Too slow
Too fast

To find your ideal swing timing, you should start with the slowest 

timing and try it for a few swings. When the tempo graph is 

consistently green for both your backswing and downswing 

times, you can move up to the next timing. When you find a 

timing that is comfortable, you can use it to achieve more 

consistent swings and performance.
