Welcome to Anthony Dunn PGA Philippines Coach, your trusted guide to playing better, more consistent golf. If you find yourself swinging harder off the tee but watching your distance fade away, tension and casting are likely robbing your swing speed.
➡️ Golfers Over 50: Why You Are Losing Power (And How to Fix It)
Trying to muscle the ball and swing harder after 50 ruins your tempo, causes early casting, and widens your shot dispersion. In this lesson, I show you where effortless power is actually stored—in the trail elbow—and how a relaxed wrist whip at the bottom generates maximum clubhead speed without physical strain. By maintaining a lighter grip and letting your wrists release naturally through impact rather than dragging your hands too far ahead, you’ll unlock easy yards and restore crisp, consistent ball striking!
➡️ In this video, I will cover:
➔ Why swinging harder kills senior swing tempo, contact, and accuracy
➔ Where true swing power is stored using a right elbow force demo
➔ How the wrist whip at the bottom creates effortless clubhead speed
➔ Why a lighter grip prevents destructive pulls and hooks after 50
💡 Pro tip: Lighten your grip pressure! Gripping the club too tightly locks your wrists and forces your hands too far ahead of the ball, which kills speed. A relaxed grip allows your wrists to naturally unhinge and whip through impact right where you need maximum velocity.

Try this storage & release feel on the range — resist swinging hard, keep the grip light, and feel the whip. Please let me know in the comments below how you get on. Do you tend to cast early or grip too strong? I'll reply to every comment. Thanks for watching!
Very good visual demonstration !
My biggest problem is a slight flip under pressure
My grip tends to be too tight to be honest
I tend to grip too tight and looking at this makes it feel like I’m over controlling the face through impact
I notice your head stays fairly static over the ball! I think mine lunges forward as I try to bump my hips
Well done on the video, its certainly changed my game!
This makes great sense. Great videos 👏👏
Very good explanation. I have the tendency to hold my grip too tight, will try to loosen.
Very well explained, good gadget👏👏👍👍👍
