Boost Swing Speed With Proper Arm Mechanics

[@OnTheSnap1]

Have a look at gears. All top players generate their peak hand speed early in the swing. Once your hands approach the right leg they are already slowing as you enter the release Phase. If you leave your arms passive at the top and start rotating it pushes the transition outward towards the ball, where top players stay much closer or under the hand path in the back swing.

Doesn’t the arm also has the greatest distance to travel? U see some of the pro turn hips first, but you also have some pros say they drop the arm or start the arm first.

Clearly any motion from the knees and hips and trunk turn with move the arms because it is all connected. We generally like to think about the swing moving from the ground up out to the hands. So as the arms are getting to their highest point and maximum turn to the right the knees and hips are already moving into the "squat" move and the knees and hips flex with the lateral shift of the body towards the lead foot. This shift left with the squat clearly helps drop the arms. The arm rotation back to the left really happens after the arms have already dropped to about left arm parallel to the ground with the shift and squat to the left. The arm motion to get to the left side of the body clearly includes the right arm getting straighter as the right elbow extends through impact and the left elbow starts to flex as it points to the ground. This is a very fast action moving the elbows down and left around the body. We were just trying to highlight that when you sequence the arm rotation motion to the left after you have shifted and squatted to the left you get better speed though the impact zone. Don't do the arm rotation to the left until after you have shifted left and squatted.

I"ve been playing golf for 30+ yrs... why make this so confusing ???? green shirt ...who are you trying to impress with all the medical terminology ?? .... use simple language and visuals that all users/golfers can understand... my head is spinning after watching your movements and listening to your descriptions of this. YIKES!!!!!!!

Appreciate the feedback - will look at future video scripts in terms of level of technical dialog.

Don't understand your point though I'm french, everything's clear to me, you easily catch the whole explanation
