If you are wondering how to build your speed and power in a golf swing, the solution does not necessarily lie in the gym and building more muscle.
That is something you need to do if your swing is not mechanically-correct and you would rather go that route instead of simply improving your technique.
I shot a quick video clip of the right-dominant swing action I’ve been working on for the last while, and I can’t believe how much more compact it is than what I used to consider my best action.
As you’ll see and hear, this adjustment for me has dramatically increased my speed and power as I use the SwingRite stick for feedback, and today was the first day swinging after having determined what I was doing to get to the speed setting I’m on right now.
I may be close to the end of my golf swing blogging, but I do have a few more things floating around the old noggin that I might not have shared yet… like “cracking the whip…”
One of the cool things about having a mechanically-sound swing is that you can recognize the traits of power-generation in other moves and swingers.
This is something I keep seeing in instructional videos on TV.
Why are you throwing the club at the target? Is the ball anywhere near that release point?
NO, it’s NOT…
