How about we increase your Swing Speed by 10+ MPH??
Improving your swing speed is definitely the NEXT LEVEL golfers work on to drastically reduce their handicap
Hey there, early birds and night owls!
Ever wonder if your golf swing has more in common with a sledgehammer than a symphony? đśâł
Weâve got some insider moves today thatâll morph your swing from heavy metal to smooth jazz in just a quarter of an hour.
Plus, we're diving into the ever-surprising world of indoor golf - is it just a fad or here to stay? And if youâre itching for a new driver, stick around for our âFairway Findsâ. Remember, in golf as in life, it's the follow-through that makes the difference. đ
So, loosen up those wrists, and let's swing right into the good stuff!
Trivia Question: Who holds the record for the lowest score at Masters Weekend? (Hint: It was set in 2020) Answer Below.

Increasing Club Swing in 15 Minutes
Most of todayâs tip comes from Long Drive Competitor Seb Twaddell and Rypstick founder Dr. Luke Benoitâs session with Golf Science Lab.
(Out of all the posts I read and videos I watched on the topic they seriously knocked it out of the park)
And before we get into it itâs important I ask you this questionâŚ
Do you ACTUALLY know what your Club Swing Speed is??
These tips will be a lot more applicable to you once you know not only:
đ How fast your swing is now
AND ALSOâŚ
đ What you Swing Speed GOAL is
Work on Hip Flexibility.The least flexible part of most adults is their hips. Which is tragic because thatâs one of the most important part of a PGA level golf swing. Before you step up to the greens then be sure to work on them either in the gym or at least while stretching
Go for a fuller swing. When youâre working on your form, you obviously reduce the size of your swing but to increase your actual speed and nail your driver an extra 20-50 yards youâll need as much momentum behind that ball as possible.
Increase the speed of your backswing. If youâre actually flexible, this is where your advantage really comes in. Going faster on your backswing in a controlled way allows you to treat your hips and back muscles like an elastic band as your wind them back and get ready to rip. (Warning: Doing this will IMMEDIATELY let you know just how inflexible you are đ)
Keep your wrists relaxed. One of the biggest things people forget when theyâre swinging their clubs is that your forearms are a very useful tool. If you really want to stay at the 100 mph+ club head speed, utilizing that extra muscle is one of the only ways to do it.
Try 5 rapid breaths and hold the last one out.This will definitely be the most awkward one to try out and get used to but itâs a well known fact that breathwork drastically improves focus. So the next time you step up to the driving range for practice, see how changing up breathing on your approach helps to prime your body.
Longer and more flexible shafts for your driver. Now Iâm not going to say that the âonly thing keeping you from being better is a new clubââŚHOWEVER, the data does show that just increasing your club length 2-3 inches can equate up to an 8 mph increase in club swing.

Indoor Golfing STILL on the rise??
Itâs obvious Indoor Golfing had a meteoric rise in the past with that pesky virus that forced everyone inside a couple years agoâŚ
Whatâs taken everyone by surprise though is how Indoor Golfing is STILL getting more and more popular.
The reasons for why are still up for debate.
Some say itâs because people are more aware of them today.
Others say it might have to do with last weekâs story on Tigerâs Football field sized Indoor Golfing simulator.
Personally though, I think it has to do with how building an indoor simulator can be less expensive than going out to the greens sometimes đ
I mean just look at this guy đ
While he mightâve dropped $20,000 to put that simulator in his basementâŚ
He doesnât need to buy another sleeve of Pro V1s at the golf shop before he goes back again.
And thatâs what I call working smarter not harder.
But creating your own simulator isnât the only thing on the rise.
Weâre seeing a TON of golf simulator businesses pop up where you show up to the warehouse and play a couple rounds at the simulators they have set up for you.
Itâs starting to become something like TopGolf 2.0
(Though Iâm sure TopGolf isnât far away from putting a few of these at their facilities either).
But hereâs where the rubber meets the roadâŚ
Obviously thereâs no replacing the experience of playing a round of 18 with friends.
BUT,
Would you still rather meet up for a driving range session over a golf simulator?
