Tip of the Month - June
Master Your Mid-Season Tempo
As summer kicks into full swing, it’s easy to get caught up chasing distance or overanalyzing mechanics. This month, shift your focus to tempo - the unsung hero of consistent ball striking.
Why Temp Matters:
Great players - from Snead to Spieth - have one thing in common: a smooth, repeatable rhythm. Whether you’re swinging a driver or a wedge, tempo brings together all the moving parts of your swing.
June Drill - The “1-2” Swing Count:
Try this on the range:
Say “1” at the start of your backswing.
Say “2” at impact.
This keeps your swing connected and helps prevent rushing from the top. The result? Better contact, more control, and a swing that holds up under pressure.
Pro Tip: Video your swing at half speed and look for a consistent cadence. A fluid tempo beats fast hands every time.
