Hey over 50 golfers Barry here in today’s lesson we’re going to talk about speed getting a little bit more Club at speed yes everybody wants a little more Club head speed right hit the ball farther and and for sure there’s a direct correlation with distance and shooting lower scores there’s no

Question about that but that’s one of the biggest things I you know feedback I you know I get from my students is how can I get my distance back how can I make my swing easier I don’t want to swing harder and for sure you know swinging harder doesn’t always work

Right cuz your swing breaks down you get up a sequence you start ingraining some bad habits and and the next thing you know you injure yourself I’m going to show you some tips and drills that you can easily do at home that you can incorporate into your practice to help

You gain some athleticism in your swing make it easier to swing and help you pick up some easy Speed and just a little housekeeping before we get started if if you’re new to the channel and you like the videos please subscribe it really helps us to grow our Golf Community and we love hearing from our subscribers if there’s any tips and lesson ideas you want to

Make it easier to swing help you pick up some Club head speed so the first drill we’re going to do is we’re going to use a lightweight to help get your arms and body working together a little bit more you know a lot of golfers as they get

Older or when they start swing trying to swing too hard they swing too much with their arms you know they just start driving the club with their hands and arms and they they forget about using the body and we want the swing to be a little bit more D Dynamic and flowing

From the ground up that’s a little bit more efficient it’s more consistent and it will help you generate some easy speed so I’ve got my weight here it’s just a couple pounds going to set up on my golf stance I’m just going to start start with my trail side here so I’m

Right-handed so this is my right hand I’m going to put my left hand behind my body here and I want to practice swinging this to the top and let it swing away from me but I want to use my lower body I want to use my entire body

To swing this weight back a lot of golfers when you’re to upper body do dominant and just trying to use your hands and arms they go like this they they just kind of swing it back with their arms and you can see the arm stays very close to me and there’s no real

Good body pivot here and there’s no pressure shift in the feet so I want to let the arm extend down here and I’m just going to swing this thing away and to swing it swing it away I’m going to push from my lead side into my

Trail side I’m going to push down into the ground as I turn up this way here and I get this nice Dynamic pivot I get this nice spiraling rotation it’s not hard to do it’s easier on the body when I move from the ground up and I’m active

With my feet just like that I’m letting this weight swing away from me I’m not guiding it I’m letting it swing away and I’m feeling the activation in my lower body pressure moves from here to here my weight starts to move over here I push

Down and it swings up and the nice added benefit with this I feel this great stretch in my red cage and I’m starting to open up my chest and my whole body as I turn doing it naturally and easily to my limits just like that up so I feel this great

Activation and then from there to bring it back down well a lot of golfers make the mistake of doing what they go like this right they throw the arms and hands out they throw the club out and they kind of lunge down and across the golf

Ball you know that’s a swing killer you you get that early release you lose speed you lose control of the club p all kinds of shots happen right heel shots toe shots slices weak shots what I want want to to bring the club back down

So I want to bring this weight back down I want my lower body to move a little bit I want this little D you can see I’m moving from right to left my pelvis shifts and look what happens to the weight it starts to come down and it

Stays close close to me so when I’m swinging back here I comes up I come down the arm comes back close to me that’s a good position for consistency for swing path and for generating more speed and power effortlessly without having to swing harder so the weight

Gives me the feel for that so I get that nice downward action here I can feel it in my feet so I’m not just waving it down like this I’m up here and I’m using my feet in the lower body and I I’m pressing I feel like I’m pressing a

Little bit in the ground I’m not going like this I’m just activating with my lower body to bring the weight down just like that and then around into my finish position and I let myself rotate to the lead side so back boom and around almost lost my balance forward there and that’s

What you’re going to feel is that activation that nice rotation and an active pivot forward so again up and around really feels good I can feel my body opening up then I’m starting to breathe a little bit heavy so I’m getting a little bit of a workout

You only need to do that for about a minute or two and then the lead side now I’m going to start here and I I want to push the weight forward toward the target I want to swing the weight toward the target it’s not like this a lot of

People do this what does that remind you of the chicken wing position that weak scooping position that produces all kinds of bad golf shots what we want to bring this weight forward and the arm forward I’m turning I’m rotating from back foot to the Lead Foot pelvis opens

Up naturally I’m not worried about trying to snap my hips or over rotate them I’m here and I’m just rotating forward you can see where the weight goes forward pulls my arm into a natural position here here and around and around and I get this good opening in my

Side here in the rib cage opening right up just like that boom so I’m starting to activate my swing from the ground up I’m starting to open up my body I can feel this natural athleticism going on real important for consistency and easy speed next so next I got another lightweight

Here just a light dumbbell this one’s 8 lb but again you can use a little light 2 lb 5 lbs you know whatever works for you again not too heavy just enough so we can feel some momentum and footwork going on in the motion I’m going to set up in

My golf stance here going to have my arm arms pretty close to me and how am I going to move this well a lot of people do this right they they’re guiding it with their hands and arms they’re throwing it around we want more of a groundbased action flowing from the

Ground up using the total body back and forth to move this weight so I’m going to get set here and now I’m going to use my feet this pressure shift in my feet to move this weight back and forth so to go back I I move from here to

Here and I feel this activation in the lower body and I’m pressing into the ground with that foot I feel that pressure shift that natural action it’s that pressure shift that’s moving that weight back and if I let go of this it would just go straight back no don’t do

That we don’t want that flying into the wall here but I’m not guiding it right I’m not manipulating it I’m I’m using my feet and the lower body and the ground to move this weave that’s what we want to feel when we swing the golf club and then to go back forward well

It’s not like that I’m not throwing it at you know I’m not throwing the weight down I’m not trying to direct it I go back here how am I going to bring It Forward I move from right to left I move pressure from Trail side to lead side

Start I get this pelvis shift here I can feel weight going this way I’m into my lead foot and then to come around I’m pressing down and look what happens when I press down my hip opens up naturally I don’t have to think oh I got to snap my

Hips or use my hips and all that no I’m just going to press down and the hip opens up here and down and around so I’m getting this nice two and fro action and I’m moving this with my lower body I feel this beautiful rhythmical action back and forth in my feet from

The ground up boom boom and I’m starting to breathe a little bit hard I’m I’m getting a good workout I’m going to feel it in my core and in my legs which is good get that natural strengthening going on and my body’s opening up at the

Same time and then if I feel comfortable well you can go back a little bit higher and then let it come back around and through again I’m using my total body to move it I’m not trying to guide it set here boom and around so really good practice activation Dr

Get the arms and body working together get you a little bit more Ground Force going from the bottom up and I’m starting to breathe a little bit hard I’m getting a good work up again you just need to do that for a few minutes next I get the Rope I strongly

Advise get yourself a rope it’s a fantastic swing Aid it’s probably one of the greatest one out there because it helps you develop that natural rhythmical swing it teaches a good swing sequence good ground force with the lower body and pressure shifts going you can’t direct the Rope it’s flexible

Right it’s loose I can’t guide it I’ve got to learn to swing it from the ground up I’ve got another video on the channel That goes into more detail with swinging the Rope you can take a look at that as well and if you want to get yourself a

Rope just shoot me a comment here and I’ll tell you the the dimensions and setup you need for that it’s going to cost you all of like five 10 bucks if to the best swing age you ever get so I start with the Rope just going to get set up here and

Again like swinging the weights how am I going to move the Rope well if I go with just my hands and I’m kind of almost hit myself in the face there it doesn’t work out very good it’s difficult to move going to get set up here I’m just going

To use pressure shifts in my feet so you can see how I’m slightly shifting left to right here and the Rope is starting to move I’m creating some momentum with the pressure shifts back and through back and through now to go to the top of the back swing well I’m going to push

And turn and I’m just going to let the rope swing back here it is here and it goes over the shoulder again and then up at the top here it goes over my shoulder how am I going to bring the Rope forward I press into the

Ground with the feet there I go again get the P pelvis ship look at the Rope it stays on my back I’m not throwing it with my hands and arms I’m using my lower body so a pressure shift going back to get that rope back pressure shift going forward into

The lead side to bring the Rope forward and you can see when I do that how my pelvis moves my hips open up naturally I’m not guiding the Rope I’m active from the ground up and I start with flat footed boom and then up into my full finish position

And then do that again I’m starting to breathe really hard it’s a fantastic workout gets your body opening up moving from the ground up it loosens you up improves your Mobility at the same time and improves your swing sequence fantastic training aid again back and forth and around

Do a few minutes of that you’re really going to feel it and then lastly we’re going to swing the golf club I’ve got my driver here I’m just doing practice swings I’m not worried about the golf ball I’m just going to get set and I’m going to try to feel like

I’m doing those drills so I’m set here I got a waggle I’m active back and through into my finish position good activation back and forth and again I’m not worried about a golf ball I’m just trying to move athletically here back and through getting good ground force Dynamics using my

Body moving from the ground up arms and body together to swing the golf club if you don’t have room you know you don’t have a high ceiling to swing you can use a shorter club like a seven or eight arm or take the driver flip it over get the

Switch drill going here I’m going to grab it up by the club head and back and you can really feel it whip here and through and you notice the transition is slow it’s unrushed when I go back here I’m not rushing my hands and arms down at the

Golf ball the transition is slow I’m giving my body a chance to move if you even want to feel that pause and stop at the top that is fine so I’m set rotate back and rotate through you can hear this thing whipping I can feel that and again you just do

That for a couple minutes you’re trying to feel the athleticism and freedom in your swing you’re starting to generate easy Speed without trying to swing hard and then from there I I would progress to just swinging at foam balls again I’m not worried about the golf ball the foam

Balls are a fantastic way to practice and the reason why the foam balls are so good they take away the inhibitions of the golf ball what happens when we put the golf ball in front of us we go back to our old habits we go back to directing the club that swinging too

Much with the hands and arms rather than getting a nice athletic pivot so I’ve got the foam ball here I’m set and I’m just going to make a practice way and boom so again you can see that nice flowing action rotating back and through nice Dynamic athletic atic swing

It’s a really good sequence I’m breathing a little bit I’m moving my body I’m rotating I’m training my whole body and arms to work together I’m getting that nice Dynamic athletic pivot moving from the ground up giving myself a chance to change for some easy speed my swing naturally more athletic without

Forcing it you only need to do that a few times a week and boy you really feel a difference in how you move and swing the go give that a try let me know in the comments I’d love to hear from you how it goes we’ll see again buried from over 50 golf
