In another topic, the idea that the arms contribute (significantly) to clubhead speed was discussed. Some feel the arms are "passive" or exert no "effort" while others feel they are anything but passive and exert a great amount of effort. The video and the discussion below is meant to continue that conversation. Is this scientific? No. Am I able to do each of the three variations perfectly? No, but I tried as hard as I could, and was completely willing for the "turn only" swings to demonstrate a higher speed than they got (and, TBH, I was surprised at how much speed I could

I've been Playing Golf for: 20 years My current handicap index or average score is: 80 My typical ball flight is: straight/weak draw The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Short drives.

Out of sync somewhere? In the head-on video (video 1), I can see an early release where my wrists uncock before impact. I never would h

Yesterday I came across in reading a scientific article entitled: Comparison of Kinematic Sequence Parameters between Amateur and Professional Golfers. Essentially, the authors have evaluated differences (in terms of average and dispersion) between the kinematic sequence of pros and amateurs and presented several interesting values table; I'll try to exemplify and summarize the article to get to my point as quick as possible (in case you might read the article attached). Among others, they measure the rotational acceleration values of the main segments: Because the body consists
