hi shawn, i bought the swing caddie via your site. i have no problem getting it to click on the highest setting (135 mph). but the fastest i can swing driver w/o a ball is around 107mph and with a ball around 98 to 100 mph. any advice or thoughts on this?
Throwing the club has helped me tons. Started out throwing it backwards, breaking a few roof tiles of my guest house behind me. Even threw it over the roof and almost hit my car in the front yard. Now I throw it straight and it really helped my game, hitting straighter than ever. However, my swing speed is very disappointing and has gotten worse. I’m suspecting a poor release, I don’t feel a snap and my club doesn’t spin backwards much when comparing to your throws. Maybe one or two iterations on a full throw. Seems like I’m not ”hitting the breaks” or whatever it is that causes a snappy release, it’s more of a smooth swing. Back when I used to swing towards the ball, I felt more of a snappy release towards the ground, resulting in flipping with higher speed but much worse shots, topping and duffing. Where do I go from here to get some snap and speed?
Right on Patrick! There are 2 more phases here that will get you to where you want to go!
priority is the release of the anatomy of the arms, so see these and experience them:
-trail hand release
-lead hand release
-important release update
-release fine tuning
-snap release polish
THEN
-turbo charge lead hand release
-turbo charge trail hand release
-pumping up the swing
-pumping up the volume
Really getting out of the way in the backswing to gather the range of motion you need to use MOMENTUM to throw into that snap release is key so the “lead hand release backswing” is your video there and finally, you can’t be worried about impact or contact with the ball when delivering through so see “goldilocks series” and “target confirmation series” and “stick the finish despite the ball series”
Take your time, enjoy the AH HAs along the way, you are built for this!
keep me posted!

Thank you for your advice! I have watched and tried and I see an improvement in feel, but not in measured speed yet. I have noticed that in my backswing, I feel much more snap than in my late downswing. So I tried backhand or putting my lead hand below my trail hand. Immediately I felt MUCH more snap in the downswing aswell. I have tried your very clever drill with just putting my lead hand softly on my trail hand to practice the yield of my lead hand, which helped the feel but still a bad snap. Is it time to start playing left handed or do you have other suggestions?
Best, Patrik
