The average golf swing speed is 75-85 mph. To improve golf swing speed and increase distance there are important elements to consider.

Time to increase your golf swing speed.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Track your current golf swing speed so you know where you stand.

    This can be done at a golf pro shop or by using a golf swing speed meter. Improving your impact speed through the golf ball starts with learning about your current golf swing.

  2. Step 2

    Experiment with using a shorter golf club off the tee.

    Most drivers used by amateurs are 45" and over. Longer hitting professional golfers use drivers that are 45" and under. Having greater control of the club head can increase golf swing speed. You'll have less speed killing golf shots off of the toe and heel of the club head.

  3. Step 3

    Avoid swinging the golf club too hard for more distance off the tee.

    Bucking up and clenching your arms for that longer drive has an adverse effect on your golf swing speed. There is no way to maintain proper golf swing mechanics if you muscle up.

  4. Step 4

    Develop a golf strength training program to increase golf swing speed.

    Strength training for golf is different for every player's age and ability. It is no secret that golfers need to develop strength for a rotational swing. Focus on core training and flexibility to use golf strength training to improve golf swing speed.
