My students have included nationally-ranked juniors, touring pros, celebrities, and CEOs, but wherever you’re at on your golfing journey, my goal is always the same… to help YOU play your best golf!
I started playing competitive golf at a young age, ultimately reaching #3 in the California junior golf rankings – just behind another promising young golfer named Tiger Woods. I also played collegiate golf at the University of Southern California and professional golf on the Omega Asian Tour.

I'm working on it. 👏👏👏👍
Thanks Coach!
Mission accepted….. to be continued.
My man Eagle McMahon, nice vid
OMG! Look at the muscles in that kid's arms!!! Holy smoke! No wonder he hits the ball a mile.
This guy is ripped, that might help
he gets a full turn and is way more jacked than youre giving him credit for lol. he's probably one of the most ripped dudes on tour right now. all of that combined with tons of hard work and being able to hole a bunch of putts, and you have jake knapp. pretty simple. next to impossible to replicate for the average golfer.
the most important take away here for effortless power is: be young. be strong.
Great observations and in turn great instructions
"Typical amateur" shows a 90 year old Korean man. We amateurs deserve a better ambassador 😅
Plenty of breakdown foci in backswing, and sequencing well , down & thru, tough to do! Study & practice class!
What are Jake's wrists doing at transition? It looks like he gets a ton of power by letting his wrists collapse at the top way more than what anyone would teach…
Knapp is a giant muscly rubber band. Look at that full rotation. Look at his hands too. So much speed comes effortlessly from the hands. He is the total package for effortless looking power.
Now go watch a video on how extending the right elbow away from the body drains power lol 😮😅😂😂😂
“not a big guy”. Idk, I saw him in person and while he was not tall, the dude is ripped and muscle bound. He is an athlete.
That said, there does appear to be a lot of suppleness to his swing.
Great video, But wrong about Jake! He looks a powerful athlete to me, plus bouncers are not small and weak!
i just started with the speed sticks and I'm looking forward to adding this drill/stretch, thanks!
Why "effortless" power? The only way I can lose weight is to give "effort". I can live in the 210 range if I drop 20 on the scale…
Be rubber
He may not look big, but he’s strong and muscular!
Thanks Zach really good insight, as a 60 y.o. who always wants to improve I have subscribed! I love Jake's swing wow it is seemingly the way to swing, I see now that even if you possess a good elastic band, if you don't stretch it, it's not going to help!
The power comes from the bones of the feet just like from the frisbee guy. Or the Ben Hogan spike.
For aim and accuracy, repeatability, the freeing mind comes in the way,. unless you become a robot.
Like the Moe Norman Robot. LOLs 🙂 and his PEOM>

The stretch at the top also gives you time to move pressure to your lead foot. Most amateurs are still too much on the trail foot as the downswing starts.
Eagle McMahon's throw is a thing of beauty. I'm glad you used him as an example.
I’m sure you meant his ball speed is 190mph not swing speed
Does this apply to iron swings also?
Judging from his arms, he is very muscular! Most muscular guys can't swing well, but it's an asset he knows how to use. I DO like his fluid swing!
He’s not even a big guy he was just working as a bouncer 😂
Good insight. Fyi, that t-shirt wasn’t tight fitting. That’s how a shirt should fit, unlike your purple polo at the end.
Great
What about that flying right elbow? Like John Daley.
knapp is jacked like a small-school D1 Safety
I don't believe his over swing style can be consistent enough to win majors😅
Why Jake got 12 on that part 5 at Arnold Palmer invitation 😅
That was eagle, the disc golfer. He's right handed
