Golf influencer Karin Hart decided to use Hurricane Milton's passage through Florida to check off her bucket list: playing golf in a storm of such magnitude. Hart posted a video of the moment on her Instagram profile, which has more than 218,000 followers.

The post shows the golf influencer teeing off from her backyard, wearing a red and green printed swimsuit. Karin Hart accompanied her post with the following text:

"Looks like I can check 'playing golf in a hurricane' off my bucket list… A moment of fun in the midst of staying safe & praying everyone being affected by #HurricaneMilton. Once this passes I will be helping relief efforts with my crew @anchorsnonprofit."

The video clearly shows that the weather conditions were far from ideal for playing golf. The footage shows the golf influencer struggling to place the ball on the tee and the club slipping out of her hands in the rain and gusts of wind.

In addition to the 218,000 fans who follow her on Instagram, golf influencer Karin Hart has more than 70,500 followers on X (formerly Twitter), and more than 48,000 followers on TikTok. Another 16,700 follow her on her official YouTube channel.

Hart also posts fashion images and some segments from her personal life in addition to golf-related content.

Hurricane Milton struck the state of Florida on Wednesday, October 9, with winds in excess of 120 MPH. It left extensive damage in its path, including several golf courses.
