Three-Speed Balance Ladder

Hit three balls at 50% speed, then 75%, then full speed, holding a balanced finish after each one before moving up.

Duration: 10 min
Reps: 3 rounds of 3 balls
Equipment: club
Level: Advanced

How to do it

Hit 3 balls at about 50% swing speed, holding a balanced finish after each one.
Move up to 75% speed for 3 balls, holding the same finish check.
Move up to full speed for 3 balls, holding the finish for 3 seconds each time.
If balance breaks at any level, drop back down a level before trying again.
Repeat the full ladder 3 times.

Goal

Find the swing speed where balance breaks down, then build back up without losing it.

Feel cue

Feel your finish stay just as solid at 75% speed as it was at 50%.

Mistake to avoid

Jumping straight back to full speed after one wobble instead of dropping back down a level and rebuilding — forcing through a lost-balance rep just grooves the fall.
