<p><span id="more-7280"></span>The first chance I had to get on a golf course and give the Happy Gilmore drive a go I did, and its definitely was one day in my life I will never forget.  Approaching the ball, I swung with all my mite, embarrassing myself by hitting the ball no further then the womens tee along with blowing out my right shoulder because of the unconventional swing.  I was sidelined for a month and a half with a separated shoulder and to this day I still feel the pain.</p>
<p><a title="Padraig Harrington adds 30 yards with the Happy Gilmore swing" href="http://sports.yahoo.com/golf/blog/devil_ball_golf/post/Padraig-Harrington-has-a-go-at-the-Happy-Gilmore?urn=golf,159519" target="_blank">13 years later the people at Sport Science</a> decided to test out the Happy Gilmore swing and recruited PGA Pro <strong>Padraig Harrington</strong>.  So what were the results????  Lets just say his form on the drive was identical to his standstill drive but using the Happy Gilmore swing he added a whopping 30 plus yards.</p>
<p>So will Padraig use this swing on the golf course?  He says never! because of the consistency and accuracy that doesn&#8217;t comes with the Happy Gilmore swing.  But he does recommend an average golfer giving it shot because they got nothing to lose except the ball.</p>
