Speed training is one of the best ways to build a fast and powerful golf swing. With the right equipment, you can gain a few extra miles per hour of ball speed this golf season. With this quick guide, you’ll find the right tools for your game to unlock more speed.
Here’s a quick breakdown of three different speed training devices and the benefits they can bring to your game.
Weight trainers are probably the first thing you think of when you hear the word speed training. They are essentially club clubs with weights on the ends, designed to help increase swing speed by gradually swinging heavier weights over time.
Most brands, like this swing trainer from TheStack System, have programs to help you maximize your speed training sessions and detailed metrics you can use to track your progress.
You may not think of a launch monitor as a speed training device, but it can play a key role in building a more efficient golf swing. Most launch monitors and radars, like this one from Superspeed Golf, record key metrics like clubhead speed, ball speed, strike rate, carry distance and total distance. This type of immediate feedback is helpful during practice sessions and can be especially valuable for tracking progress during shooting range sessions.
