The 66-Year-Old Retired Cop Who Hits 260-Yard Drives... Swinging Slower Than His Playing Partners
Top-25 golf coach stumbles upon a "hidden sequence" that allows older golfers to gain 30-50 yards without adding speed, rotation, or strain. What he discovered changed everything he thought he knew about distance after 50.
Andrew Rice is a Top-25 ranked golf instructor who has coached over 50,000 amateur golfers in his 35-year career. He grew up in South Africa studying legends like Ernie Els and Gary Player.
I'll never forget the day I met him.
It was a Tuesday morning at a course outside Cape Town.
The guy was only about 5'7". Maybe 170 pounds soaking wet. And after years sitting in a patrol car, his hips and lower back were completely shot.
He could barely make a half turn.
Couldn't straighten his arms to get any extension.
And from what I could see, he wasn't generating more than 85 miles per hour of clubhead speed.
But here's what made me stop dead in my tracks...
He piped every single drive over 260 yards. And didn't miss a fairway.
At That Speed, The Ball Shouldn't Go That Far
I mean, this made no sense.
At 85 miles per hour, the ball is supposed to carry maybe 210-220 yards. That's what all the data says. That's what TrackMan says. That's what every launch monitor in the world says.
This guy was hitting it more than 40 yards further than he was "supposed" to.
And get this — he was swinging slower than I was.
Yet hitting it almost as long as me.
So after the round, I convinced him to let me analyze his swing on TrackMan and Gears. I did video analysis from every angle. I checked all his numbers.
He wasn't cheating the turn for more rotation.
He wasn't creating more length in his backswing.
And he definitely wasn't swinging faster than I thought.
But then I analyzed his swing side by side with some Champions Tour pros.
That's when I spotted it.
The Secret Was Hidden in Plain Sight This Whole Time
I'd just never seen it before.
But now, I couldn't unsee it.
This guy was doing something completely different with his swing. Something that had nothing to do with speed. Nothing to do with flexibility. Nothing to do with how far back he turned.
He was swinging smarter to send it further.
And that's how — without dropping his right foot back, without flaring his back foot, without keeping his left arm straight, or even swinging deep from the inside — he was able to hit 260-yard drives barely swinging over 80 miles per hour.
I knew right then that drives like that are what every golfer over 50 dreams of.

Why Everything You've Been Told About Distance Is Wrong
Look, I've been teaching golf for 35 years.
I've hosted over 1,000 golf schools for older players.
And I can tell you with 100% certainty that the distance advice golfers over 50 are getting is flat-out wrong.
They tell you to swing faster. (That just hurts your back.)
They tell you to use speed sticks. (Same problem.)
They tell you to drop your right foot back and flare your feet. (Temporary fix at best.)
They tell you to keep your left shoulder high and "hit up" on the ball. (Good luck doing that consistently.)
But here's what nobody tells you...
Every golfer over 50 has at least 30 yards stored in their swing right now.
It's not gone. It's not lost to Father Time. It's just trapped.
And the reason it's trapped is because you're not delivering your speed at the right moment in your swing.
That's The Hidden Culprit Nobody Talks About
See, most golfers waste their speed too early in the downswing.
They burn it up before impact.
So by the time the clubface actually hits the ball, there's nothing left.
That's why you can swing as hard as you want and still only hit it 200 yards.
That's why younger guys who swing the same speed as you are hitting it 30 yards past you.
And that's why Champions Tour pros like David Toms average 289 yards off the tee... swinging 15 miles per hour slower than younger PGA Tour pros hitting the same distance.
They're not stronger. They're not more flexible.
They're just swinging smarter.
I Decided to Put This Theory to The Test
After I discovered what that retired cop was doing, I threw out the playbook I'd been using for decades.
I put together a new sequence. A simple way to help my students gain accurate distance without adding swing speed.
But before I put my name on the line, I wanted to make absolutely sure this worked for guys who:
• Have lost some flexibility
• Have slower swing speeds
• Don't have picture-perfect swings
So I hosted an experimental group lesson with 30 golfers. All over the age of 50.
And I gave myself only one hour to get every golfer to swing smarter and gain at least 30 yards of distance.
Without adding speed. Without losing control.
Here's What Happened
Before we started, I asked the guys what they'd tried to gain distance.
I heard the same responses I've been hearing for decades:
"I keep my left shoulder high to stay behind it and hit up on the ball."
"I narrow my stance to get more turn."
"I aim right and try to feel like I'm throwing a softball underhand to hit a hooky power draw."
A few guys even said, "I'm using the speed stick, but swinging that hard puts a lot of stress on my lower back."
Total skepticism.
Nobody believed they could add a minimum of 30 yards in one practice session swinging the same speed — or even slower.
But when I proved I could swing slower than the first student and hit it 30 yards further...
That got their attention.
"That was slower than mine. Damn impressive. Slightly slower. Almost 30 yards longer."
FRED A.
Test Group Student
Their doubts quickly turned to shock and amazement.
One by one, this sequence got all of them to start launching baby draws that were carrying 30 yards longer and rolling out even further.
Here's what some of them said:
"The best thing Andrew taught me today is do not swing harder. Swing smarter. My swing speed was around 88, and he showed me that by doing what he wanted me to do, I could hit the ball 20 to 30 yards farther with the same amount of effort."
Steve P.
Test Group Student
"All I had to do was do what he said, and it worked. That's plus 20 yards at three miles an hour slower. I think within three balls I said, wow. I actually felt it."
GREG S.
Test Group Student
"For me to pick up 30 yards in a half hour? That's kind of amazing.
It's not magic. It's a fact."
Terrence W.
Test Group Student
One guy — a 75-year-old who hadn't hit a drive over 200 yards in years — started hitting back-to-back drives over 200 yards.
"I haven't had that in the last five years," he said, grinning ear to ear.
This Changes Everything for Golfers Over 50
Look, I get it.
You've probably tried everything.
You've watched the YouTube videos. You've read the golf magazines. You've maybe even taken lessons.
And nothing has worked.
But here's the thing...
None of those tips address the real problem.
They're all focused on swing speed. Or flexibility. Or trying to copy what the young guys do.
But the real problem — the hidden culprit — is that you're not delivering your speed at impact.
And once you fix that one thing, everything else falls into place.
You don't need to swing harder.
You don't need to be more flexible.
You don't need to hurt your back with speed training.
You just need to swing smarter.
And That's Exactly What Andrew Rice Shows You How to Do
In his new training, Andrew breaks down the exact sequence that retired cop was using.
The same sequence that helped 30 golfers over 50 gain at least 30 yards in less than one hour.
The same sequence that Champions Tour pros use to hit the ball 289 yards while swinging 15 miles per hour slower than PGA Tour pros.
He calls it the "Smart Distance System."
And it's specifically designed for golfers over 50 who:
• Are sick of losing distance every year
• Don't want to move up to the gold tees
• Want to out-drive their buddies again
• Are tired of hitting long clubs into greens
• Want a proven method that doesn't hurt their back
The training shows you step-by-step how to use this sequence.
It only takes about 15 minutes to learn.
And you can start using it the very next time you play.

Who Is This NOT For?
Look, I need to be straight with you.
This training is not for everyone.
If you're happy hitting it short, this isn't for you.
If you're okay moving up to the gold tees, this isn't for you.
If you think gaining distance after 50 is impossible, this definitely isn't for you.
But if you're sick and tired of being the shortest player in your group...
If you're not ready to give up on hitting it long and straight...
If you want to take back what Father Time stole from you...
Then this training could change your golfing life.
What Makes This Different from Everything Else?
Simple.
This is the only distance training that's 100% focused on swinging smarter — not harder.
It's not about speed sticks.
It's not about flexibility drills.
It's not about buying a new driver.
It's about maximizing the effectiveness of the swing you already have.
And delivering all your power into the back of the golf ball at the exact right moment.
That's it.
That's the secret.
And that's why guys like that 66-year-old retired cop can hit it 260 yards while barely swinging over 80 miles per hour.
"When I started working with Andrew, my driver was somewhere between 210, 215. The one thing he gave me was not only face control, but to use your body properly — sequencing. And since I've been doing that, I can put the ball out there 250 to 260, 90% of the time."

P.S. Remember that retired cop I told you about? The one hitting 260-yard drives at 85 mph? Here's what most golfers don't realize: he wasn't doing anything special with his backswing, his stance, or his grip. The secret was all in a 3-second window during his downswing that most golfers completely miss. Once you see what Andrew shows you in this training, you'll wonder why nobody ever told you about this before. Click here to watch before this presentation comes down.
