Golfer stereotypes assigned by the driver brand you usefrom @shaneohgolfs

[01]

Overview

The creator presents a rapid-fire listicle, humorously stereotyping golfers based on the specific brand of driver they use. For each driver model shown on screen (including PXG, Ping, TaylorMade, Cobra, Titleist, and Srixon), he delivers a quick, judgmental profile of the owner and assigns them a specific, often high, golf handicap.

Narrative framework

The structural pattern this video runs on

Framework

The Identity Roast

This framework judges individuals based on a specific consumer choice they make, assigning a humorous stereotype and a quantifiable 'score' to each choice. It creates engagement by tapping into the viewer's sense of identity and their desire to see themselves (and others) categorized and judged.

  1. 1

    The Extreme Negative Stereotype

    Sets a humorous, judgmental tone by targeting the most obvious or clichéd negative example to establish the video's premise.

  2. 2

    The Compensator

    Analyzes a choice made specifically to cover up a common user flaw or weakness.

  3. 3

    The Status Seeker

    Roasts users who choose an item for its perceived status or high price tag rather than its practical utility.

  4. 4

    The Niche Specialist

    Identifies a user who prioritizes one specific feature or benefit above all else, ignoring a more balanced approach.

  5. 5

    The Brand Follower

    Critiques the user who chooses based on brand loyalty alone, often to their detriment.

  6. 6

    The Savvy Expert

    Breaks the pattern of negative judgments by validating an unconventional or older choice as the mark of a true connoisseur, which builds credibility and surprises the audience.

  7. 7

    The Obligatory Matcher

    Identifies a user whose choice is driven by a desire for aesthetic consistency with other related items.

    What driver you use says about YOU

Transcript

What driver you use says about you. Your friends are embarrassed for you because your handicap is so high. 24,000 handicap. You slice every single drive, but somehow, someway, the g four thirty keeps every ball in place. 17.4 handicap. Why? Somebody tell me why you went out and spent $700 on the TaylorMade q I 35 designer series driver. You bought this because you wanted to be seen and you have a ton of money. 24.1 handicap. Tier Aerojet, you did your research and you saw that this driver performs very well for distance. You don't care about control, spin, anything else. You bought this solely to hit the ball far. And sometimes that worse. 18.9 handicap. Tier two, GT three, GT tier. You bought this solely because it says Titleist, and now you have a front row seat to hitting balls out of the woods. 11.6 handicap. SIM two Max, you're actually a pretty good golfer. 4.4 handicap. Please go upgrade. Any Swixxon driver. You bought this because you wanted it to match your irons. Not saying that it's bad, but nobody just goes to the store looking for a Srixon driver. Srixon has some of the best irons in the game. They've got great golf balls, but their drivers, 15.4 handicap.
