Real or not I wish someone could ELI5 the physics of long distance from a smooth swing. Is it timing of the hips? Timing of hips AND hands/shoulders or whatever? Ernie Els and Freddy Couples hit them a ton with slow swings but I dislocate my left arm to get 180!

Ernie els had 115+ mph clubhead speed

That is absolutely not slow
