Justin Thomas Insane 253 Yard Drive with a Mini-Golf Putter

Justin Thomas is long off the tee, like crazy long.  In fact, pound-for-pound he’s one of the longest golfers on the planet.

So recently Golf Digest decided to put JT’s skills to the test by calculating his smash factor using everything from a plastic baseball bat to a shovel.

But the real star of the show was Thomas’ 253 yard drive with a mini-golf putter.  Yes, you heard that correctly.

Don’t believe us?  Take a look for yourself:

Justin Thomas Crushes a 250 Yard Drive With a Mini Golf Putter | Smash Factor | Golf Digest

Justin Thomas is one of the longest golfers on the planet because he has an insane smash factor, which is ball speed divided by club speed. In other words, Thomas swings crazy fast and has amazing hand-eye coordination. Thomas’s peak smash factor is on par with Dustin Johnson.

We’re not sure whether to be impressed or embarrassed by the fact that JT is putting out a higher swing speed with a mini-golf putter than we can manage with our 43″ driver.

Keep smashing ’em Justin!
