You're Practicing Your Swing. But Are You Actually Getting FASTER?
Let me ask you something...
When was the last time you intentionally practiced swinging your driver faster?
Not working on your takeaway.
Not trying to shallow the club.
Not hitting another bucket of balls hoping something magically clicks.
Actually training to swing faster.
If you're like most golfers, the answer is probably never.
And that's a problem.
Because here's something I wish I'd learned years ago...
You can have an incredible golf swing and STILL struggle to generate distance.
Think about how much time golfers spend obsessing over technique.
Grip. Posture. Takeaway. Transition. Wrist angles. Swing plane.
Technique, technique, technique.
Now, I'm not saying technique doesn't matter.
Of course it does!
But even if you developed a technically perfect swing (which none of us will), that wouldn't guarantee more clubhead speed.
And without more speed, you're leaving valuable distance on the table.
Why does that matter?
Because more usable distance can completely change how you play golf.
-
Shorter approach shots instead of constantly hitting long irons and hybrids.
-
More wedges into greens and opportunities to hit it closer.
-
More birdie chances without needing to hit every shot perfectly.
-
More confidence knowing you have speed in reserve.
But here's where most golfers get stuck...
They think getting faster means completely rebuilding their swing, spending hours in the gym, or swinging out of their shoes until they're exhausted.
It doesn't have to be that complicated.
Speed is a skill.
And just like putting, chipping, or hitting approach shots, it's something you can intentionally train.
With the right methods, a consistent routine, and proper recovery, you can work toward developing more speed without turning your entire life upside down.
You don't need to practice MORE. You need to practice SPEED.
And trust me, I learned this lesson the hard way...Â
How I Added 10+ MPH Without
Rebuilding My Swing
When I returned to competitive golf in 2017, my driver speed was around 105 mph.
Not terrible. But definitely not where I wanted it to be or needed to be to compete at the highest levels of amateur golf.
After dabbling in speed training, I hovered around 107–110 mph and wondered if I'd reached my ceiling.
Was I just naturally limited when it came to speed?
I didn't think so. So I started experimenting with just about everything.
-
The Tour Tempo app to improve my rhythm and sequencing.
-
SuperSpeed and The Stack to experiment with overspeed training.
-
Rypstick to simplify my speed training routine.
-
Dedicated speed-only range sessions inspired by Bryson DeChambeau.
-
The HiiTs driver to train speed while actually hitting golf balls.
Not to mention, interviewing pros, top coaches, and world long drive champions on the Wicked Smart Golf Podcast.Â
I've invested more than $2,500 in speed training equipment, experimented with countless protocols, and received coaching from World Long Drive champions.
Some methods worked incredibly well.
Others? Not so much.
And plenty of times, I'd make progress only to lose momentum because I wasn't staying consistent.
But after years of trial and error, something finally clicked.
I stopped searching for the perfect speed training method and started focusing on finding methods I could actually stick with.
Fast-forward to 2026...
I'm now cruising around 115–116 mph, with my fastest swings exceeding 120 mph.
For reference, the PGA Tour average is 116.5 MPH. And that's more than 10 mph faster than when I started.
And I've hit some of the longest drives of my life while playing some of my best competitive golf.
The best part?
I typically trained for speed just twice per week, with sessions lasting around 20–45 minutes.
No complete swing overhaul.
No spending hours in the gym every day.
Just intentional practice, proven training methods, and consistency.
My biggest regret? Not taking speed training seriously sooner.
Because I spent years trying to figure out what worked, wasting money on equipment I didn't need, and constantly starting and stopping.
You don't need to repeat those mistakes.
And that's exactly why I created the Wicked Smart Golf Speed Challenge.
