  • It feels lighter but in reality it throws off the sequence of your swing and therefore results in shorter shots. They showed it on Sports Science.

  • Hmmmm Hank must have learned something after this video was made because he's now on the "Singnature" infomercial saying the exact opposite about weighted clubs increasing club head speed. Wacky.

  • i use a the extra weight for the beginning of the round so i loosen up

  • @dschultz6072 I'd have to disagree. Most recreational players have spent their entire lives swinging the club 'easy' (slowly) in order to more efficiently execute the compensations they have in their swings; searching for the center of the club face. Yes, square, center strikes will maximize what speed is there, but the idea that 'speed will come naturally in time', is just a myth. Recreational players can't generate speed because they haven't developed the fast twitch muscles to do it

  • I swing a shaft one handed a few times with the right hand and the left hand. That increases club head speed

  • Want to boost your site sales?An Affiliate system is the best tool you can use,My choice would be the GAS system,Because it is the only one easy to install by anyone, all others require high coding skills,Go get it at GAS-AFFILIATEdotCOM and make your site a hit in days.

  • @AramNai Yes sir. A professor at University of Hawaii did numerous studies showing donuts for warmup actually decreases bat speed for that at bat. But yet the pros keep using donuts in the on deck circle.

  • @Inmotion70 I'm guessing it's just like a using a donut in baseball. It only feels like you're swinging faster.

  • @Cantrell - you're exactly right. It has been shown in numerous studies that swinging a club that heavy will have a short term negative effect on clubhead speed. There is some validity that it can give muscles a great range of motion and that can increase the speed if eventually you can get over the coordination change.

    This again proves that the supposed 'top teachers' theories are almost never rooted in any science.

  • I agreed, it is all about money, they will probably endorse anything if the price is right...
