How My Student Gained 20 Yards With ONE Simple Move (Lever System Explained)
Matt Baker demonstrates how to unlock effortless distance by mastering the golf swing's lever system. He explains that speed is generated through a proper release rather than body force, using the 'L-to-L' drill to build real compression and gain up to 20 yards with irons.
Distance is produced by a functional lever system (wrists and arms), not by 'heaving' the body.
The arm must move freely within the shoulder socket to create a 'snapping' speed at the bottom of the swing.
A 'flippy' sensation is often necessary for beginners to learn how the club head should pivot past the handle.
Master the 'L to L' motion, ensuring the wrists re-hinge into an L shape on the follow-through.
Effortless speed comes from allowing the weight of the club to create momentum rather than forcing it.
