To calculate which golf shot is the most viewed on YouTube, we researched and recorded the number of YouTube views of over 45 famous golf shots. We then ranked these from highest to lowest views to reveal the top 30 most watched golf shots of all time. To calculate how much each video earns on YouTube, we used the Influencer Marketing Hub YouTube Money Calculator, which calculates the earnings of different YouTube videos based on their total number of views.
