There are very few coaches willing to spend time “ educating “ the students about fitness translating to a better golf. I am a physician, and a golfer. My flexibility is way better than many younger players. I do some of these drills periodically. Now I will be even more motivated to work on the specific drills. I think the hip turn drill is superb. This presentation is marvelous. He deserves 10/10 for this unbiased and objective presentation.
What an effing awesome exhibition of power...and a drill to go with it. Thank you! BTW, did follow Kenny at a recent event in Thousand Oaks....and he plain bombs it in actual competition. It appears effortless on the course...and here we can see all the work that's behind such a great swing.
wreckim Kenny is a straight animal. I only wish I had of started w him a few years earlier in his career. No doubt it would have made him a complete BEAST. Glad you got to follow him, he is a great guy.
TP, I love them all, really great stuff for golfers. Except the hip twists at 5:33, seeing a lot of evidence recently that hip speed does not correlate to clubhead speed, which is one reason I LOVE the first and last drills. What CHS can KP get it up to now if he goes after it?
BE BETTER GOLF I will agree that club head speed can come from many sources (ground force, hand speed etc.) but you still need the hips for proper sequencing and getting the built up speed from a to b. All the kinematic sequencing and Enzo reports say it is important.
R VB KP ALWAYS worked hard when we trained. Not to mention the countless hours of practice I witnessed first hand he put in on the range. The guy is a MACHINE.
The question I have is howw is KP's back feeling after all that? Was the chiropractor waiting outside left of the camera view? Lol! Great stuff! Im adding it in to my practice.
Kenny never had any back issues (during this or otherwise lol) it will be great for you to do. I’d throw in a few other corrective exercises to help make sure other areas can move and maintain.
@@TylerParsonstpgolffitness Ha ha. He doesn't look like it the way he's whipping that club around. Thanks for the video Tyler! I want to get back over 300 yards (straight of course) and this may help. But Ive had two lower fusions and am 53 yrs old now.
yes, the hip turning twists at high speed by the teacher looked quite stressful to the spine especially the L-5 S1 area. not to mention the high speed swings with the club and sticks might over stress and hyper extend the wrists, OUCH!!!!!!!!
The frequency depends on your level of fitness and any limitations you may currently have. I would start simple with twice a week and good recovery between and build up if possible.
@@TylerParsonstpgolffitness Thank you for your promptly response. I have being doing some research on how to obtain ball speed and there is a lot of good stuff out there. Currently I am interested in the SuperSpeed Training Sticks but they are over my budget, so I got three different weighted broom sticks and incorporated the same workouts that they use there. I have noticed a positive gain in my ball speed so I'll stick with that... lol. I will also include your exercises in this video like recommended. Sometimes you have to adapt your budget to your needs. lol
@@coachtorres5536 I completely agree! I personally would rather have a client spend the time in gym fixing his body than swinging the sticks. If the body isn’t ready to handle the speed, those things can be bad tool.
Jerry Petersen as I stated below, this was back in 2015 before I was aware of Superspeed golf. Not sure when they officially launched the product. Regardless the exercises are extremely important and I would recommend adding them to anyone’s current program.
Sorry I did not catch the time period that this produced, my system was set to give the newest items first, however, these production was good stuff and some of it I still use.
Jerry Petersen no worries, thanks for checking it out and glad you use some of it. I just recently found the video and posted it to share, so it is a new old one
Recently I reached my goal of 270 yards total my question is if I use some of these ideas will I be able to consistently reach 270 my swing speed is around 92 to 98 mph with driver
Yes, you definitely should be able to increase your speed even more. I’d also question how your flexibility and muscle activation currently is, addressing those usually creates speed too
Bob Sloan this was actually recorded before I was aware or maybe before they were even out. Superspeed is a great product and does a good job with overspeed training. I’d add in the exercises to increase muscle function if you can do so safely at your current fitness level
Jennifer The fat guys are winning . Last year Couples, Monty , Perry and John Daly each won on the champions tour but the skinny guys dominate the winners circle. Langer won 7 times in 2017.
You can say "rotation" ten thousand times like every golf announcer/analyst/new-wave teacher, but it doesn't mean nearly what people think it does, and in fact is not the point of the feet-together drill at all. If anything the feet-together drill is supposed to slow _down_ rotation for most people, to the point where the swinging of the arms and the turn of the upper body are more in sync, instead of the rotary aspects of the swing totally overpowering the swinging motion, as happens with 80-90% of all amateurs. Yes, you "rotate" as you swing, because that's how the body works. But -- as teachers from Seymour Dunn onward have said -- don't confuse something that happens with something you have to try to do. I used to stand four or five feet behind a student and tell him to swing the club around to me with his arms. I never had a single one not "rotate." Also had them swing it around themselves over and over while standing straight up, just to get the feel of actual swinging. Again, not one failed to rotate. Of course it's true that certain kinds of tension or bad technique that get into a player's swing can prevent proper rotation, and when that happens you have to address it. But the world of golf instruction has turned this into some kind of mantra as if the secret of all golf is "rotation." All it really is, is one enabling aspect of a golf swing. It adds range of motion, puts the club into the right routing, and is an element in producing a reasonable amount of coil. But you can drive the club around with "rotation" all you want and not have a real golf swing unless and until you've trained yourself to swing the swinging elements properly.
stephen f thanks for your input Stephen. I think you completely overlooked the purpose of my channel and my theories. Feel free to email or contact me directly if you want to talk in more detail. Thanks for watching.
No offense intended, btw. I'm not sure how I've "overlooked the purpose of your channel and your theories." Obviously you're a major presence in golf fitness and do a lot of good things for players. The criticism is limited only to the overstressing of "rotation" for the vast majority of players who have never learned to swing and release, have no idea what an actual swing in sync with the rotary elements feels like, etc., and certainly I don't mean that you generally do it. I mean that it's absolutely epidemic in modern golf instruction, not that you're a prime cause in that or even a participant in it, in the big picture. The other part of the criticism had to do with the purpose of the feet-together drill, which has been around for many decades and has done a lot of good for many players, up to and including tour players, always because it compels the player to try to find a manageable synced relationship between swinging and turning elements. Tour players used to use it quite a bit when they had gone off the rails in driving the body too hard at the ball, trying to force things, etc. Wish you nothing but good things in a class operation.
Tyler Parsons he literally wasnt even talking about your channel or theories. He was talking about your stress on rotation in this video. Don’t overlook his comment so there can be more productive discussions in the comments
yes i'm with you on this just from my own perspective as a 40 yr. 13 handicapper. i'm more of an arm swinger but just kind of let the rotation happen. i could never get the big rotation thing to work for me but i golf pretty good.
Don't twist your hips as fast as you can, unless you want to get a lower back injury and never play golf ever again. That does not produce the speed, it's in the arms. Plus ball speed is more important than swing speed unless you're a professional or a low handicapper
Thanks for the comment. However, if you are in proper shape and train correctly... rotating your hips isn’t going to cause back problems. Being unfit on the other hand. Do a bit more research, it is not about the arms. Start w the kinematic sequences. Yes, ball speed is more important than club head speed, but you can only achieve a ball speed 1.5 times that of swing speed. So when that is maxed out, as tour players do, then you must have more club head speed. But what do I know, I’ve only done years of training and research AND done this all myself. Keep swinging
Not true. Kenny was a long hitter, just not by today’s standards. Then again, Kenny was in a different group. The new age hit the gym and have worked on speed. Look at Justin Thomas for example. He increased his CHS an easy 5 mph working w me early on.
Youngsun Kim Kenny could and still can bomb it! His angle of attack, launch, spin, and smash factor were all perfect. The guy is he closest thing to a machine as I’ve seen.
When I was a spotter for ABC TV at the British Open I was given Kenny's group to follow.It was the most impressive display of driving I had ever seen, he is very straight and long but there is something about his ball flight that is really impressive. If the rest of his game was up to his driving he would have been in the record books but he is a hell of a player.
Tyler Parsons yes i remember he is a draw machine!!. i watch his swing over and over again where in the world his power comes from. i believe it comes from groundup.phenomenal!!
You’re right, he wasn’t a long ball “hotter”. He did have a lot of great stats back on his winning streak. A lot has changed in the game since then. This video is to show different things to make anyone swing faster and gain yardage. Which he did.

Shailesh Shah thanks for the support. I love being able to share my knowledge I have spent years learning to help golfers all over improve.
Super helpful, thanks for taking the time.
Kenny Perry is awesome great golfer and great man for doing a TH-cam video
Great drills! Your swing is so fast it looks like CGI. I’m amazed.
wow, some awesome training. i can relate to the slap shot from 50 yrs ago.
What an effing awesome exhibition of power...and a drill to go with it. Thank you! BTW, did follow Kenny at a recent event in Thousand Oaks....and he plain bombs it in actual competition. It appears effortless on the course...and here we can see all the work that's behind such a great swing.

Always loved kp’s swing.
Like watching a machine hit balls.
I’ve sat on the range for hours talking and watching. Never gets old.
Tyler Parsons even at his current age...not that he’s old, his swing is so athletic and powerful.
That hip exercise is bursting my brain! 😂. Now I'm on my way to my doctor's 😂
That firing of the hips exercise is going to send a lot of people to the chiropractor!
I tried these drills. My ball went 400 yards, my club went 250, my arms went 100.
and the whole time the ladies were looking at your pianist.
👍😂😂😂
Excellent.
Didn't know Kenny was known for hitting it long which equals higher club head speed
6:10 that dude is going to hurt himself

My favorite one ive found, i use this with orange whip
Great drills. Thanks.
Legend has it Kenny's spine is still sitting on the tee box grass.
GOOD GOLF VIDEO

Minimum 5x per day. Minimum. ;)
What a get TY! this is awesome!
Great stuff thx
Why are you not using the SuperSpeed Golf system to accomplish most of this?
Jerry Petersen as I stated below, this was back in 2015 before I was aware of Superspeed golf. Not sure when they officially launched the product. Regardless the exercises are extremely important and I would recommend adding them to anyone’s current program.

Yes, you definitely should be able to increase your speed even more. I’d also question how your flexibility and muscle activation currently is, addressing those usually creates speed too

Nice , it works!
DID KENNY LOSE HIS ABILITY TO SPEAK OR WHAT??
Lmao! I was waiting for him to say something!
he was too busy breathing
I'd end up in a wheelchair if I tried some of those exercises
Raymo Mull are you 98 and fat?
I always wonder why 90% of senior pro golfers have such huge guts... they are pro athletes. Tyler sure swings that club fast!
Jennifer
The fat guys are winning . Last year Couples, Monty , Perry and John Daly each won on the champions tour but the skinny guys dominate the winners circle. Langer won 7 times in 2017.
you cant workout hard enough to out burn a bad diet
"pro athletes".... I think that term gets thrown around too loosely lol
If American then most probably fat oversized granny. Else he might be fit like langer,
They have huge guts so their wives have some back support when they reverse cowgirl
Thé good golfer doesn’t seek for speed at all cost !
Kenny out of breath lol
Kenny needed an O2 tank there. Way to go Kenny!
