Hi, I’m Sean Cassidy and welcome to my love child.

SwingSpeedGolf.com is about the quest for more speed…  “Swing Speed” that is.

Increased swing speed (aka club head speed) equals increased distance, and what golfer doesn’t want more of that. 

Sure it’s not the cure to all golfing problems, but more distance sure means more fun… plus it can give you the “opportunity” to shoot lower scores. 

Note:  I said gives you the opportunity to shoot lower scores… not guarantees it.  If all other parts of your game suck and you play dumb golf, then don’t think “Swing Speed” is the magic pill (it sure taste good though )

I don’t know whether it’s out of my own frustrations, fascinations or maybe even a little “inferiority complex”, but I’m on a quest to find more swing speed and this is the place I’m sharing my findings.

While I’m at it, I want your help. 

If there’s anything that you’d like to know about swing speed, or if there’s anything you’ve done that’s helped you increase your swing speed… please share.

I’d definitely like to know, and I’m sure other golf addicts would like to know as well.

“Swing Speed”, aka “Club Head Speed” is by far and away the #1 contributing factor to longer drives.

It doesn’t matter how good or well fitted your golf equipment is… if you haven’t got speed, you haven’t got distance.

Here are some more benefits of increasing your swing speed:

• Longer Drives… and what red blooded male doesn’t what to hit it further

• More respect from your golfing buddies… go ahead and beat your chest a little when you belt the crap out of it

• The ability to effectively get your ball out of rough… the slower your swing speed the harder it is

• Hit shorter, more accurate clubs into greens… mid irons are more accurate than longer irons, short irons are more accurate than mid irons – the shorter and more lofted the club you can effectively hit into a green the closer you’ll be to the pin

• When you absolutely must land in the fairway, you’ll be able to confidently play longer irons and fairway woods off the tee… without sacrificing too much distance

• The ability to stop and spin your ball on the green… if you can’t do this, it’s mainly because you don’t generate enough swing speed (tip – get yourself some good “balls”, cheap rocks do nothing for your game around the greens)

• The faster your raw swing speed… the better your ability to back off and gain greater control of the club for more accura

Anyway, this site started because of my obsession with golf… yes, I’m a self confessed golf addict (much to my wife’s disgust)!

In what now seems like a previous lifetime, I was responsible for getting professional athletes (primarily in the football codes) bigger, stronger, leaner, meaner, faster, more flexible etc. 

At the end of 2002 I had the shits with all the politics in professional sport (not to mention dealing with over inflated egos) and left to do my own thing.

Back to the golf…

I just love it when I cream a good drive, there’s almost no better feeling (sex ain’t bad either)! 

I’m far from being politically correct… so if you’re easily offended, SwingSpeedGolf.com is NOT the place for you!

I’m now on a quest to ramp up my swing speed, and along the way I’ll share what works.

I’m applying some of the techniques, strategies and training methods that I used with professional athletes and adapting them in my pursuit of more swing speed. 

For one reason or another, most of these strategies aren’t commonly known or widely used in golf circles… so I’m bringing them to you, along with anything new that I find worthwhile.

Despite what you may have heard, swing speed is trainable and can be increased.  Best of all… unlike developing a great short game, it does not take years to add 10mph or more to your swing speed.
