One of golf's biggest YouTube channels is under fire over claims one of its ads glorified violence against women

Garrett Clark, one of the cofounders of Good Good, featured prominently in the promotional video.

Mike Mulholland/Getty Images Golf media brand Good Good Golf faced backlash over an ad that some said glorified violence against women.

Good Good and Callaway both apologized for the video, which was deleted soon after its publication.

Good Good Golf, one of the biggest golf YouTube channels and new media brands, is facing backlash after claims that an ad it released glorified violence against women.

Last week, Good Good, a collective of social media creators and golfers, launched a collaboration with the golf equipment giant Callaway featuring a limited-edition driver and balls branded with Good Good's logo.

He then stands over her and says, "Do not touch my new driver," before picking it up himself and hitting a shot.
