Alex, it is late on a Saturday night. I am a 74 year old male who has some back issues and struggles to get swing speeds with my nine iron above 65mph. This afternoon I was talking to my friend, a PGA Master Professional, about my lack of swing speed. He knows my swing very well and told me, again, I was losing leverage during the down swing, mostly in my wrist set. He told me before about flaring out my back toe which didn't help that much. I watched your presentation here and heard the technique of pulling the back leg back a little to give oneself more clearance. I jumped up and went to my little "indoor range", set up my swing radar and started practicing the swing with those adjustments. The very first thing I noticed was a definite improvement in the the swoosh sound being more in front of the ball and much more distinctive. After about 10 practice swings I turned on the radar. Swing speed jumped 10-15 mph with about 20% less effort(it got to 83 twice)! That made me very happy. Of course it didn't happen on every swing but the more I practiced the technique the more often it happened. Now, I have to take it to an outdoor range and see what the real results are, but I am very optimistic I will like the new yardage and hope it will carryover to my other clubs. Thank you. And, yes, I will mention the back foot back factor to my pro.

A follow up report. I went to the range today eager to put the technique to a real test with full swings and real golf balls and real flight patterns. I am happy to report there was an improvement however inconsistent...it is new you know. I still had a tendency to hold on to the club through the impact zone resulting in pushes. I don't feel like I am releasing the club as well as I did last night at the indoor range with electronic numbers. I will say, happily, when I did strike the ball properly, I was one to one and half clubs longer. So, there is hope. The trick is practicing. The old saying "Practice makes perfect" is a lie. Practice makes permanent...perfect practice makes perfect.

I think this is probably temporary. the key is how you allowed the club to stop and stay in the same position in the backswing because you felt less stress, due to a larger hip turn. key on that!

Hi Alex, I am 67 years old from Malaysia. I watched your video for the first time today and that's after watching many many other guys out there over many months. You are the only person out there who mentioned about brushing the golf ball like it's done in tennis. Made a whole lot of logic. Can't wait to go out to the range and try it as I have always been smacking the ball flush with no distance.

Very detailed and simple explanations like your video on coiling rather than turning. Coil is a word that suggests power better than turn. In addition I love your explanation of the split hands drill because it slows the arms up and allows the body and arms to synch, extend and the wrists to unhinge naturally.

Alex, I definitely fall under the category of rushing the downswing. It seems that my mind tells me "OK, you're at the top of the backswing so let it rip". I feel that this is the only way to increase my club head speed. A day or two after watching this video I decided to go to a heated outdoor range (it's January and I live in Wisconsin so it's quite cold) and just work on flow and smoothness in my swing while trying very hard to control that top of the backswing anxiety. I was surprised that my driving distance actually increased on average by 16 yards. The swing felt so effortless and I could actually feel the weight and mass of the driver head as I released the club. Incidentally, my swing speed went up about 3 mph. Thanks for the great lesson, it really does work quite well when I control my anxiety to want to mash the ball from the top down. I have to convince myself that the swing is a sequence in it's entirety rather than just from the top down, this was the key discovery for me. Smooth is fast. Thanks again!

Very nice. I like that you mention Harvey Penick….my favourite! Your instruction is worth trying. At 62 I’m getting a bit stiff. I have achieved better swing speeds slightly differently. I allow my hips to turn a little more by letting my left foot come off the ground so that I can get behind the ball. This has given me phenomenal results with my woods….I use a 3 wood to a 13 wood 😂. But I’m still trying to hit to hard with my driver with sometimes poor results. Let me try your method. Thanks Alex.

Alex, have enjoyed your videos this morning. Senior golfer here, single digit handicap. I believe I've come to my "game-changer" swing adjustment, similar to your keeping the club face moving longer in the backswing towards the target, but through a slightly different method....one I've seen tour players promote. That is, to begin the weight transfer towards the target BEFORE you have completed the backswing. This has been great for me, this "coil" action, allowing for my left arm to drop into the inside slot consistently at impact and with much more power ... would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks, Robert
