The Secret To More Clubhead Speed (Without Swinging Faster!)

PGA Professional Tom Blanckaert from We Play Golf demonstrates how to increase clubhead speed without increasing swing effort. By maintaining identical setup, backswing rhythm, and acceleration across different clubs, the longer shaft length naturally increases swing speed and distance.

• Maintain the same setup, rhythm, and swing effort across every club in your bag.
• Avoid swinging harder when moving to longer clubs like long irons and fairway woods.
• Allow the increased length and mass of longer club shafts to generate higher clubhead speed naturally.
• Target an ~85% swing effort on the course for repeatable acceleration and better consistency.
