Bubba trades his golf ball for a pineapple on Tonight Show with Jay Leno

October 15, 2012 | by AmateurGolf.com Staff

Bubba Watson hits a golf ball pretty well but what about fruits, vegetables and desserts?

We've seen Bubba bend it around the trees and out of the woods in his memorable Masters playoff win over Louis Oosthuizen. We've seen Bubba hit the ball in excess of 420 yards. Now, we've seen Bubba smash a bunch of fruit and desserts on national television. Serving as a guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last week, Bubba used his infamous pink Ping driver --- with a Grafalloy BiMatrx Tour Prototype shaft, of course --- to pummel a green pepper, pineapple and pumpkin pie. Watson, who had previously recorded his own stunt video smashing a watermelon in honor of comedian Gallagher's unique style, was no doubt happy to oblige Leno's requests. See Bubba's performance in the video above.
