You don't have to start hitting it dramatically shorter just because you're getting older. In video 7 of the "Keys to RST" series, I will discuss the 3 contributing factors to club head speed... ▪ Rotation ▪ Width ▪ Leverage I will show you how to re-prioritize your swing around these 3 key components and I'll also let you in on a secret that will allow you to keep ALL of your speed OR get it back as you get older. Stop making excuses for your loss of distance and watch this video now!
- Rotation, leverage and width are your 3 key factors for clubhead speed.
- Learn how to use the 3 factors in a balanced way that will work for your swing.

Hi, I'm Chuck Quinton, founder of Rotary Swing Golf.
As we get older, the tendency, of course, is for us to lose a lot of distance, but I'm here to tell you it doesn't have to be that way.
Believe it or not, I have golfers who are in their 70s who can still carry the ball 250 yards in the air off the tee, and it's because they understand one simple concept about the golf swing, and that is there are only three power sources.
You have rotation, you have width, and you have leverage, And I've talked about leverage a lot in this video series, because leverage is just really our lag angle, what we're going to focus on.
Leverage is, there's a lot of different levers in the golf swing, but we're going to focus on the lag angle.
That's the primary one, so when we're talking about leverage, we're really just talking about the angle between our forearm and the shaft, and as we have this, we have potential energy here as we release the wrist.
That's leverage.
Width is the wideness in three dimensions, both going this way and around this way in the golf swing.
The wider you make your swing, the longer the club has time to accelerate, it does a bunch of things.
It has more time to accelerate, and it also effectively makes the club a longer tool, giving you more leverage.
If you swing really narrow, you set your wrist really narrow really soon, and then you swing like this, you're going to have a really narrow swing.
Your body's not going to turn very much, and that's going to take out rotation, which is the third part of the swing.
As we rotate our bodies back, this is giving us torque as our muscles are being loaded in our body, which is going to allow us to produce more power from our dump truck, which we talked about in the other video, getting our lower body to start everything.
These three concepts just simply need to be blended together to produce a powerful golf swing.
Now, as we get older, we tend to lose one of those, and that's really critical because you've probably relied on it your entire golf career, and as you've gotten older, and we've lost a little bit of strength and flexibility, that one thing is catching up with you.
But I promise you, if you take those other two parts of the equation and put those into your swing, you're going to have tremendous amount of power, and probably even more than you had when you were younger.
So to learn what that secret is, I want you to take a look at this video called How to Not Lose Speed As You Get Older, and start pounding the ball off the tee.
