There’s a lot of guys on my list of great power swings – Sadlowski, Zuback, David Mobley, Eddie Fernandez. But arguably, Mike Dunaway could be on top. Dunaway was Mike Austin’s most notable pupil, and founder of the 350 Club, back when 350 yard drives were a really big deal. In the 80’s, the National…
Sometimes they crown boxers greatest in the world pound for pound, but how about for driving distance in golf? Until I see different, I have to hand the title to Aaron Davis of Phoenix, Arizona who was a respectable pro long driver. At 5’7″ and 145 lbs., I captured Davis at 138 mph clubhead speed…
If you’ve ever been to a PGA Tour golf tournament, you’ve certainly heard the oohs and aahs of the gallery watching a pro drive the ball for the first time. The ball simply soars out of sight, unlike their hacking attempts to swipe it out there 150 or 200 yards. And it looks so darn…
There’s something very beautiful about smooth efficient motion. And I don’t just mean in golf – but any sport or even dance. I’ve been mesmerized by great athletes from basketball to ballet, from golf to gymnastics. It’s as if poetry from a book by Robert Frost has spilled out all over a sports field. Most…
While the average male golfer has a fairly impressive clubhead speed at around 92 mph, their average distance is pretty poor – only around 220 yards per drive. And remember, these are only the ones who actually report their drives! According to Trackman, most golfers have the potential for gaining 40 more yards without a…
Don’t forget to subscribe to my channel! Most of the golfers I work with as private clients aren’t driving the ball as far as they want. They’d love to make the game more fun – and keep it fun as they grow older. I’ve got tons of students in their 70’s! Almost every one of…
A name you’re going to be hearing a lot of in the next few years is Matthew Wolf. Matt helped Oklahoma State to the NCAA Championship his freshman year after multiple state titles in California. I’ve known Matt since he was around 10. He’s a generational player. Future major winner. The next Jordan Spieth. With…
Standing up through impact, often called ‘early extension’ (which refers to the hips pushing on a vector towards the ball) is one of the most common and destructive moves you can make. Usually, as the hips either shift on the wrong vector, towards right center field, or you just shift straight at the ball through…

Watching your drive sail high and off to the right can be a very helpless feeling. Because you know that as soon as you start trying to correct it, that’s when you get the surprise duck hook from too much flip. A block is a type of slice that shares only one thing in common…
