To begin with most professional as well as amateur golfers desire to increase their distance. Furthermore it is very important to tee off with the drive to go as far as possible towards the fairway. The power of your drive off the tee has the potential to determine how many more approaches, pitches or chips you\u2019ll have to hit to put the ball on the green. Therefore it is advisable to cover as much distance as possible.<\/p>\n
In fact understanding and mastering the following basic skills will help you improve your distance and golf game in general.<\/p>\n
The club you use in playing golf matters when it comes to gaining distance. Moreover the length of the shaft in your driver is important. However, if the driver is too long it could lead to inconsistency and hitting the sweet spot could prove difficult.
\nThe things you should look out for when purchasing a golf club is the club\u2019s loft, the weight and the flexibility of the shaft. If you can spend the money, opt for a club fitting specialist to measure your drive and swing to recommend the right fittings for you.<\/p>\n
You will need to carry out exercise to improve your flexibility. Actually poor flexibility or lack of flexibility will make it difficult for you to make a full shoulder during the backswing.<\/p>\n
The distance a swing covers is largely dependent on the hip speed. In fact without the proper hip speed, the chance of making a long distance is very slim. Engage in exercises that improve hip rotation. Also, make sure to do some warm-up before every game.<\/p>\n
Some golfers prefer a square stance while others prefer launching the ball from a steep angle. In general the latter may work with hitting irons but is a poor choice to use with your drives. Make sure to pick a stance that works for you and stick with it.<\/p>\n
According to the latest technology being used to track balls in flight, it was revealed that excellent long drivers do not hit down on the ball to cover more distance.<\/p>\n
A simple trick to this is to draw the grip towards your thigh. Also, your downswing should be done from the inside out.<\/p>\n
The following tips will help you to get better at distance control for shots within hundred metres. In this way it will give you more birdie opportunities as well as par saves.<\/p>\n
If you aren\u2019t consistently hitting the ball in the centre of the face club, distance control with wedges would be a big problem.<\/p>\n
While engaging in your pre shots routine, connect with your sense of feel. As a result this is more of a sensing rather than a thinking attitude.<\/p>\n
The lighter your hands the more distance control you are likely to have. Because of that you will need light pressure to ease tension in your arms and shoulders to improve your consistency.<\/p>\n
Nowadays it is highly recommended that you spend a good time practicing on short game. Try experiment with the above ideas to get a better distance control.<\/p>\n
