Build up the speed

Contrary to what many people believe, I think a lot of amateurs don't swing hard enough.

Too often in pro-ams I hear my playing partners blame a quick tempo for a wayward shot when the actual fault is something totally unrelated.

For a powerful, accurate strike you need a steady build up of pace through the swing.

Remember that at impact the club should be moving at it's fastest so don't be afraid to hit the ball hard.
