I have been using The Stack System for speed training since Oct 10th. One of the keys to increasing speed is trying to figure out what you did on a good swing that generates the extra speed. It can drive you crazy at times. I tried the "swing the club down quickly" with your arms and it really did not increase my speed. I just started using the technique you described in this video and my swing speed has gone up dramatically. I set a new personal record today at 127 mph for my driver. I would emphasize keeping grip pressure light (4/10). If you feel any tension in hands, forearms or shoulder joint, you are gripping the club to hard. I have a different swing thought than what you mentioned about falling into your left arm. One of my swing faults is pulling the club handle to the ball on the downswing. What I focus on is at the top of my swing, keeping my left hand from moving to the ball first. I initiate my downswing with my lower body for a split second while trying to keep my hand from moving. This gets my chest into my left arm like you discuss on this video. I think it is the same idea with just a different thought process. Thanks for the video!
It's different for everyone, but having a speed radar and experimenting with different "feels" is the key to increasing speed. My feels are the complete opposite of yours (I need to "feel" like I am casting and firing arms early because I have an overactive turn, and also feel that my entire lead side is bracing/posting up/slamming on the breaks to allow the club to sling by) and I can consistently hit the 120s, with a personal best of 127 and I tend to dial it back to around 115-118 on the course. The feels in this video, however, are really good for my irons.
Great presentation. I have found that transition feel that Milo talks about with the lead leg swivels out and at the same time the buttons start down and unwind in front of the ball is the feel.
This seems like a great feel and drill for those of us who swing right-handed but are left hand dominant. I know that for me, drills that emphasize the right arm are difficult and often counterproductive.
I really love this feel and it comes natural to me. My main problem, which I believe stems from baseball, is that I, like you mentioned, have the tendency to let my right arm get behind me when I sink into my left arm, sort of like how separated I might get if I were making a side arm throw to first from short stop, my right arm would really get away from my body. The other problem is a tendency to leave the club face open, because when I get the move right and keep my right arm connected as you demonstrate, it really opens the face more for me, so my brain really rights me on doing that move. Just another reminder that I need a little more work on feeling the face a little more closed by using the right wrist conditions.
This is a good reminder for myself. Being an ex-collegiate baseball player, it reminds me of creating a late stretch through the swing while being on plane
Hi guys, Good content again. Is the feeling leaving arms up or is it just not pulling them down from top? The reason is ask is because if I don’t pull down early and carry the shoulder forward, while my arms are still going back (a bit) my sequence is better than if I think leave them up. I lose flow if I think leave them up… i can’t get it back started quick enough. Seems like it comes back to sequence timing. That move to carry the shoulder forward is so good and helps to “get around the corner”. Love that feeling. Sometimes I’m in such a good position that I don’t know what to do with it!
Falling into your left arm is a great feeling and, no doubt, I hit the ball farther and straighter when I do it. I love the idea of the left arm sling shot! But, I wonder, how does this combine with another video of yours which I also like very much about holding down the beachball on the backswing? Right now I'm thinking that continuing to hold the beachball down (or out) from the shoulders a bit will help with this feeling. Am I on the right track?
You may feel these guys are just filling time, but I went to one of their clinics and both of them are about 19 0or more with a 7 iron and over 290 carry on Drivers.
So much of this stuff falls exactly in line with what I've been trying to learn from Long Drive competitors too. They definitely know how to teach this stuff in a meaningful/athletic way
What they are explaining is a free fall effect with the arms. Left arm has to be slightly bent to achieve it. It’s lead to proper club release and extra club head speed. It’s a Holy Grail move. It’s kinetic, cannot be tense but must time the acceleration towards the ball and go to full finish position and you will truly stripe the ball with a big smile on ya face!
The feel that Milo said he fells is what l am trying to repeat because that feel like the club face face straight up to the sky. It's weird as heck but with that feel l can just rotate with the club face getting support and no worries about it but just rotate and give it every thing l can when needed. It's a very stable swing. I'm hoping l can get it more automatic and better at it.
@@MiloLinesGolf Hey Milo: Really like his style as well as yours and what you guys are doing. With my students I get them mostly during the warmup to do the 'let go drill'. So both hands on club to the top and then let go with right hand on downswing and go to full finish. It is a wonderful feeling as the body unwinds seamlessly. Thanks,
As someone who has a tendency to get too quick with the shoulders opening, I don’t understand how it’s possible for hand path to not come out too much with a focus on turning.
Hand path tends to work slightly out for most better ball strikers in comparison to backswing. How one bends and the wrist conditions play a big role in being able to rotate freely with this pattern. These may help clarify: ua-cam.com/video/-EguBA0TmOA/v-deo.html ... ua-cam.com/video/XkjU6VfhV2s/v-deo.html ... ua-cam.com/video/h6tfhYkVOQg/v-deo.html
Milo are you swinging the club with your body and not actively engaging your arms? You say you are trying to do nothing with you trail arm. Are your arms just a unit that needs to create structure and get in the correct positions then the body will swing the arms? Are your arms OFF essentially? Thanks Milo.
This pressure is starting to shift back to the lead side roughly mid-way in the backswing for most high-level players, this is the stretch we see out of the top as everything is being pulled along.
What's your go to move to start the downswing?

4:39 Padraig Harrington has helped me so much as a newbie golfer. It’s great to see a pro golfer who is able to simplify the golf swing.
He's got some good tips!
The content you guys create is the best golf advice on the net! Thank you!
Thanks so much!!

Best description of the transition yet
thanks so much for watching!
super good video! I especially liked the drill with the club upside down.
Such a simple one and great to train flow. I give Henry credit for that =).

Maybe but I don’t like giving individual advice without seeing a persons swing. Check out my online academy milolinesgolf.com

Thank you gentlemen!
Good stuff, as always. How does Jake Knapp fit into this model? To me he exemplifies a full release 'arm slinger'.
Great feels and observations. I bet I could hit a golf ball over that mountain.
That's a poke haha
Very useful drill, thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Do a UK tour! We/I need you milo!
Would be fun!
Is there a point when you feel like the trail arm becomes more engaged?
It’s the Jim McClean’s X-Factor Stretch of extra 3 deg at P4 at the start of the downswing in the kinematic swing sequence.
This video and drill clicked with me and I am working on it my tendency is to leave the ball out to the right any thoughts
I'd have to see your swing to offer the best possible feedback. Have you looked into joining my online academy? milolinesgolf.com

Feel the flow =)
He's pulling it.
When the club flies off the body is it correct to say;
that at this point the club is travelling it its fastest?
The feel that Milo said he fells is what l am trying to repeat because that feel like the club face face straight up to the sky. It's weird as heck but with that feel l can just rotate with the club face getting support and no worries about it but just rotate and give it every thing l can when needed. It's a very stable swing.

The mountain behind you is mind boggling.
It's a beautiful place!
Who is this with Milo? Thx.

Spent an entire large bucket not doing this.
Bought one more bucket and implemented this and started to hit them way better. This is the way to swing.
Thanks for watching and glad it worked out!

@@jackbisson9226 they feel that way
These guys are the best i should organise flights to australia for clinics u guys would kill it⛳️🇦🇺😎💯👍
Let's do it
*190
If I loaded any earlier I would need medication from "one of those" clinics.
Good work you blokes.
👍
Thanks for watching!
That looks like a recentering move ....one later than you have promoted.
???
This pressure is starting to shift back to the lead side roughly mid-way in the backswing for most high-level players, this is the stretch we see out of the top as everything is being pulled along.
So it feels like you’re swinging with your body and shoulders, no arms.
