If your golf swing feels smooth but powerless… if your transition feels synced but you’re not gaining speed… you might be missing the most important move in the downswing — the “spark.”
In this video, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb from Athletic Motion Golf break down the difference between a golf swing with no spark and a powerful, properly sequenced transition that creates effortless speed. Most amateur golfers overturn in the backswing, start everything down together, and completely miss the early lower-body acceleration that elite players use. That’s why you’re stuck with inconsistent contact, poor kinematic sequence, and lost distance.
We’ll show you: - What a “no spark” swing looks like - Why tour players generate speed differently - How to create separation between upper and lower body - A simple drill to train early pelvic acceleration - How braking forces create real clubhead speed
This drill forces your body to organize sooner, apply the brakes correctly, and create the dynamic stretch that produces power. When done correctly, you’ll see sharper deceleration in the pelvis, better sequencing, and that “crack the whip” effect every golfer wants.
If your swing looks good on camera but doesn’t feel dynamic or powerful, this is likely the missing link.
You need mechanics. You need sequencing. But most importantly, you need the spark.
Try this drill for a few sessions and watch how quickly your transition changes.
