Video: The King Meets The Drones

March 21, 2015/ Geoff Shackelford

It sounds like something from P.G. Wodehouse's typewriter but in reality let's hope the tide has turned and drone footage becomes an integral part of golf coverage starting...this weekend at Bay Hill.

Now that the FAA has approved drones in some commercial capacities, Golf Channel/NBC has rolled out this teaser clip of footage from Bay Hill. The fun moment though comes late with The King, Arnold Palmer, standing on 18 green watching the drone in action.
