An Unintentional Discovery
Sometimes the best solution to a problem happens to be the simplest. In our quest to become two of the fastest swingers of a golf club in the world (including THE fastest, Club & Ball Speed World Record Setter & Speed Toad Cofounder Dr. Sam Attanasio) we have tried just about every speed training aid on the market since 2022.
The reason we tried so many options was we kept noticing the same problem, we would gain speed with the training aid, but not the same amount of speed with our actual driver. For example, we would gain 5 mph of "stick" speed with a training aid, but only 2 mph with our driver.
After long enough, we realized why the disconnect, because the shaft was different on the training aid than the shaft we use on our driver! Every driver shaft is unique in its weight, stiffness, kick point (where it flexes), and when it flexes in your swing. It's why we get fitted for a shaft, it fits our swing! Optimizing the timing and sequencing in your swing and shaft (the loading & unloading pattern) is one of the most critical pieces in producing efficient speed, distance, and accuracy.

HOW THE SPEED TOAD IS DIFFERENT
When we originally created prototypes of the Speed Toad of all different weights, anywhere between 80 grams to 220 grams, we had no intention of selling it as a retail product. We were simply looking for a training aid that would give us a competitive advantage in our speed training compared to our competition.
After 6 months of training, and learning that 140 grams was the optimal weight to be heavy enough to activate our driver shafts to promote better timing, yet light enough to swing 7 mph faster than our driver to train our Central Nervous System and fast twitch muscles to swing faster, we were SHOCKED at our speed gains. At this point, Dr. Attanasio had eclipsed 230 mph ball speed becoming just the seventh person in the world to ever reach that milestone, and Cofounder Bryce Mooney had reached 220 mph ball speed. After seeing these gains and how effective the Speed Toad was in helping both of us reach these milestones, we realized we had to bring the Speed Toad to market.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR GOLFERS
Longer drives equals lower scores, every stat that comes out confirms more distance equals more birdie opportunities. According to an Arccos Golf study, for every 10 yards gained with your driver, a golfer's handicap drops on average 1.8. Considering the average Speed Toad user gains 5.4 mph of real DRIVERclub speed in the first month alone (equivalent to roughly 15 yards), the Speed Toad has helped thousands of golfers already lower their scores and handicaps!
Speed training is the quickest way to lower scores. Not only will you gain speed and distance, but because you're trianing with your own driver shaft, your timing and sequencing will drastically improve which leads to better ball striking (even with your irons!) and better accuracy.
