Throw the Ball Drill Pt 2: The Missing Piece

Published: March 2, 2026

Are you ready to maximize club head speed at impact?

If so, you need the missing piece from our wildly popular Throw the Ball Drill video — and Part 2 delivers exactly that.

In this follow-up, you'll learn a targeted drill to ingrain the perfect release point in your swing. Whether your trail hip spins too early or your lower body stays too passive through the hitting zone, this drill addresses both patterns with the same simple movement framework.

The key is understanding how your trail arm drives the release. When your lead side holds its structure through impact while your trail arm fires past it, you create the whipping action that generates real speed. That's the biomechanical principle behind the throwing motion — and it translates directly into a more powerful, consistent golf swing.

Watch now to improve your release timing and pick up speed at impact — the only place it truly counts.

Checkpoints for Practice

  • For Hip Spinners (trail hip fires too early):
  • Keep the Shoulders and Lead Hip Closed in the Downswing
  • Keep Trail Heel on the Ground Through Transition
  • Release the Ball With the Throwing of the Trail Arm
  • For Non-Hip Spinners (lower body too quiet):
  • Same Motions as Above, But Allow the Lead Hip to Open Through Impact
  • Lead Shoulder Still Square to Ball at the Point of Release
