How to Transfer Energy for More Clubhead Speed (Kinematic Sequence Explained)
If you’re struggling to generate clubhead speed, the issue is often not effort but how energy is transferred through the swing. In efficient golf swings, speed is created through a sequence of acceleration and deceleration between body segments. When this sequence is working well, energy moves effectively through the chain and into the club.
In the videos below, we’ll look at how this pattern works and why it’s essential for producing speed. You’ll also see a simple drill designed to improve how energy is transferred into the lead arm and ultimately into the grip.
This drill is also highly effective for players working on maintaining dynamic posture in the downswing, helping to regain forward bend and avoid the club working too far underneath the plane. It can be especially useful for those whose trail leg and hip move excessively towards the ball in transition and downswing.
