G066. Hands at Impact in the Golf Swing

In this video, you’ll get a close look at your hands at impact.

At impact, the pros are crushing their irons with forward shaft lean.

However, performing this move is easier said than done.

I struggled for years trying to get my left wrist to bow at impact like the pros.

I always tried to push my hands forward in order to get in the correct position.

Here’s the thing…

Pushing the hands forward is dead wrong.

So don’t make the same mistake I made.

In this video, you’ll discover the secret to bowing your wrist and hitting with tons of forward shaft lean.

You’ll also see examples of how Dustin Johnson, Adam Scott, and Rory McIlory perform this move.

Watch now to learn the secret to getting tons of forward shaft lean!

D029. How the Left Arm Works for More Distance!

In this video, you’ll learn how the left arm works for more distance.

This is a great video to add more speed to your swing so you can bust out longer drives.

There are 4 main checkpoints…

#1: Left Arm in Front of Body

In your takeaway and backswing, make sure your left arm doesn’t get stuck behind your body.

Keeping your arms and shoulders in front of your chest will help you make a mover vertical move with your club path.

#2: Take the Club High

As you transition to the top of your swing, raise your left arm vertically.

Tour players such as Bubba Watson and Dustin Johnson perform this move incredibly well (you’ll see clips of them in this video).

Taking the club high helps you get a big, full swing as you rotate your shoulders back and start the downswing.

#3: Shallow the Club Path in the Downswing

As you start the downswing, shallow out your club path.

In the Top Speed Golf System, we refer to this as The Move.

This oft overlooked swing move is crucial for your clubhead speed.

#4: Don’t Forget About Your Hips

For a powerful swing, you need to rotate your hips open in the downswing.

Opening your hips will help free up your arms to whip through contact and into your follow through.

Watch this video now to see all 4 checkpoints in action…

And bust out monster drives once you know exactly how the left arm works for more distance!

G051. How to Shallow the Club with Gravity in Your Golf Swing

In this video, you’ll learn how to shallow the club with gravity.

Shallowing the club in the downswing is a big deal in golf.

In the Top Speed Golf System, we call this “The Move,” and it can really help you come in at a better angle and compress the ball.

I believe a good way to think about The Move is to simply let the club drop down with gravity.

First in the video, you’ll get an overview of what shallowing the club is and why you need to shallow your club in the downswing.

Then you’ll learn some of the physics of the downswing (in Layman’s terms).

Throughout the video, you’ll see clips of how pros such as Adam Scott, J.B. Holmes, Dustin Johnson, and Rory McIlroy shallow the club.

Lastly, you’ll get a simple 2-step drill to help you get the correct feeling of shallowing your club in the downswing.

You’ll avoid swinging with an over-the-top motion, and you’ll learn how to stop casting the club.

Watch this video now to shallow your club in the downswing like the pros!

1.15 How Your Backswing Will Help or Hurt “The Move”

In this video, you’ll learn how your backswing will help or hurt “The Move”.

(Not sure what “The Move” is? It’s what I call the #1 difference between great and poor ball strikers.)

As many of my students progress through The Move series…

A few questions have come up so I wanted to add this bonus video to provide more clarity on The Move and to answer one of the more common questions.

The Move series teaches players to flatten the club path in the downswing.

One question I got was…

“Why not just start the backswing on this flatter club path?”

Great question.

The reason why I recommend not going back on a flatter plane is that it tends to lead to coming over the top in the downswing.

Ultimately though, the only thing that really matters is the club path in your downswing.

As you’ll see in the video, some pros are flat in the backswing while others like Jim Furyk start with a more vertical club path in the backswing.

But they all swing on a similar club plane in the downswing.

A good tip is to have the club on a steeper path in the backswing and then let momentum ease your club to the recommended path in the downswing.

Watch this video now to learn how to put the club in the best position for performing The Move in the downswing!

1.1 Stop Chunking and Topping | Dot and Stick Drill

How would you like to stop chunking and topping your shots?

Well, I’m sure your answer is a resounding “YES!”

Because I know how it’s so frustrating to hit about 3 inches behind the ball…

…and hit a divot that’ll make the groundskeeper angry!

And topping the ball can be just as frustrating…

You take a full, hard swing only to see the ball pop up and dribble about 20 yards.

So how do you make a smooth, flowing golf swing and avoid chunking and topping?

Well, if you’re looking to increase your consistency, then you’re in luck.

Because you’re about to see my “Stop Chunking and Topping” series.

In the series, you’ll discover the 5 most important keys of the Top Speed Golf System.

But in the first video of the series, you’ll discover what’s causing you to chunk and/or top the ball…

And you’ll also get a cool 2-step drill that’ll help you stop swaying so you can hit the ball with more consistency.

As an added bonus, you’ll see example swings throughout the video of Rory McIlroy, Earnie Els, and Dustin Johnson!

Take control of your swing…

And hit solid shots with tons of power!

1.2 Easy Golf Lag Drill: Stick Behind the Ball

In this video, you get an easy golf lag drill.

Now this is one of the best drills out there for getting lag…

And it’s called the “Stick Behind the Ball” drill.

What we’ll cover in this video is actually version 2 of this drill.

I added a few pointers and you’ll also get answers to some of the questions…

…asked by members from the original drill video.

Let’s get started by walking through this great lag drill.

First grab an alignment stick and hold it against your grip…

…to form a straight line with your club (an extension of your club).

As you move into your downswing, you’ll want to keep the stick pointed to the right of ball as long as possible.

This will help you keep your lag and prevent casting your club early.

If you tend to cast your club, this stick will point well ahead of your ball…

So the stick gives you instant feedback on your lag angle.

Keep in mind that you don’t want to try to hit the ball with the stick.

But after working this drill, you’ll drop the stick…

And hit some balls.

At this point, you should be creating a ton more lag.

So watch this video now to get one of my favorite lag drills…

And start whipping your club through impact with tons of club head speed.

2.2 How to Increase Club Head Speed | Whip the Club Like a Clothes Hanger!

In today’s video, “How to Increase Club Head Speed | Whip the Club Like a Clothes Hanger!”, I want to show you an awesome power move to help increase your driver distance…

Do you feel like your lower body is passive?

Do your legs stay bent and slide forward through contact?

This can really hurt your speed.

Don’t Worry…

I’ve got you covered with this video.

You’ll find out how to increase club head speed with the entire body.

As you use the lower body efficiently, the left leg will straighten up and raise the hands through contact.

This changes the direction of the club and allows it to whip through contact with massive speed.

You’re about to discover how Rory McIlroy, Tiger Woods, Ernie Els, Phil Mickelson, and Sam Snead all use this power move to boom their drives.
