00:00so one of the questions that I get asked quite a lot is how fast or slow should I swing a golf
00:12club to get the most out of my swing and this is a really difficult question to answer because
00:17unfortunately not everyone swings at the same speed so it's very important that I just say
00:22you I don't just say you need to swing it at five if we had a scale of one to ten ten being the
00:27fastest because that would be wrong because not everyone plays their best golf at five so what I
00:33like to try and do is I've got a three ball set up is this is just a nice little drill to try and find
00:38your own tempo so the idea with is I want you to think of the first ball as we're going to swing
00:44this as slow as we can this is what we call awareness speed swing so kind of as slow as I can
00:50the whole way back and through just to give myself a guide of what slow is so if I just hit one and
00:56I'm thinking this is only going to go kind of 20 yards just really slow back and through and I
01:05just about carry the water just to give myself a gauge now I want the second ball to be as fast as
01:11I can so this is 10 on the scale so literally like blink and you miss it type swings but I really want
01:15you to hit one and I need you to feel what the fastest one feels like so if I was to set up and
01:22let's try and crack one down there that was far too fast for me but now all of a sudden I can
01:30actually I felt what slow is and I felt what fast is now I want to try and find something that I can
01:37settle with that feels natural right so I'm going to try I actually quite like to have a fastest sort
01:43of swing so I'm aiming for the sort of six and seven mark and let's see if I can just find one
01:49with a nice kind of tempo back and through and that surprisingly was quite a nice shot but the
01:57way I've did that was I experienced both ends of the spectrum really slow really fast and I settled
02:03for something that I can do on time and time again on the golf course take that to the driving range
02:08really experience both ends and trap the middle and enjoy some good shots
