Why Strong Golfers Hit It SHORTER Than Older Players!

Athletic Motion Golf explains why high upper-body strength often leads to shorter drives due to poor sequencing. The video demonstrates the Step Drill, a technique designed to help golfers time their weight shift and transition correctly for increased distance with less effort.

• Relying solely on upper-body strength often leads to 'muscling' the ball and poor weight shift.
• Efficient distance comes from proper sequencing rather than raw strength.
• The Step Drill builds the dynamic motion and timing needed for an athletic transition.
• The step to the lead side should begin just as the backswing is finishing to create a fluid sequence.
