John Daly’s swing in slow motion (every angle) 

"I don't go to the gym, I can't smoke in there" John Daly..

The most naturally gifted and relaxed swing I have ever seen!

the distance he takes that club back is phenomenal. And he still gets the face square. Respect to you Mr Daly.

Watching this just confirms to me he is one of, if not THE, most naturally talented golfer ever. That swing is so unique - as many have pointed out it’s so “anti-textbook” - almost no “recommended” positions throughout the entire swing - and yet it won multiple majors and tournaments around the world. All on a fraction of the practice and preparation of his contemporaries. He’s an absolute friggin genius.

Keep fighting John..

Watching that gut in slomo is a thing of beauty

When your golf instructor tells you to transfer your weight. 👀

One of the most memorable and beautiful swings in golf history

The man still clears his hips like McIlroy. Seriously talented golfer. I could watch him strike the ball all day!!

I love this guy :( 9:00 is truly insane.

you can tell in slow motion. the power in his swing comes from a huge shoulder turn. the transition is a pulling of the left shoulder towards the target. It really looks very graceful, in slow motion.

I love his swing. John was the only player back in the 90s to average over 300 yard drives. Today the average is still below that. His short game was amazing too back then.

How can you not love this guy? And a beast of a swing! Driver in slow mo looks like he's swinging a rope he's got so much power! God bless John Daley!

As a big bloke who struggles with back swing distance this video has helped me a lot.

I think it looks beautiful. All that unwinding reminds me of Ben Hogan, long back swing ftw!

We have few in Arkansas that we truly are proud of. John Daly is definitely top of the list.

The man knows his own swing. Fantastic video.

I think the most impressive part of his swing is the fact that it hasn't changed at all as he's "bulked up" 😎/gotten older. It's still just as iconic now as it was in 1991

Everyone talks about how far JD hit the ball. What made JD a great golfer was his incredible touch in his short game.

His swing is a series of “so-called-bad-moves.” Yet, he plays better than 99.999% of golfers out there. Amazing and inspirational at the same time

Daly's swing is synonymous with his personality. You can tell a lot about a person by the way he swings a golf club.

His backswing is so long, he has plenty of time to unwind that hip-turn, amazing that he has control.

Pure raw talent!!!

His hips and knees doing the Elvis shuffle are a thing of beauty. So much power generated and face club square with his right elbow tucked in nicely on the downswing.

I love watching his swing

Unreal and phenomenal at the same time....just wow

you guys are starting to have better content than the PGA tour! Thorough editing job!

Great Music Great Swing Great Guy !

Truly a work of art both the swing and the editing complication. Everyone mentions the unique back swing and coil, but i think its the low and left throw release coupled with incredible turn that allowed him to be a great. Post impact actually looks alot like DJ or David Duval back in the day.

Always alot of fun to watch play

He is a legend! Grip it and rip it!

his head stays put. pretty amazing.

What a unreasonble swing just amazing

Favourite player to watch

Love me some John Daly, the guy is so underrated,a legend….

It's wild how flexible he is

Just a natural, organic golf swing. Talent

Best swing ever. Perfect

best swing and natural talent in golf history, crazy soft hands

Get well soon John.x

The release at the end of his swing is perfect.

Such a great right elbow position at impact

His hips turn forward before the club reaches the end of the backswing. Excellent!

John just happy Gilmores it every time , every thing he has exact same swing, it’s beautiful, he knows when it hits the ball its perfect, one in a million human , wow!

Best video ever

That’s a beautiful swing

Legend!

Such amazing flexibility and balance for a big guy. really good set of hands too to have that many levers and still get it square at impact. (check out the left elbow snap at release - it's nutty)

Seeing his swing in slo-mo makes sense to me now. His belly quickly jerks back. Then, he starts his swing. His belly follows the swing by mere milliseconds! The amount of force his belly adds is amazing! I bet his swing would suffer if he went on a diet.

His swing is awesome 😎 hall of famer

He is a beast💪

The swing of a majors winner.

So much torque it’s unreal

From what I observed keeping the right elbow tucked in on the downswing will help create big power

Man can put his gut into the ball

I'm a complete novice still learning to hit the club face centre when swinging, so I'm picking up on what I see from how I swing. I've noticed his stance allows him to keep completely balanced and rotate around by dropping his left knee. Once he's ready to rip it, he stamps his heel to create balance and the rotation is in motion. On top of allowing so much room to rotate, it's simply incredibly how his timing is from backswing to clubface... (timing of hip, back leg rotation, release). After breaking it down like that I can understand where the statement "grip it and rip it" came from. I could be very off, but based from what I've learned, this is an incredible masterclass nonetheless.

Insane backswing.

Flat take away. Across the line on the top of back swing. But perfect impact position. John Daly is doing what works for him instead of chasing "the perfect swing". I have so much respect for that. People think his swing is long, but for him it's normal. It's all about timing. If you made his swing shorter it would completely mess up his timing and it would actually make his swing less controllable for him. It's like Montgomery always says: "Take time to complete your swing". And John's swing is not completed until it reaches the final position. That's just how it is.

It's the iron shots that fascinate me

Iconic

Wow is awesome

5:50 look at that backswing point. Almost looks like he is inside - out! Amazing how much that swing uncoils.

its astonishing that he can square up with an extended swing. so many pros take a 3/4 swing to ensure they hit the ball square

That turn!

buddy said Daly played in local men's league...I ask "is he warming up on the range before playing?"....no "he's in the bar drinking"

I imagine his balls speed was in his prime like 124 to 127 he is my golf top 10 to watch all life long I started golfing 2years ago at 43 yrs old. the time I've spend with my kids driving the cart has been well worth the + 10 on 9 holes and +1's on par 4's. thanks for sharing this!!/

I didn't know how much I swing like him until I filmed myself swinging in slow motion and saw this video. It makes sense though since I'm also I bigger and stockier guy

THE GOAT!

I swing like this and I’m proud of it

Anyone knows what is the name of the music playing on this video?. It's really cool?.

lots of comments on swing of course,. But i just see a guy hitting the ball naturally, the way he wants and its pure!....2 majors makes him a legend as far as I'm concerned but the way he lived his life, contrary to what was expected makes him even more of a legend!......

Just when I thought it couldn't get any better..... John Daly's golf swing in slow motion..............

What a legend

Dude’s really got a wonderful huge range of motion swing.

Trying to add power to my softball swing I came here. I think I'm learning a lot.

john daly's swing always looked like raw talent and instinct to me and everybody's crazee bouta sharp dressed man!!!

He put on weight for distance, Bryson style, before it was cool

Sure the one at 4.15 may not be John 🤔..? Watching from GB , love JD and his swing , he looks to have hardly lost any turn even after all those years ? Golf needs more characters like him , best wishes in your fight John , “Grip it and rip it” 💪🏻👌🏻🏌🏻‍♂️

1:34 best golf swing I've ever seen 👌

Could sb compare and contrast Long John Daly's swing with that of smooth hittin Fred Couples. Watched them in that '99 ww shell golf but couldn't quite put my finger on it

"I play better when I drink" -John Daly

As hard as he hits it the balance is anazing.

The last shot in the video, that was JD putting it 10 yards past tigers drive, when tiger was in his prime :) Most fun driver to watch, his range of motion is 30% more than most golfers because of his swing mechanics. yet he somehow gets the club on relatively good plane.

I've been playing for a little over a year now and I still can't get rid of my overswing but I manage to close the clubface at impact and get good distance and hit it straight. I wonder if maybe some people just naturally have longer swings.

Every American should be as proud as John is to be an American 🇺🇸

Grip it and rip it, your the man

good

John Daley taught me how to golf juggle

despite the distraction of those pants, he still has a beautiful swing. so consistent no matter his weight

8:39 greatest moment in any sport ever,

man... I really do swing like Daly...

It takes so much coordination to swing so far back and still hit it so solid, his big secret is that his arms basically slow down and let the club whip trough , even Tiger said John had more raw talent than he ever had ..

I tried to play like this one day. I was hurting for two weeks.

Facinating to watch, in many ways. But don't confuse a flying right elbow and a folding left arm with flexibility or above average backswing turn.

how does he hit so square at those angles? I tried at the range and its not easy to get one good hit

โค้งลำตัวรับการตีสอดผ่านพลังไปยังลูก ดีมากแม้จะอ้วนก็ไม่เป็นอุปสรรค วงสวิงลงมาหาลูกชนิดที่ว่าไม่ลูกกระจุยก็วงกระจุย รุนแรงมาก. เยี่ยมครับท่านjohn daly 👍👍👍

wow

Best. Pose. Ever.

It takes an almost Zen dedication to a steady workout regimen of 12 ounce curls to attain such a svelte warrior physique...

he still holds a football field goal record as a kicker during his time in Jeff City, also where he picked up his smoking habit one summer in high school #Helias en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Daly_(golfer)
