You won't find this is any videos or anything, but watch Tiger when he's hitting driver and needs a few extra yards off the tee. He will snap his left leg straight just before impact, causing his hips to clear faster, causing everything to increase in speed.

No, he hasn't done that since he had knee surgery. Many believe it's this move that primarily led Tiger to leave Butch and sign with Hank.

You have to solidify your technique. If you spend enough watching a lot of am's you'll see a lot of compensating moves which force them to swing the club more slowly than they are capable of. Heck, I've seen juniors with close to 120mph swing speeds.

Yeh, I am only 13 and am only 172cm tall and weigh 60kg. My swing speed with a driver is around 105-110 mph.
