Quick Tip: Golf Asia Magazine this month....on how to drive longer

Wanting to share with all pea shooter like myself.

Happen to read an article in this magazine and tot it makes alot of sense.

After reading, mentally I already think I can gain 10m....which is a huge plus as mentally I think I can carry 185m now.

Try it out by reading it.


Disclaimer: I am no editor of the mag. I had not proven that. and I had not been really good at measuring my distance.....I just focus on score

1. Tee high
2. Swing upwards
3. Position ball as shown

How do we train to increase our driving distance and accuracy?

I have seen a guy ard 30s practicing at SCC hitting the mid section of the net with his driver for all hits! It shld easily be 230-240m carry.

Can share how you all train?

I m hitting ave. 190-200m and hoping achieve another 10-15m of carry.

I visit golf shop

To gain...
1 metre - use different tee... zero friction, champs, daiya...so many....

5metre - change grip. golf pride - lamkin - iomic - repeat as necessary

10metre - change shaft...that's why most manufacturers let u adjust your own driver.. always carry 3 shafts in your bag..minimum...

20metres - get a new driver.. a new driver is almost always more forgiving and longer. in the event it isn't, u just haven't hit the right spot yet...or time to get another one

that's my secret.... hehe

To gain 30m or more, hire a long drive champ to teach you ...   

To gain instant 20m...... 
Tee off from Red

Willy,

The number 1 marker is about 210m carry.
The number 2 marker is about 235m carry.

my swing thoughts on drives.. I drive about 200m... 

1) setup with slight weight on right and do a reverse K.. i.e bump hip forward.. and tilt spine slight more to the right.
2) do a wide arc swing.. keep the triangle until maybe midway
3) make sure you do a full turn of your shoulders back... then 
4) bump your hips to start the downswing
5) and hit up on the ball.. ball position should be front near the inside of the lead foot
6) ensure no tension in the arms.. and make sure you swing through the ball and not hit the ball...
7) make sure you finish the swing and have a full follow through.

for me.. I always work on.. 

1) Full backswing with a full shoulder swing
2) swing thru the ball.. and let it go. Dun hit the ball. 
3) full follow through
4) tempo critical

I gain a lot from this video.

Dreamer bro,

He was consistently hitting the net behind no.1 marker. At least a good 10-15m above the ground one.
