I was spending some time with a friend yesterday out on the driving range, when I decided to do the drill I suggested yesterday. I noticed that the sound always started halfway down, instead of just past impact. I did it for a few swings and realized that I could get the swooshing noise just right if I focused on the middle of my forward swing being the fastest, not impact. I love the feeling of seeing how late the speed can come in my golf swing, because it helps me feel aggressive and still in control.
Patience is a big key in allowing this to happen. The better you do it, the more confident you will become. The more confident you become, the easier it will be to let the momentum of the club gather during the transition and downswing. Just remember, a slow backswing and transition equals fast impact.

Michael - just wanted you to know I teed it up on Saturday and went to the driving range first to try out your tip. It really helped me find a rhythm and I hit the ball really well. If not for some shoddy putting and succumbing to the 100+ heat on the last few holes, I would have broke 80. Alas, 80 was my score, but I still felt real good about my ball striking versus previous rounds. Thanks for the help! Play well this week - Todd
