The best golf influencers aren’t simply the accounts with the most followers. Instagram and YouTube both show videos to people based on how the video performs individually, not just based on who follows the creator. As a result, a small or mid-sized account can reach more people than one several times its size.
That’s why we rank golf influencers by median views of their videos (average number of people a typical video reaches). As of October 2026, the five most-watched are Bryson DeChambeau, Bob Does Sports, Grant Horvat, Bryan Bros Golf and Martin Borgmeier.

We analyzed the 296 posts these 26 creators published on Instagram and YouTube in the last 30 days. Of those, 37 beat their creator’s usual views by 3× or more.
Here are the hooks that are working, read from each post’s caption, title, or on-screen text.
“Golfing 50 States in 50 Days”
Most of this month’s breakouts carry a title or caption that names the video and nothing more. 21 of these 26 come from one channel, Good Good, whose daily road trip numbers each video by its day.
Good Good 1.7M views · 16.2× their usualViews fell as the trip went on, from 1.7M on day one to 387K on day 21, and every day still beat the channel’s usual. A sponsor of a series is seen in each episode: Mountain Dew paid for four episodes of the crew’s previous road trip.
“Legal swing or illegal?”
Two breakouts put a question to the viewer, one from Gabriella DeGasperis and one from a Good Good Short, so each supplies half.
Gabriella DeGasperis 1.3M views · 3.6× their usualBoth show one swing or one shot, and the caption asks the viewer to judge it. Grace Charis’s best Reel of the month asked the same kind of question (“What would you change about my swing?”) and reached 2.7 times the account’s usual.
“I played a TOUR EVENT in ST ANDREWS to climb The Official World Rankings! (Ep.3)”
Two breakouts named what was at stake before the first shot: Peter Finch playing a tour event for world-ranking points, and a Good Good Short that dares the crew. Each supplies half.
Peter Finch 522K views · 3.2× their usualAt the top of the list, stakes are the usual title. Bob Does Sports puts a match or a challenge in almost every video, so its videos land close to the channel’s own median, and none broke out this month.
Tania Tare: “Send it.” reached 5.5M views, 35.8× their usual.
Luke Hanlon: “This is the @oneclubninja 7-iron putting attachment” reached 2.4M views, 17.5× their usual.
Yosuke Kawamura: “I’ve posted a video for subscribers sharing some important tips.” reached 1.4M views, 11.7× their usual.
What the golf accounts on this list do at each size on Instagram and YouTube. Use it to judge whether a creator’s numbers are strong for their tier.
| Tier | Followers | Median views | Engagement | Posts a week | Sponsored posts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mid | Under 500K | 208K | 2.4% | 1.9 | 21% |
| Macro | 500K to 2M | 258K | 2% | 1.2 | 39% |
| Mega | Over 2M | 170K | 2.3% | 4.7 | 7% |
Medians across these 26 accounts, from each account’s recent videos. “Sponsored posts” is the share of posts in the 90 days to Oct 19, 2026 that carry a paid-partnership or paid-promotion label or a stated sponsor, or are part of a brand campaign.
If you sell clubs, balls, apparel or tee times, these checks separate a golf creator worth a brief from one who only looks right.
A full YouTube round shows a club or a ball over 18 holes, a coach’s Reel shows it fixing one fault, and a trick shot shows it once, fast. Match that to what your product has to prove, and leave out everyone who films the other two.
Golf creators often sign with a club or apparel maker and say so in the bio: “Titleist Athlete”, “@callawaygolf”, “@takomogolf clubs”. Some sell their own clubs or clothing. Ask about both before you pitch a driver or a polo.
Posting rhythms on this list run from about one long video a week to more than two a day, and one channel posted nothing in the last 30 days. A sponsored round takes days to film and edit, so agree on the publish date before you sign.
YouTube asks creators to tick a paid promotion box when a video carries a sponsor, which puts a label at the start. Bob Does Sports, Good Good and Rick Shiels all named sponsors in the last 90 days without the label. Ask for it in writing.
If your product makes a claim about the swing, use a coach whose credential you can check. In the US the PGA of America lists its coaches; the UK and Japan have their own PGAs.
We identified and ranked these creators by searching hundreds of thousands of top performing golf posts across Instagram and YouTube with Klint.
We rank by median views across each creator’s recent videos, so one viral post can’t lift an account up the list. Creators from any country qualify if they post in English or with no words and golf is the subject of at least half of their posts; tour players qualify when they film for the platform, not only at their events.

As of October 2026 the top five golf influencers by median views are Bryson DeChambeau, Bob Does Sports, Grant Horvat, Bryan Bros Golf and Martin Borgmeier.
Bryson DeChambeau gets the most views: 1.7M on a typical Instagram Reel. With 4.7M Instagram followers, Bryson DeChambeau is also the most followed creator here. Among YouTube channels, Rick Shiels has the most subscribers, 3.1M.
Instagram and YouTube. 15 creators are ranked on their Reels and 11 on their YouTube channels, whichever has the higher median. TikTok was measured too, and no creator here does better there. Rick Shiels, for one, has 544K TikTok followers and a typical TikTok of 18.2K views.
Start with the golfers who already play your clubs, wear your clothes or post from your course: search your brand tag and your course on Instagram and YouTube, and note who posts often. Klint runs that search across platforms from one sentence, such as “golf creators in Arizona who review drivers”.
It depends on what you buy: a sponsor segment in a full YouTube round, a single Reel, and a season as a staff player for a club maker are three different deals. Club and apparel brands often sign creators for a season, which is why so many bios name one.
Yes. Any creator can ask to be taken off Klint’s lists, and the request applies to every page they would otherwise appear on.
