Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster Catches Golf Tee Shot

OB32 June 22, 2012

Throughout the ages it has been known that when a bunch of Dudes get together on a golf course, there are bound to be some “trick” shots here and there.  Most of the time someone gets hurt and 7-10 balls get lost in the woods, but these two guys take it to a whole new level.  Yesterday, Formula 1 racer David Coulthard and professional golfer Jake Shepherd set a world record when Coulthard caught Shepherd’s 178mph 300 yard tee shot in the 6.2-liter V-8, 563 horsepower Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster.

Food for thought:  How did that idea come about?  Comment on this post to give us your ideas.

I see a few Dudes drinking on a patio on golf course.  One comments to the other on his nice tee shot on #7.  The driver of the group proposes, “I bet I could catch that ball with my new ride…”  The rest is history.  Weak, I know…so come up with something better and comment it.

Dude 3, OUT!
