You must use a launch monitor to get immediate feedback on which swing changes actually produce speed.
Speed is about breaking mental inhibitions; practice swinging at 100% intensity without worrying about where the ball goes.
Overspeed training with light and heavy clubs 'tricks' the nervous system into creating a higher speed ceiling.
A proper release through impact is essential for speed and actually helps eliminate blocks and hooks.
Grip strength is a vital component of speed, allowing for better club stability and pulling force through impact.
