Man it’s amazing how far ahead Jamie was without the current tech. 10 launch and 2400 spin is way too low and spinny for what they want today, but that 136 club speed is no joke.
I still think ability to have strong fingers , loose strong wrists, every one can swing really fast it’s what happens at impact, hands fingers just fail
My best drives are about 320-340 yards, without any wind. That's when I catch the sweet spot. Clubhead speed is around 115-118 mph. I'd kill to have another 20-25 mph of clubhead speed like Jamie. And hit 350 yard "spinny" drives. 😳
it's funny when I swing slower wider more controlled it always goes farther I was always told you can swing faster on two conditions one being make sure you keep your balance though out the swing and number two being make sure you hit it in the sweet spot
You so right after 4 back surgerys an heart surgery an i just had a long drive contest this past weekend with a pga pro an I WON just cause way i always swing i dont hit them over 400 yard drives nomore but i can still hit over 300 with this easy swing now..the extra speed came from seperation of hips from the body the rods an pins want allow me to do that anymore
Agreed it's all about focused power not club head speed where you can kill the golf ball the golf ball will always get stronger than the today's golf clubs you see today even if technology advances golf balls will always become more heavier with more cores and the golf clubs itself are more lighter than what it was back In The Day and don't forget about the wind most people nowadays focused too much on club head speed because even club head speed won't make it towards the wind and it is 100% true unless you will be able to go back in time where clubs and golf balls are the opposite back In The Day than what today's technology looks like then you can crush that ball towards the wind and the weirdest thing is that today's technology is making golf way harder than it supposed to be alot of years ago That is why it's all about focused power and not club head speed because it will make you kill the ball even if you didn't notice or having the right fluent tempo and it's ok to slow down a little bit on the top of the golf swing as long as the power comes from the down swing keep that in mind about the wind it's extremely important
He's an accomplished player, which most LD contestants, while being scratch players probably, can't really reach. Different dream. He accomplished one already.
...crowds must have assholes. Anyway my drive is almost completely different...he uncoils near the bottom of his swing, I try to keep my arms extended all the way through. Definitely costs me some distance given a perfect straight shot but I have far better control and reliability than with his technique...what he really and truly relies on is hitting the ball square and straight. His swing makes that almost impossible. So it's not muscle power or "swing speed" that he has as an advantage. It's his ability to hit the ball square despite his swing..
He hits it long but it goes everywhere, he should stick to long hitting contests, and leave pro golf to those who can hit it to where they want it to go.
You tell people to shut up, and claim to understand golf? He is a professional golfer, handicaps do not apply, but you are excused for your bad behaviour due to feeling inadequate, I feel sorry for you.
so John Daley was correct by taking the club all the way back almost touching his ancle in order to achieve distance he proved he knows what hes doing you can see this with Jamia how far his back swing goes
As a golf player for more than 20 years, it is my dream to break 90. I was not able to attain an excellent round for the last 3-4 years until I finished reading these golf swing secrets “kaha shocking guide” (Google it). I have been striving with my irons (driver OK but not much distance).
