#14: 240 MPH Ball Speed & Distance Secrets with World Long Drive Pros Sam Attanasio & Bryce Mooney

The Long Game is back, and this week Dave and Casey are joined by professional World Long Drive competitors Bryce Mooney and [Doctor!] Sam Attanasio for a deep dive into the world of speed/distance training. They also explain why adding distance is the single most important factor in lowering an amateur golfer’s handicap, how they became training partners, the importance of accuracy during competition, Sam becoming the second person ever to eclipse 240 MPH ball speed, and why former D1 baseball players are usually long hitters.

Sam and Bryce also walk us through Speed Toad, the speed training system they invented, what it's like to create and market a product to the golf industry, and how their competitors are catching up thanks to their own creation.

Plus, Casey tries to explain to Bryce and Sam what “laying up” is.
