OSU’s Rickie Fowler wins in Abu Dhabi

Chris Tyler from Rotary Swing shares his knowledge on recent PGA tour winner Rickie Fowler. This is a great article for all golfers, including Junior Golfers.

The most simple way for you to increase your clubhead speed in golf is taking advantage of leverage. Lag is a giant source of leverage and can help you pick up 30-40+ yards of the tee if developed, preserved and fired in the golf swing properly.

Have you found yourself struggling with lag? Do you constantly find that your throw the club from the top of the swing and you get yourself into a scooped impact position that is lacking any sort of impressive power?

I have great news for you…

In the video below, I will show you how to focus on slowly developing lag and then how to preserve it properly in your downswing so you can pick up some easy clubhead speed just like Rickie Fowler.

Now that you have seen the importance of slowly building lag into your swing and how to use width and rotation to your advantage in the development process, it’s time for you to get to work!

Most Important Junior Golf Article

Here is more great information from Adam Young and possibly the most important golf article you will ever read. This article could be read over and over and over again…..keep reading below

Using an experience to sabotage yourself

You just played some of the best golf of your life and are in the lead of a two day tournament by 3 shots. In the final round, you are pretty nervous, this is a big amateur event. The first tee, you tentatively step up to the ball – your mind is all over the place. You can’t decide whether to play safe or aggressive. Bam – snap hook out of bounds.

You then continue the round striking the ball less than optimally. All your attempts to change the swing make it worse. You finish tied 10th after shooting an 80.

Afterwards, your parents talk about it with you. “What happened to your swing today? We need to do some hard work on the range tomorrow to improve it, it’s obviously not good enough”. You start thinking, “You know what, they’re right. My swing is not good enough”.

Is this really true? Is this swing which got you in the lead after one round really in need of a re-haul? What do you think is going to happen to this player?

Jordan Spieth won the Fedex cup last week – and over 22 million. You would think that winning 2 majors in a year, getting to number one in the world and capping it off with a Fedex win would mean the guy is infallible.

Lesson for all

The illusion of perfect play is simply that – an illusion. Even when a player wins a tournament, he/she will have many poor shots along the way. How you deal with that adversity will determine how you are as a player.

  • How do you react to a bad shot? Is it “Game over” for you once you hit one duffed shot? Or do you pick yourself up and move on, accepting that it will inevitably happen?
  • Are you able to grind it out, as I wrote in my popular article on Grit (click here)?
  • Do you still stick to the process, or do you go searching?
  • How well do you manage your confidence and expectation levels?
