Tune in as we analyze how Micah Morris, who is not a big guy, can generate so much speed in his golf swing! Although he doesn’t have the longest levers, he is able to use the ground effectively and efficiently to product club and ball speeds that are faster than PGA Tour players with a driver in his hand. His effort doesn’t look too high, but his speeds can eclipse 200 mph ball speed, this is due to how well timed and sequenced his driver swing is. Slow motion is the best way to break down a driver swing, from both the down the line and face on angles, including Micah Morris’ Driver Swing as we see here.
There are a lot of takeaways from this video that many amateurs can implement into their driver swing. Whether it be the load into his back leg at takeaway, how early he gets into his front side, or how he loads into both legs (lowering his head) to garner energy from the ground. These are very difficult moves in the swing, most of us can use to find some additional power and speed.

He looks very muscular as well.
Tremendous coil, his hips hardly move on the backswing.
And tremendous lag.
His hands are slowing down as the clubhead is released as late as possible creating tremendous speed from thexarms sling the releasing clubhead through b the ball. Hogan said the clubhead reaches maximum speed a foot past the ball, so it is accerating at impact.
Looking at his hands position at 4:00…pretty sure this was a push slice. Great swing though!
His drive are unreal, however it is his 100 yard and n that will take hi m to the next level?
He finally ditched the red ventus noodle.
Zero accuracy
a fantastic, fundamentally sound swing.
he murders the ball…he hits it so far he jest shot a 67 using only a 2 iron to tee off with..If he could become accurate with driver..would be dangerous
The whip effect is not the hands simply slowing down, this may be an effect not a cause. It is primarily caused by the handle of the club moving up away from the ground around impact time, before and after.
The handle comes up because the left shoulder is moving sharply up and back away from the target. Nobody stresses the fact that the handle MUST come up out of the ground for the whip effect. I’ve experienced this myself recently and added a good few yards to my drives and irons.
Also paradoxically it promotes a downward strike with the irons, I now can hear the fizz from the spin on the ball after impact with irons, even with 60 yd SW shots. Moves need to be made to facilitate the handle moving up through impact to crack the whip , this is my own personal discovery and experience. Golf coaches need to distinguish between causes and effects, passive Vs active etc
Hi how do you get to the world long drive finals do you have to pay
Yeah, no. That would be called "rolling shutter". A mostly undesirable effect of most digital camera sensors that "scan" the photo diodes of the sensor from top to bottom. The bent shaft is a combination of the sensor readout speed and the speed of the clubhead.
To see what the shaft really looks like in a freeze frame you would need a global shutter camera and a fast shutter speed.
