Speed training live : trying to hit 190mph ball speed
Cordie Walker of GolfWell demonstrates a live speed training session aiming for 190 mph ball speed. He utilizes a comprehensive mobility routine including Rotex tools and resistance bands before executing a high-intent speed protocol with the Hits training aid. The video offers a transparent look at the frustrations and plateaus of elite-level speed training and the cues needed to maximize clubhead speed.
To gain speed, you must practice with high intent; if you don't feel 'wildly out of control' during training, you aren't trying hard enough.
Effective speed training requires a significant mobility warm-up to activate fascia lines and prepare joints for high-velocity movements.
Consistency is key, but gains often come in 'bumps and plateaus' rather than linear progress.
Increasing your top-end speed raises your 'cruising' speed on the course, making normal drives feel easier and more controlled.
Using a smaller clubhead training aid (like the Hits driver) can improve strike quality when returning to a standard 460cc driver.
