There are many ways to generate power in your golf swing. One of the most common is generating the lag of the club head on the down swing.

Happy Thanksgiving Canada!
Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to celebrate the many wonderful things in our lives. As people in Canada travel long distances to share in the festivities with family and friends, it is time to reflect and give thanks. Personally, I like Thanksgiving because of the friendships, joy and love expressed among best of friends, family, old acquaintances and people we are meeting for the first time.
By reflecting quietly, I realize how grateful I am for all those who have touched my life. Sometimes it is an encouraging word from a stranger, that unexpected phone call, or a random text from someone you are missing that reminds me of how truly blessed I am. Reaching out to those special people in our lives is a fantastic byproduct of Thanksgiving!
Thanksgiving is a special day. I wish you and your family all the best on this day of thanks! And if all else fails, remember:
I am a grateful golfer! Time to eat some turkey!
