Increasing Your Golf Swing Clubhead Speed Isn't Everything
from: Mike Pedersen, CPT"I want to increase my golf swing clubhead speed!" I hear this
one all the time from the members of my golf-trainer.com site
and golfers sending me emails. I want to be a 'straight' shooter
(pardon the pun) right now. Increasing your golf swing clubhead
speed is not everything!
You heard that correctly.
You can swing at 140 mph and it won't mean anything unless your
golf swing sequence and moment of impact is solid. There are
lots of 300 yards in the woods! I have to chuckle when I see the
Speed Stik commercials with Vijay.
Swinging that thing harder and harder isn't going to make your
ball go straight...and if I'm correct, the goal is to get it in
the fairway, right?
The point I'm trying to get at is a more powerful, controlled,
sequenced swing that does produce a higher clubhead speed, yet
in control swing. One that has a consistent swing path and
solidness of hit on the clubface.
So how do you achieve this?
The only way is to improve your golf-specific strength and
flexibility!
If you've read any of my 300 plus articles, you'll know I come
back to this time-and-time again. It's your BODY that limits
your golfing ability.
Now picture this!
You do some simple, 'in-home" golf exercises and go to the
course. You step up to the tee and rip one farther than you have
in years and it stays in play.
Doesn't that sound more like it?
There is a balance between a higher clubhead swing speed,
control and sequence of motion that gets you back to impact
hitting the ball in the center of your clubface. Swinging hard
just to swing hard won't accomplish your goals of
longer/straighter drives.
I receive emails from members, customers of my golf fitness dvds
and manual who tell me who much more stable their swing has
become doing my simple golf exercises, and how they are hitting
it 20-30 yards further...consistently.
So don't get me wrong!
I'm all about improving your golf swing clubhead speed...but
with a stable swing...not one that is out of control and
balance. I'm very proud when I receive these emails and know
I've made yet another golfer a believer in golf training.
So next time you see Vijay's commercial for the Speed Stik,
don't run out and buy it with the intension your going to see
that number go up-and-up. Buy it with the intension that your
swing will be stronger, stabler and in better sequence.
Then and only then will increasing your golf swing clubhead
speed be a factor.
