Jump height is the number everyone screenshots. It’s not the one I’m most interested in for golf.

What tends to line up with clubhead speed in the research is how much force a golfer puts into the ground and how long they apply it. That’s called impulse. Two golfers can jump the same height and produce it very differently.

So a jump test is only as useful as what you read from it. Height tells you the outcome. The force trace tells you how they got there, and that’s what shapes the program.

Strength builds the capacity. The swing still has to use it, which is why the gym and the range need to be talking to each other.

Have you ever tested your jump? What did you look at?
