Overview

A creator approaches a random golfer named Hackett on a driving range and asks him how far he hits his driver. After Hackett claims 300 yards, the creator challenges him to hit a drive 300 yards or more in the air to win a brand new golf bag. Hackett accepts the challenge and, on his first attempt, hits the ball a surprising 347 yards, easily winning the prize. After a second impressive shot, the creators award him the bag and conclude with a promotional call-to-action for the bag, including a discount code.
