DOD KING

DOD King, whose real name is Carter Smith, is an American golf content creator and social media personality best known for his signature "Driver Off the Deck" style of play. Originally from Norfolk, Virginia, Smith played collegiate golf at Palm Beach Atlantic University, the same program that produced creator Grant Horvat, before building a large following online through his unconventional approach to the game. His videos center on hitting driver straight off the fairway, often in situations where most players would reach for a fairway wood or iron, turning a difficult shot into a trademark. That blend of real skill and showmanship has made his clips widely shared across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. Smith also appears in creator matches and collaborations, where fans tune in to see whether the deck-driver holds up under competitive pressure.
