Sections6
Drills11

Dynamic Warm-Up

8 min

Speed Sticks / Overspeed

10 swings

If you have a speed stick or alignment stick, make 5 swings each side as fast as possible. No ball needed.

Progressive Swings

8 balls

Start at 50% speed, then 70%, then 90%, then 100%. Use a 7-iron. Build up to max effort gradually.

Focus: Train speed, then apply it

Ground Force Training

12 min

Jump Drill

10 balls

At impact, push off the ground with your legs as if you're jumping. This engages your lower body for more power.

Squat & Fire

10 balls

In transition, feel a slight squat before firing up through impact. Mimics tour-level ground reaction forces.

Focus: Push the ground for power

Width & Extension

12 min

Wide Takeaway Drill

10 balls

On the takeaway, push the clubhead as far from your body as possible. Wide arc = more speed.

Full Extension Finish

10 balls

Swing through to a full, complete finish. Arms extended, chest facing target, weight fully on lead foot.

Focus: Big arc, full extension

Driver Max Effort

10 min

Tee Height Experiment

6 balls

Hit 3 balls with the tee low, 3 with the tee high. Find which tee height gives you the best launch.

Swing for the Fences

5 balls

Hit 5 drivers at absolute max effort. Track which ones go the farthest and what they felt like.

Focus: Let it rip — max speed

Short Game

10 min

Distance Wedge Work

5 each

Hit to 60, 80, and 100 yards. Distance comes from the full bag, not just the driver.

Focus: Score with your wedges

Cool-Down

8 min

Smooth 80% Swings

5 balls

Hit 5 shots at 80% with your driver. After max effort training, this controlled swing should feel smooth and powerful.
