Increasing your club head speed will add length to all of your clubs, the examine is how do you accomplish that goal. Swinging harder or faster would seem to be the logical way, but is it?
Golf Club Left Handed Sets
The reality is that trying to swing harder or faster will normally corollary in unwanted swing changes that may corollary in your arms getting to active in the swing, which may lead to a tilt to the left causing your swing path to "go over the top". With all of these possibilities it makes sense to find other ways to accomplish your goal
Increasing whole golf swing speed or hitting the ball harder will not necessarily corollary in increased club head speed or increased length unless you already have a very efficient, well balanced and executed swing. In order to gain length you need to eliminate the "speed leaks" in your swing and increase your club head speed.
What are the "speed leaks" in your swing? Some of the usual suspects are;
Any swing fault that results in a severe offline ball flight, slice, hook, very high or very low. Trying to power the forward swing with the arms, rather than the rotation of your lower body. Not creating "lag" and/or releasing it to early.
As an example, when I ultimately eliminated my slice, one of the side benefits was that all of my club distances increased just by virtue of hitting the ball with a more quadrate club face. Without having to worry about where the ball was going, my whole swing got better, club head speed increased slightly, balance improved, swing path was better.
I remember commenting to one of my playing partners that the added length made it a whole new game, I was having more fun and authentically had to think more about how to hit greens in regulation.
The median tour player has a club head speed of colse to 115 to 120 Mph, some of the long drive competitors can get their's up to 140 and higher. The median amateur recreational golfer manages 85 to 90mph.
For every 1 mph increase in club head speed, the median increase in length is 1.4 yards. If you could increase your's to an median of 90 mph to 100 mph that would be 14 more yards on average. How would 14 more yards change your game?
The good news is that increasing your club head speed from 90 mph to 100 mph is not that difficult. You need to recognize your "speed leaks" and work on eliminating them.
There are many parts of the modern golf swing that contribute to club head speed and the increased length that results from an increase. Among them are;
Swing path. Swing plane and how well you profess it. The whole of lag you originate and deliver to impact. How well you are able to quadrate the club face.
Have you ever wondered how the tour pro's hit what seem to be effortless drives that trip 300 plus yards? It is because they have all of the basic fundamentals of the swing down cold.
They make sure their grip, stance, alignment, ball position, etc. Are perfect before they ever start the swing...every time. They recount and visualize the shot they want to make, to the area that will give them the best chance of success on the next shot. Then they make a balanced productive swing.
Your best path to more club head speed and the resulting greater distance, would be to find and work with a Pga teaching pro to recognize the speed leaks in your swing and work specifically on enhancing th fundamentals of a sound swing.
Does expanding Golf Swing Speed Also growth Club Head Speed?
