This week on Those Weekend Golf Guys you will hear three great ways to increase your swing speed. And we all know that sing speed is the best way to assure longer drives and better ball flight. Jeff Smith, one of Golf Magazine’s Top100 Teachers, runs down his 3 techniques to speed up your swing speed. The first way is to make sure your grip is not too tight on the club. He says the grip should be “soft” but not “loose”. Because when your grip Is too tight your rms and wrists do not function correctly and slow down your swing. The second technique to speed up your swing is to learn how to properly use your legs to “push off” the ground. Jeff describes in detail some routines to practice doing that push off sufficiently. And the third technique involves your core muscles. As Tiger Woods said about his game recently, “I can’t push off with my legs like I used to so I have to rely on my core, and my core is stronger than ever.” Jeff Smith has some pretty cool and inexpensive ways to improve core strength in a short amount of time. So, after this week’s episode, your swing will be faster so your shots will be longer! All thanks to the Second Best Golf Show In The World, Those Weekend Golf Guys
