This Drill Will Skyrocket Your Speed and Ground Reaction Forces (Ep. 3)

[@industrialpalletworx3548]

This right here is absolutely amazing!!! There is no doubt this will improve anyone who is looking for speed. Appreciate the video series and I can't wait for the next one.

[@golfwelltv]

We'll be back next week for the final part with Mark Blackburn!

[@RuairiODonnellFOTO]

Crazy how much the vertical forces are so important. I learnt golf in the 1980s, it was all about keeping your head still and rhythm. Now it's about kenetics, forces and timing. The thing that makes this fun is you have instant feedback from the video feeds, launch monitor and force pads. 40 years ago you had to trust your local Pro to debug your swing, now it's avaliable in the metrics.

[@steveregotti8542]

Great job-- this is not an easy change-- keep us posted-- timing is everything!!!!!!!

[@golfwelltv]

Appreciate it. Making this change isn't easy.

[@propilot7428]

Best series ever! Excellent instructor and really informative!

[@golfwelltv]

Appreciate it!! It’s a fun journey.

[@TEKXS00D6]

It's all summed up at the end when Cordie said "I learned a lot!" Me too!

[@golfwelltv]

Thanks for watching!!

[@Brooks_Cupcake]

Best video I have seen in teaching fixes for some of the most common issues for loss or maxing out speed.

[@ahkau4612]

I liked this. Realistic. Thanks!

[@CharlesAlfonso-k8j]

WOW..amazing insight from the both of you. MB is super smart and conveys the information in a very succinct and understandable way. and cord is the perfect student for this exercise..thanks

[@golfwelltv]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@trentpatterson4305]

Vanilla ice is coaching golf now!!!😮

[@codex6594]

Really interesting stuff, enjoyed that, Mark's awsome, thanks Cordie👍🍻big shout out to the camera man also, think he does a great job👌🍻

[@golfwelltv]

Really appreciate it!!! Passed along the complement. Thank you!

[@stevegallagher9541]

This is epic, not only faster but straighter for me too. Only slight thing I need solve with it is I get a lot more backspin so ball doesn’t go any further?

[@golfwelltv]

Time for a new driver fitting!! This happened to me as well. New episode coming out on this in the next few weeks.

[@jim60631]

Cordie - practice attempting to flip your driver face like a hacker, as hard as you can from what you perceive your "release point to be" and video it. I guarantee you that you won't be able to actually get a bent left wrist at impact. I've been a sub for a while and have really enjoyed your stuff surprised you don't have more to be honest. You know that as long as you are sequencing and pivoting correctly it's almost impossible to truly flip it because your wrists muscles aren't strong enough. However you have to remember (think hack motion) you want your left wrist EXTENDING into impact; so impact is just a moment in time and you want that left wrist going from flexion -> extension (in a perfect world) moment after impact but you have to feel like it's happening way sooner to line the club up. As a former handle dragger myself you need to practice flipping it to really feel it. Hope that helps.

[@holydaym]

Exactly this. Try releasing /snapping waaaaay earlier, like the worst 36 capper you've seen. Your vert timing should improve.

[@golfwelltv]

Great commentary here!!!! Spot on with the feel. Been working on this for sure.

[@kckong3]

good stuff. lateral, rock n roll, twist & JUMP + the analytics look so familiar. no wonder... TPI certified expert 👍

[@zacharymilos392]

This is very cool. The part I'm most interested in is how you'll turn a long drive swing where you get across the line and super high hands into something that resembles your normal golf swing while keeping 95% of the speed

[@AndreeB19]

If anyone in the UK wants that type of technology, try Sam Vickers Golf Performance at the National Golf Centre in Woodhall Spa Lincolnshire, where the Hotchkin golf course is situated. Sam is amazing for golfers of all abilities, pros and high handicap golfers.

[@downshiftgolf]

Great stuff!

[@golfwelltv]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@ahkau4612]

Watch Rory. P4-P5 Gradually ramps up speed with shift & body turn. Does NOT explode out of the blocks at P4 with the arms. P5-P6 pulls handle "in" to start kicking head out. The chop from the top is a different move/sequence. Choose which suits you.

[@sergio_lelevier]

Do these drills and techniques also apply to irons?

[@robsaxepga]

If you need to push up sooner, wouldn't the lowering need to happen earlier as well? Like in the backswing?

[@louispounds7486]

Does one do a modified version of this for iron shots as well?

[@jamiekelly7280]

Great content 👍

[@johncirillo9544]

I was chasing speed while trying to get to scratch in my golf game. I plateaued at a 3.7 index. Once I stopped chasing speed, my index has dropped to a 1.7. Perhaps others can achieve gains in both, but I could not. I found myself rushing my downswing costing me accuracy. Kudos to those golfers who can improve their golf game while gaining speed. Being able to overpower a golf course is a huge advantage. It just wasn’t working for me.

[@graybeardgolf]

But, I bet that all that training to increase speed ultimately resulted in a faster speed under control. So, instead of 101 mph club head speed under control, you can get closer to 110 under control instead of 120 at full speed.

[@robertmiller531]

Fantastic video series! @18:26 what speed stick are you using? Is it Rypstick? Thanks and looking forward to seeing more of these types of vids!

[@golfwelltv]

Appreciate it!! It is a Rypstick. Have some episodes with Luke Benoit on the channel talking about it

[@steveregotti8542]

Great teacher!!!!

[@golfwelltv]

Mark is awesome!

[@craigcameron6450]

Great stuff

[@benmartinez8995]

He should have just had you do full effort med ball slams it’s the easiest way to feel this… if you do one you will realize very quickly that while your releasing the med ball to the ground your feet are up in the air

[@golfwelltv]

It’s funny you say that because we did after we stopped rolling!!! You can see it in the shorts feed.

[@pschlick4]

Interesting video but what's the drill that's mentioned in the title?

[@brianryden6045]

Kudos to the camera guy for having to stand in the hosel danger zone while you swing super fast with alien swing feels.

[@golfwelltv]

Hahaha. He’s brave.

[@irishtickles]

I followed these instructions exactly. The result was that the other guys in my golf league say this new swing makes me look like an octopus falling out of a tree.

[@MJ1331EL]

This kind of feels like a great drill for dissociating/separating the hips and upper body movements?

[@isambo400]

Does anybody do coaching like this near Cincinnati?

[@gregoryperrott3848]

You should be thanking Bryson and Kyle for changing the way you think about speed training

[@cpv3golf]

Whatever happened to squating on the backswing? Most my students cannot squat in the downswing due to lack of coordinating and timing the move into the squat or just don't have the core strength to do it. So I have my students squat in the start of the Backswing after the takeaway. Amazing results in consistent ball striking and power distance. Squating in the start of the Backswing is so much more natural to doing the squate. It does not matter if the student is a center, rear or front loader. The best illustration I give is thinking you are a drill bit drilling into the ground on the backswing and then reversing at a higher speed coming out of the ground on the downswing. When done correctly there is no early hip extension.

[@mattj265]

I'd like to see them try this with a persimmon driver! This is what's wrong with golf, too much emphasis on speed instead of working your way around a course.

[@JJBIRDIEGOLF]

Is he trying to pull his hands (handle) in, and up and around?

[@samboroller]

Interesting vid thanks. Though never seen someone look so uncomfortable trying to jump up and down. Maybe it’s harder than it seems… *jumps up and down* Nah

[@golfwelltv]

😂😂😂. I couldn’t agree more. I need to work on my ability to jump and not look like I’m about to fall over.

[@samboroller]

💪😁

[@kmsnow6292]

2 names come to my mind: Happy Gilmore and Scottie Scheffler.

[@giveupgoogleno3450]

It's easy to think of it like a super hero jumping to fly

[@foreal8691]

The irony of wearing an Air Jordan hat and having no vertical! 😂😂

[@bamabillnc]

I don't remember Nicklaus, Hogan, Els, Elkington, Scott, etc ever jump-twisting in their swings.

[@graybeardgolf]

Jack Nicklaus averaged around 270-275 yards on his driver. Also, often times we overtrain in practice to make minor improvements in normal play.

[@3n2a2]

See GRF Golf. Marcus demonstrates a small vertical movement (pop) that is very quick and has large vertical force. You can get 80% without leaving the ground. Lots of swing types. Jack hands high flying elbow very different Ben hands low vs Adam poster pretty. They all post to crack the whip for power. I think leaving ground a little is better for lead knee & hip. Mine feel better & ball goess further & straighter with well timed pop. Gary walk thru good for lead knee as well. Jack, Greg, Tiger... all swung pretty hard in competition. Padraig is longer now than in his prime.

[@NickWainwright6970]

Every sport has improved since then…..sprinting, throwing, swimming,

[@jason12311000]

when his lead heel comes off the ground, it lands in the same spot. this is bad. that lead heel should be landing closer to the target on the downswing. He is falling backing or something is wrong.

[@Brooks_Cupcake]

With your experience in biomechanics as well as your students, why is this bad?

[@jason12311000]

@@Brooks_Cupcake thats what every good long drive coach says. Look at Rory. He does it. Bryson does it.

[@Rusty40b]

lot more interested getting someone from 70 to 80 than 150 to 180

[@isambo400]

Someone swinging at 70 is either old, very small, or has absolutely terrible golf swing mechanics

[@outlander234]

@@isambo400 yeah i dont swing fast at all and my distances are low yet even i am at 80+ speed

[@bomb_and_gouge]

Get your hands on "the golfing machine ". Im sure mark have 5 or 6 laying around😅

[@luminalarc887]

"Unweight" is a confusing term for me. It seems like he is applying more downward force as he is digging in before the jump.

[@maxwired2235]

So how does Fred Couples or Ludwig Aberg etc accomplish their distances without jumping out of their shoes?

[@Parmesan300]

Go take another look at Ludvig’s driver swing. His left foot pops out.

[@TuMadre1337]

Deadpool does speed training.

[@neoone75]

99,9 percent of us this will lead to early extension.

[@lucascarman2578]

I've never seen someone whose natural jumping motion is leaving their arms down lmao

[@getdat]

This is why 99% are terrible at golf. Because they can't make this simple move

[@isambo400]

Its not simple if you don’t have it!

[@ahkau4612]

His head is restricting his backswing rotation. Also there is a time to pull along shaft and at a angle to the shaft. Some parts of the path are flatter, certain portions are more curved. Perfect circle idea puts you in prison. To understand this we need to separate motion from arms and the body (which is shifting and turning) - you cant see this on shot tracer

[@hicharbud]

not for older golfers 😂ouch

[@nedgermany]

Dude this didn’t skyrocket YOUR speed. Come to my garage. 185. I hour

[@johnathanwetherill456]

I am loving this series but all I see here is your iron play going to shit . Do you want to be a long driver or a golfer ?

[@golfwelltv]

Irons have survived the speed training :) Wedges are rough.

[@cluman1]

The guy in black comes off as an idiot. The guy in blue knows his stuff. Most long hitter talks about these drills.

[@golfwelltv]

😂. Thank you. Please ignore my commentary then. Yes Mark does know his stuff. Listen to him.
