Yes. Your tempo effects timing and rhythm. If your tempo is too quick, the timing of the release of the club would be late. Conversely, a slow tempo could mean an early release and or even a blocked shot if you’re slow turning through the shot. If you walk fast or talk fast, your tempo might be better if its quick. If you are a slow mover or are deliberate, a slower tempo might work better for you. After all that said, when you are working on drills, you may not work in your natural tempo because you are focused on your swing thoughts and new movements. You may be rushing things a bit trying to get a certain result (usually distance). Try to eliminate over swinging, try to make the movements slowly until you can make them without thinking about them. Forget the distance. When you get to where you can hit the ball the direction you want, the distance will come around.
