DRIVER TIPS Course

driver_tip_money_shot
1. The Money Shot

See how starting the downswing with the lower body, from the ground up, will lead to more distance and consistent ball-striking. We use a fun prop – a $100.00 dollar bill. That should be enough to get your full attention!

 

2. Leverage is Power

I’ll show you where your leverage point is and how to use it to develop a more powerful swing. Hint: It’s not in your hands and arms, and it’s not about swinging harder.

 

3. Grip Pressure and Distance

There is a right grip pressure and wrong grip pressures. The Just Right grip pressure allows you to feel in control of the club no matter what your swing speed. Here’s how to find it. 

4. Lead With Your Elbow for Speed

Imagine a baseball pitcher on the mound. They generate velocity by leading the pitch with their elbow. Your golf swing works the same way. If you want to deliver maximum club head speed at the moment of impact, you should feel as though you are leading the downswing with your right elbow. That will help you hold lag and delay the release the same way a baseball pitcher snaps off a fastball.

 

5. Wider Swing Means More Distance

One of the biggest keys to more distance is developing a wider swing instead of a taller or vertical swing. Use this simple drill to maximize your swing width, which will in turn maximize your rotation and your club head speed.
