Smooth Slow Golf Swing Tempo | Swing Speed Radar With Tempo Timer

A good golf swing is more than merely striking the ball hard and fast. Though it is true that the faster you swing, the harder you strike the ball, you need to swing the fastest at the moment the club impacts the ball. The beginning part of the swing should be at a slower tempo.

Going from slow to high speed requires acceleration at some point. That controlled pace or tempo requires practice so that you can execute this smoothly and yet keep your hands properly aligned. Light grip pressure is crucial to ensure slow tempo.

When you watch professional golfers execute a swing, you will observe that the entire motion is smooth and effortless. They are able to maintain control, and only increase speed just before they strike the ball. They never over-swing.

See this in the video below.

This useful and practical device can be used at home in the backyard and at the driving range. Golfers of all ages and skill levels use it to perfect their swing so that they attain the desired slow golf swing tempo.
