Top Speed Golf

The Only 5 Golf Swing Pieces That Really Matter

Navigation

Welcome to Clay Ballard's Top Speed Golf Instruction

I founded Top Speed Golf in 2015.

Here's what it's all about...

When you analyze the swings of any top player in the world -- whether it's Jim Furyk, Adam Scott, or anyone else -- there are 5 aspects they all have roughly in common:

1. Stable & Fluid Spine

2. Power Turn

3. Top Speed Lag

4. Compression Line

5. Straight-Line Release

I've found that these 5 pieces will give you 95% of your results.

My Top Speed Golf system teaches you those 5 aspects in a step-by-step, course-based fashion.

"Does it work?" you may be wondering...

HI002. Number 1 Trick for Better Golf

In this video, you’ll learn the number 1 trick for better golf.

This will simplify the process and clear all the clutter from your mind during your swing.

The average amateur golfer tends to make the golf swing a lot more complicated than necessary.

If you worry about having every part of your body in the perfect spot at all times during the swing, it will not lead to good results, typically.

In this drill, I’m going to simplify your swing so you can free your mind to think about the couple things that actually matter.

Stay around for the end as I show you how this drill all ties back to the Top Speed Golf System.

Let’s get started….

C029. Predict Perfect Contact

In this video I’m going to teach you how to be able to predict perfect contact with your irons.

Let me guess, some days, when your swing feels good, you can go out and hit solid iron shots so easily.

Then the next day rolls around and you feel like you’ve never played golf before.

I know it can be frustrating.

Fortunately, I have the perfect drill to help you ingrain the proper feel when you hit irons.

You’ll learn;

  • the two keys to a consistent swing,
  • what “not” to do during your swing, and
  • where this all fits into the Top Speed Golf System.

Let’s get started…

C028. Number 1 Drill for Solid Irons

In today’s video I’m going to give you the number 1 drill for hitting solid irons.

Have you ever wondered why it sounds different when you hit an iron compared to some others?

Have you ever thought, “Why can this guy get more distance out of his irons than me?”

Have you ever thought to yourself, “Why can’t I get that explosive feeling from my irons all the time?”

If any of these thoughts have ever crossed your mind on the golf course before, then today’s video is right up your alley.

In today’s video you’ll discover,

  • a simple progression drill to help you start compressing the ball like the pros,
  • why you’ve been losing distance with your irons, and
  • how this drill fits into the Top Speed Golf System.

Let’s get started….

C027. Divots Matter

In today’s video I’m going to show you why divots matter and how they’re very important in self-diagnosing your golf swing.

What if I told you that you had access to vital information about your swing every time you stepped foot on the course?

What if I also told you that most people are unaware of this information, or understand how to use it?

I consider today’s video one of the more important videos that I’ve done.

If you’ve ever struggled with hitting thin shots, or feel like you need a good or “fluffy” lie in order to hit solid shots, this video is perfect for you.

I don’t want to ruin too much to the surprise on the content of this video, so I’ll just say I think you’ll get a lot of good information from it.

Let’s get started…..

 

L031. Swing Plane Doesn’t Matter

In today’s video I’m going to show you why swing plane doesn’t matter.

Have you ever thought, “Why are there so many different looking swings when I watch a pro golf tournament?”

How could all these different looking swings result in pro level golf?

Find the answer to this question and more in today’s video.

In this video, you’ll discover:

  • the part of your swing that matters most,
  • tips on how to generate lag in your swing,
  • and how this video ties in with the Top Speed Golf system

L030. The Anti Flip Drill

In today’s video you’ll learn,

  • the move many make that burns up your club head speed,
  • how to use the butt of your club to measure if you’re in proper alignment, and
  • two simple drills to teach you the proper feel through contact.

G102. The Club is Behind You

In this video, “The Club is Behind You”…

You’ll learn how your club position can make or break your swing.

You need to keep the club in front of you throughout the swing, right?

Wrong!

Now, you may feel like you have more control of your swing by keeping the club in front of you…

But it comes with a cost: You’ll likely struggle to generate much swing speed. 

In today’s video, you get an in-depth look at your club position throughout the swing…

And you’ll learn how a few simple tweaks to your club position can help you create more lag and clubhead speed.
