How to Increase Your Clubhead Speed with Proper Timing - Loading - Arms -Body - Club Sequencing!

Hey golfers, I want to show you how you can increase your distance by smoothing out your swing maybe even slowing it down a little bit but what am I referring to so we're going to take a look at this golfer now produces a lot of club head speed has 117 mile an hour swing this is the one on here on the left and we'll make these just a touch bigger and then his goal is to get to a ball speed of 190 and so we're going to focus in on you know is there some technique that he can work on to start getting more higher club head speed one thing we did find out through this is he definitely needs some different equipment in order to do that but so let's look at how we can maximize club head speed we end up using this is our gas system with the axial force plates on them and this is going to give you a pretty good indicator of how to time up weight shift in order to create more speed so harder and faster is not always the best thing to do so let's take a look into this and we'll just let this swing here on the left just kind of play he peaks out at 363 and a half pounds of force impulse which you can think of as momentum peaks that out let's see I got one 155 175 two something okay 209 he peaks out at at impulse and that's like the momentum in the system and throughout the whole system through impact we're he's putting in you know close to 200 pounds per second of force and our momentum into the into the system so let's take a look at his peak and when he times it up and this is really the big indicator of what we were working on and he does have a slightly strong grip so I want to do bring him to impact a little bit and pull that back he does have a tendency to kind of shaft lean the driver a little bit because this the stronger grip doesn't want that club face flipping over but let's take a look at a couple things on what he does what we changed in his swing from a timing standpoint and we kept the swing long so let's go ahead and jump right into it so we'll get him up to the top and I kind of like when I see this weight shift this uh red arrow here that's the cumulative amount of force when I see that kind of moving forward I know that there's the start of the downswing and so we're right right there's it pretty much at the top and let's bring up this swing we'll let this one play through and we'll see if you kind of notice a couple of the different changes two major changes that we made in his motion and so we'll get him situated up at the top I think that's pretty good right about there yeah that hasn't quite shifted forward yet you can just see that starts tilting so he's there at the top so you can see pretty much there's a little bit different position okay but we got to be careful don't relate it to the cameras because his foot position went back on this so you can't relate it to anything on the floor just kind of you have to look at at him two different feet positions so it wasn't a research study we weren't worried about doing that sort of thing and so let's take a look at a couple things that we see and you know both of them load up pretty well let's see if there's any difference between where that for him that left foot's loading up versus what we see here do see that weight shift definitely I want to pull this into it you can see his weight really doesn't load into his left side like he's doing now so that's one change that we made so I don't know if you saw that or not you can see he's really got more mass and more force going into the system loading up so that he can actually put that into the swing so this is one change that we made we got him to load up a little bit more and now let's take a look at the next thing is let's well let's take a look at his peak force here we're going to talk about that we're at 393 so we got definitely more impulse maxes out near impact yeah it's over 200 so peak impulse happens through that so we definitely got more force of him going down and putting more force into the club so let's take a look at and compare this so first thing I want to do is well not the first thing second thing so the first thing we saw what when you want more distance load up better the more mass and then momentum forward into the swing we can put that that energy back into the club back into the ball to hit the ball further so first thing load up more okay now the next thing is and this is probably the biggest difference that when he was trying to create more club head speed and swing faster there was this intent of just moving faster let's go get it let's just jump on it and this is what we definitely did change and I want to what I want you to do is look at the timing of where the club is relative to his downswing so he had a lot of body motion in there and working really hard but wasn't getting the distance of the speed that he was looking for now again 117 is quite very impressive but he wanted more so what could we do to do to do that you know in this and in this lesson we increased it four miles an hour from 117 to 121 and let's let's oops get him back jump over to this one and now let's take a look at when the timing peaks out and where the club is okay so this is the big indicator if we take a look at these two pictures where the golf club is uh in transition how early he is to apply that force now he kind of wastes that momentum into the swing that now from this point it's it's it's let it's that momentum just gets spent going through and then he kind of tries to chase it with his arms afterwards and that's where the shaffling comes in because he gets his body going the arms are dragging down then he tries to get him speed up all the shaffling so when we talk about increasing club head speed we want to increase the club movement well the arms are the ones going to be doing that so you can see much further down in the downswing in order for him to peak out now that momentum is is stored there so this way he can now deliver that club into the ball and bring this one swing back ever so slightly you can see okay his hands relative to his feet and some of it you know he's pretty much you know from right to left on the camera pretty pretty good not not a whole lot of difference just forward and back on the plates that's the big difference he got the club head to release he wasn't holding that angle anymore so again that gave him more speed if we see that angle being held in that trail wrist is being that's energy lost this release from extension towards flexion is club head speed so got him to feel more of that got that left side to really really release and get through the shot and that's where the four miles an hour came from so it was more of a load up more of that wrist release getting the club head to arms to create speed to put it into the club head and then the body so we didn't he wasn't jumping from the top so this idea of trying to get the faster the body faster the arms that's not always the case now for some golfers it may be for this individual golfer we actually had to slow the body down and let that momentum get closer to the golf ball instead of that quick jerky movement in transition which kind of threw things off which is that's the whole sequence acceleration sequence not a kinematic sequence but the abcs of the golf swing that i've been been promoting so these are two things that you can take away one load up get the club moving faster those are the biggest things then get through the shot so with this uh we got him up four miles an hour and then we're going to keep working that um that that speed and we'll do some speed training get some different equipment in here so you can go ahead and continue that force so uh he did a great job but you can see this timing pattern of when to create your max force is very important to hit the ball solid in this shot for 121 that was pretty nice uh pretty much a little baby fade on it was awesome so definitely something you want to put in the bag so thanks for watching stay tuned for more videos of the abcs of the golf swing talk to y'all later
