JB Holmes Video Tip For More Power
Watch this YouTube video of JB Holmes, as he tells you his SECRET to more power in his golf drives. It’s amazing to me that he mentions in the video his hands AHEAD at impact with his driver! I’ve never heard of that before, but he is so strong that the whip he creates with the unhingeing of his wrists just past impact creates a massive amount of clubhead speed and distance.
Now I would say this is a bit unconventional, but it works for JB. The majority of the time, you will here that you need to hit the ball with your driver with an ascending (upward) blow to maximize launch angle and distance, but I guess JB does it his OWN WAY!
What you can take away from this is the importance of holding your wrist cock (lag) as long as you can into the downswing. Try to think of holding it atleast to impact, but you will most likely not do that. But that’s the thought you want.
You will also notice, JB and his golf instructor mention the swing sequence coming down, and it’s definitely the big muscles leading the way, with the smaller ones at the end. This part is very conventional, and also states the importance of starting your downswing from the ground up, and not with your hands first.
