lot of force
and can fire that ball really far.
And even in however many thousands of frames per second,
it was still hard to capture this shooting out.
Then we, of course, decided to have some fun.
We had some gender reveal golf balls
to see if it would make those explode
and in real time speed it doesn't look as cool
when you hit a golf club against those
gender reveal golf balls but in slow motion.
(slow inspiring music)
So that's how this thing works.
That's how it hits the golf ball.
It's pretty amazing.
I'm sad to get rid of this thing,
but I think it's time to take it apart
and see what's inside of it.
- Yep.
(slow railroad music)
- Oh, whoa.
- What? - Oh, okay.
- So here's the outer shell.
This is the thing that slides back and forth
(club pops)
That's as far as we can get with the good old tool system.
You can see the back of it.
It's time to get angle grinder out.
- This isn't gonna be, it's solid metal.
That's gonna take a while.
- [Host] I want to cut this part off first.
See if we can pull it apart and get the pieces out.
So safety glasses.
Lincoln, I have a job for you.
Hold this down right there.
Hold that tight, push it down right here,
and then I'm gonna come in and cut it right here.
All right, here we go.
(tool grinds)
(grinding drowns out speaker)
It's the sparks.
Here I'll just block them from you more.
(upbeat electronic music)
Boom.
- [Lincoln] Oh boy.
- We did it!
Look at this thing smoking.
That thing is so hot.
(hammer banging)
- That's gonna take a while.
(hammer banging)
Well there's a--
Here we go, here we go.
- You just had to twist it. - Twist it.
- I just had to twist it. - He just had to twist it.
- We're so smart, oh more things!
Sweat is beginning to pour.
- Wait that's not, you're just pushing it in.
- Whoa.
- Well.
- We're gonna take a sweat break.
There's only one other option here.
We're just gonna take the angle grinder
and just try cutting it right in half.
This could take a while.
Commence time lapse.
(upbeat electronic music)
It's almost completely cut around the outer shell,
but look at all the metal shavings coming out.
(upbeat electronic music)
Entire thing is cut around the edge.
It's just not coming off.
(club bangs)
Oh no, the whole shaft is off!
I can turn it a little bit.
This thing is a beast.
(upbeat electronic music)
It is tough.
It passes the road test.
(upbeat electronic music)
(hammer pounding)
To the road!
(upbeat electronic music)
This thing is impossible to get into.
Now I'm just gonna hurt you.
Huh!
(laughs)
That thing just came right off.
Why'd I put it back on?
I'm stupid.
Okay, there we go.
It came off!
We can see inside of it.
Let's go in where it's nice and cool.
Okay Lincoln, I've been laboring in the heat,
and I think we've figured it out.
I cut this giant metal piece off.
I cut all around it thinking I could take it off,
but I couldn't, but look at this chamber.
- [Lincoln] Whoa what?
- Really cool, so this all got really hot.
- Ow, yeah.
- Yeah it's hot. - Yeah.
- So this metal bar right here
that goes all the way through from the bottom.
See this hole right there?
It's only there just to keep this from flying off.
Think if you hit that ball--
- Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- This would shoot off like a bullet.
- For some reason I thought there would be electronics in it
but that's cool, that's really cool.
- Yep, no electronics, just metal and then the gun.
When it fires inside of there, you put the chamber in,
it fires, it sends the explosion
down through this gun-like chamber with all the holes in it.
- [Lincoln] Yeah, that's really cool.
- This fires out, and once it hits the ball,
this keeps it from flying off and hurting somebody
or just, yeah, flying off in general.
That would be bad news but you gotta think about it.
Yes, it's really, really tough,
but that's because this thing is literally
having explosions in it over and over again.
It has to be solid and sturdy.
- Yeah that's some strong metal. You...
- Angle grinder. - cut that for a while.
- Yeah. - Look how thick that is.
- I threw it on the asphalt 20 times
and didn't do anything to it really.
Where do you get the chambers?
How much does it cost?
I'll put the link in the description.
It's not a sponsored video.
Let us know what you think about this thing.
Would you buy something like this?
Do you know somebody that used to love golfing
and hasn't been playing because maybe their back hurts
or they're getting older.
- It's actually, it's really fun.
That's how you make up most of your strokes.
It would be fun.
- That's what's inside of this thing.
- No. - Thanks for watching.
(club bangs) - That's what's inside.
- That's at the end, we're done.
- No, but you're not supposed to say that.
- I'm saying it.
That's what's inside, that's what we're called.
- Yeah, but then they all leave.
- Then go leave.
Go watch our family channel video right now.
- Oh yeah, go leave.
- Check it out, leave.
Get outta this video, goodbye.
- Go away.
- Go away, What does that mean?
- Not you, you stay here.
You stay here.
- Wait. - They're leaving.
You stay here. - Okay, sorry.
I'm back.
- Bye.
- But I thought we were leaving.
- No they are.
- But what about us?
- We're just staying here. - They all left.
- What if some of them wanted to stay?
- Hi.
- What if they're here right now?
There's five people.
Hey, guys! - Hey, guys.
- Thanks for staying but really,
go watch the other family channel video right now.
Okay, we are leaving, bye.
- We're leaving now?
You sure? - Get out of here, go.
Let 'em go! - What?
I'm so confused.
- Okay, stop it.
