🗣️ Comment “PURE” if you want to add 10–30 yards to your drives! Driver Speed — ignore this old

Rob Cheney Golf debunks the traditional 'low and slow' takeaway advice for driving distance. By moving the hands and club away briskly to shaft parallel, golfers create proper rhythm and energy transfer into impact. This speed breakdown and proper sequencing helps golfers add 10 to 30 yards to their drives.

• Abandon the 'low and slow' takeaway myth to unlock greater clubhead speed.
• Move hands and club briskly away from the ball until the shaft is parallel to the ground.
• Allow the swing speed to ease naturally near the top of the backswing before accelerating hard into the downswing.
• Decelerate the hands near impact to transfer kinetic energy efficiently into the clubhead.
