The Iron Golfer: Speed Golf
We’ve recently teamed up with Luke ‘The Iron Golfer’ from Square Banana is a golf adventurer and a PGA pro.
Luke always looks for challenges and teaming these up with his passion for golf to bring adventures and push himself.
Since starting Square Banana Luke has undertaken many challenges including combining golf with a triathlon, the three peaks and speed, which is where his latest challenge came from.
On the 5th April I attempted to break the all time speedgolf low score world record at Woking Golf Club. The journey started 3 months ago when I decided to take on this audacious challenge. The challenge I hear you ask??? Play 18 holes in around 34 minutes and shoot 73 for a speedgolf score of 107 which would be a new record. In the end after a action thriller that included 3 birdies 13 of 14 fairways hit I flew round in 41 minutes and shot 80 for 121. Due to the feel good vibe of the attempt and the closeness I will give it one more go at Woking and a week later a final attempt for this summer at the British Speedgolf Champs making for a tantalising July!
Here’s some more pictures from the day
