Tip For Your Golf Swing To Increase Your Distance

Throughout the round of golf once your game is not good have you ever heard this before "you are swinging too fast you need to slow down". I know even today I hear this and it is usually given by a player whose game is worse than mine. I'm not sure about you but I have a tough time taking unsolicited advice from a player with a much lower skill level than myself.

Just about every golfer must never listen to that piece of advice about slowing down. Many of them swing the club too slow already. Today we will look at how to speed up your club head speed.

Execute this easy golf swing drill in order to enhance your club head spead. First turn a golf club upside down. Grip the club just below the club head. Swing the club and at the bottom of the forward swing, where the ball sits at address, you should hear a whooshing sound. The whooshing sound is an indicator for the amount of speed you have generated. The louder the whoosh the faster the club head is traveling. You need to commence slowly and then enhance the speed and swing to where the whoosh is the loudest and you have to the ability to still stay in balance.

Where you hear the whoosh in your swing is extremely telling. The whoosh must be the loudest since the club is going through the impact area. For a lot of golfers this is not the case. They will hear the whoosh loudest before the handle gets to impact. What does this tell us? This means that you have released the club too soon and the club is beginning to decelerate as it approaches impact. Resulting in a loss of power.

Try and picture a child on a swing in a playground. The kid swings in a pendulum movement beginning with a small to and from movement and eventually swinging higher and faster. Where is the child moving the fastest? At the top? Halfway down? Or at the bottom? At the bottom of course. Even if they rely on gravity alone the fastest part of the swing is at the bottom.

The benefit of this exercise in order to enhance your club head speed. Speed is one of the five "laws" that determine your ball flight. Increase your speed and you can increase your distance.
