Going back to your journey in retrospect. What would you focus on most to start? Strength training, speed training, release and technique or equal focus on all?I’m not sure that it’s a byproduct of speed training but I’ve also managed to be hitting driver with a much tighter dispersion pattern now too. No longer do I have the sprayed right miss.
I think that has a lot to do with the speed training teaching me good release habits as well. It you don’t release properly with the speedsticks it’s very easy to tell. Not releasing properly kills a lot of speed, and can lead to hooks if too fast or pushes if too slow.
Great question. My journey has been a bit of a long and winding one. I started 2 years ago with strength training, and while I think it is important and I continue to do work in the gym 3-4x a week, it was the actual speed training that did the most for me to unlock all of those gains I had in the gym and put them into the correct sequence to deliver speed.Going back to your journey in retrospect.

Those sticks look to closely resemble the SS product so the exercises should translate very well.So I have an HH golf swing speed trainer with removable weights and a prgr. Can someone recommend a good program to follow. I want to try and groove a more mechanically efficient swing as well.
Thanks for the response. Right now I think my biggest thing to work on is sequence and release mechanics. Followed by improving core strength and muscle balancing.Great question.

The better release and technique (learning ground force) was a direct result of doing speed training.
To answer I'd say speed training is what I would focus on most if I wanted immediate gains. You could then supplement those gains by getting stronger in the gym and learning better release mechanics.
For me I found that doing speed training actually helped my sequence and release. I talked about that a little earlier in the thread I think. Previous to speed training I worked exclusively on swing mechanics in a conference room for 2 years. That thread is here if curious.Thanks for the response.

Way to go Post. Was wondering all your thoughts on this video ?
For me, bringing arms in makes sense. But wouldn’t that make people get steeper in transition. And feel cramped up… versus maybe reaching for some would help them not be stuck.
"Being tall" over the ball is one of my swingthoughts. It sometimes leads to shanks when my swing flaw of starting with my shoulders creeps out but it's a good reminder to knock that crap out.The adjustment you should make is to have less bend at the hips at setup and throughout the swing.

I saw it and thought it would be relevant in this thread. But what I was taught. Getting the body to move correctly allows the arms and hands to do this on their own. The better the body moves. The more the club will realign at good angles at impact. But I also thought this might be a good addition to do while doing body movements.Funny - that same video just showed up for me while I was surfing You Tube yesterday!
Yes and no. If your setup is proper with the arms hanging straight down from a bent knee, proper spine angle from hinging the hips, proper weight distribution, and balanced position, where the hands are about one fist length from your thigh position at address, some of the movements might happen correctly on their own.I saw it and thought it would be relevant in this thread.

I get the part in video where the arms are away from the body because people are told to swing out to the right for more of an in to out swing path.Yes and no.

Second, this also requires proper swing sequencing and technique. For example, if you snatch the club back to the inside, all bets are off. Third, if you restrict your backswing by not allowing your trail elbow to become disconnected from the side of the body then you don't need to reconnect it on the downswing. But if you allow your elbow to move away from the side of your body at the top of your backswing (as most great golfers do) then you must reconnect it on the way back down or your hands will swing further out on the way back to the ball.
I did my first session at level 1. I think it's waking up the body a bit after a long winter so probably a benefit already.Create a free account here. Those sticks look to closely resemble the SS product so the exercises should translate very well.

You might be getting out of positions and end up cancelling out some speed with a long back swing.This sounds counterintuitive, but the shorter my backswing is, the faster my club head speed is.
