I am in my mid 30's, 5'10" and 160 pounds. Able bodied but not an olympic athlete. I have been playing golf for 5 years and have always been told to swing easy because it allows for more consistent results. As a result, I have always had a mid to high 90's driver swing speed and I very rarely spin a wedge.
Last weekend, I decided for no apparent reason to swing all my clubs as hard/fast as humanly possible and I was really impressed with the results.
I usually pull my shots due to an OTT swing, however, I noticed that when I swing as hard as possible, momentum prevents me from pulling everything left on the downswing (think of it as the left over resistance from taking everything backwards in a very heavy/fast manner).
Also, I noticed that my irons shots started spinning when hitting the green.
I liked what I saw and will continue transitioning to a much harder/faster swing.
Has anyone done this? What were your long term conclusions?
