Answering a malaskagolf.com member question about how to add distance to his drivers, I'm reminded of a lesson from a baseball idol of mine – Sandy Koufax.
This simple drill will help you get a feel for the looseness in your arms that will help you generate arm speed and club head speed.

Great tip Mike. Thank you. Playing tomorrow will try out your drill.
This is gold!
I just realized this today right before I saw this video. I realized it when I was pitching golf balls. I use an underhanded toss motion and I realized I can swing like that. I was very tight and my body was lunging at the ball I was trying to be in perfect positions and I actually hurt my lower back. Once I realized what mike was saying I was killing the ball with zero pain
Are you doing anything with your arms or shoulders during the swing or you just leaving them completely loosie goosie?
Mike. You are the friggin man! This should have been my very first golf lesson 20 years ago!!!
Please review my swing. First time I have done the loose body swing and it was the most effortless movement I have made(ever) with flush impact and my club hit all the key points in my swing naturally that I could not force to happen and my hips generated the speed without trying. WOW. Where to send???
The feeling I needed to make this work is, that I do not interfere with the club after thew first 5% of the downswing. I´ve been driving incredible. Told my friends and they said they are afraid the club will twist and buckle if they just let it hit the ball without interference – THAT was my epiphany – TRUST THE CLUB TO DO IT´S JOB
Koufax would of had a revelation not an epiphany!
Best golf instruction on the tube makes it so easy to understand the golf swing.

Mike…the way you explain the swing is so simple now that I understand the concept I am hitting with very little effort with maximum output..I am no longer a puller….thank you very much…If I ever see ya in person…the beer and hug would be on me….lol
One detail: DO NOT CHANGE YOUR GRIP PRESSURE AT ANY POINT.
