We've reached the third week of our series on hitting the golf ball further without changing your swing. In the first two weeks, we discussed optimizing angle of attack and ensuring proper sequence with the lower body to start the downswing.

Now, let’s dive into the third and final part: simply swinging faster. Most of us can increase our distance by swinging faster, but here’s the catch—how we normally try to do it doesn't work. Typically, once a round, we get fed up and decide to “swing out of our shoes,” expecting to magically add 10 mph to our clubhead speed and gain 20 extra yards. Unfortunately, that’s not how it works.

The reason is that your body doesn’t know how to move the club faster safely. Our bodies, particularly our brains, have a governor known as neuromuscular reaction time. The golf swing is a motor program stored in our brains, and when we access that program, there's a speed limit set by our bodies. To swing faster, we need to change that motor program by actually training our bodies to move faster.

So, how do we do that? By swinging things that are lighter than our driver. Many Olympic sports like javelin, shot put, or baseball training use objects slightly lighter than the standard equipment to train the body and brain to move faster in familiar movements.

In golf, SuperSpeed Golf offers a training system that does exactly this. It includes three clubs: two are lighter than your driver (one is 20% lighter, the other 10% lighter), and one is 5% heavier. Their training always starts with the lighter clubs, helping your body move faster, and gradually reintroduces the load so that by the end, you're swinging something heavier than your driver faster.

If you're serious about increasing your swing speed, SuperSpeed Golf can help. I've worked with SuperSpeed Golf for several years, and many of my students have seen great improvements, often achieving a 5% increase in clubhead speed within the first six to eight weeks of training.

I hope that over the last three weeks, you’ve found at least one nugget of information to help you hit longer drives—because who doesn’t want to hit longer drives? But in the coming weeks, we’ll shift gears to other topics that will help you shoot lower scores.
