I need to generate more speed at impact

By Top 25 Coach Keith Williams

Ultimately the hands deliver the club to the ball, but a series of related movements help create optimal hand speed – it’s termed the ‘release’ of the club. To help feel the speed and influence of the hand action, take hold of the clubhead end and swing the grip end. You want to create the loudest ‘swish’ at the point in the swing nearest the ground. The aim is to coordinate your weight shift and get the body turning towards the target with a well-timed release. Try and replicate the same feeling with the club back to normal and a ball in front of you.
