There were 100's of players on the tees, greens, and the fairways. Hundreds of the spectators were watching the match from rough areas and jogging tracks. In short, The Desert Rose Golf Course was full of the people. He was not in his prime., at the age of 64, he was playing in the senior category. Soon he got the attraction of the audience after hitting some long drives of more than 350 yards. Along with his flight member, Chandler Harper, he reached at hole number 14, a 445 yards par 4. There was a tailwind blowing through the tee to green. He went on the tee and hit a shot of 515 yards, crossing the green and stopped near the next tee, hundred of the spectators witnessed this event and it became the part of golf history, the longest drive amazingly by an old man of 64 years old. He was Michael Hoke Austin, also known as Mike Austin, the world record holder. He left no doubt to cement his legacy in golf.

Mike Austin, a Ph.D. in Kinesiology, was well aware of how the body moves during a golf swing. He learned the art of body movement and applied it on the golf swing. By implementing Kinesiology, he extracted the best follow through to hit the longest drive. As compared to modern days, that was stone-age of golf, and an old man of 64 settled a record which looks unbreakable. Gary Woodland and Dustin Johnson are the two longest hitters of these days, Gary's longest drive is 450 yards while Dustin rolled his balls over the 463 yards, not close to Mike Austin.

Mike was a multitalented person, a golf coach, a boxing coach, tennis, and baseball coach and a film actor. He taught students how bones move while golf swings take place, he implemented this, wearing a skeleton costume, while coaching. Millions of golfers are practicing the swing he invented. There are thousands of instructors coaching this swing. Still, It is part of the modern swing and stance of the golf. Decades ago, Mike Austin defined the basics of the golf swing one can see on PGA golf tours.

Description of Mike Austin's swing is :

1 ) Open the backswing wide opened.

2 ) During the backswing, shift all of your weight on the back foot by lifting front-foot a little bit.

3 ) Bring back your swing on the same path of the backswing,

4 ) Hit it the ball and shift all of your weight on the front foot.

The bottom line is whip with a rhythm. What Mike Austin defined, Dustin Johnson is hundred percent copying, and this is why he is the longest hitter of the ball of this era, many a time he has crossed the milestone of 400 yards with his driver. Rory Mcllroy is also using the same trick except for speed. Rory's swing speed can be as the fastest among the current players. John Daly, the longest hitter of his time also used the swing of Mike and enlisted himself in history. John, known as Long John was the longest hitter from 1991 to 2003. Mikes 515 yards shot was not a fluke as during demonstration and coaching he used to hit almost every ball more than 400 yards.
