Mike Austin: Super Rare Lecture and Demonstration of the Golf Swing

I recently discovered a video I’m betting most Austin fans have never seen.

This was filmed in 1997, when Mike was reportedly 87 years old. Mike had suffered a stroke in 1989 but yet you can still see his fighting spirit.

Mike was extremely knowledgeable about the joints, muscles, and nerves involved in making a golf swing.

Mike is most famous for hitting a 515 yard drive in the 1974 National Senior Open in Las Vegas, the longest drive ever recorded in a round of competitive golf.
