3 unique ways to gain clubhead speed (all from the comfort of home!)

3 Homebound Hacks to Boost Clubhead Speed

For golfers eager to unlock more distance, consider these home-based training methods:

  1. Resisted Band Swinging: Attach a resistance band around the handle of an unused club. Perform your usual golf swing, but against the resistance of the band. This strengthens stabilizing muscles, improving swing mechanics.
  1. Plyometric Push-Ups: Begin with a traditional push-up position, then explosively push your body upwards, releasing the stored energy from your muscles. This builds power in the upper body, essential for clubhead speed.
  1. Medicine Ball Rotations: Position a medicine ball on the floor in front of you. Twist your torso and swing the ball explosively from one side to the other. This develops core rotational power, which translates to faster clubhead speeds.

An Investigation into Optimal Golf Putting Cadence

An Investigation into Optimal Golf Putting Cadence

The purpose of this study was to investigate the optimal golf putting cadence for improving putting performance. Cadence, defined as the time interval between the start of the backswing and the impact with the ball, is a critical aspect of putting that has been shown to influence accuracy and consistency. The study employed a randomized controlled trial design, with participants randomly assigned to one of three cadence groups: slow (1.5 seconds), medium (1.0 second), or fast (0.75 seconds). Results indicated that the medium cadence group exhibited significantly greater putting accuracy and consistency compared to the slow and fast cadence groups. These findings suggest that golfers may benefit from adopting a medium cadence during putting practice and competition to optimize their performance.
