Distance and Direction

Almost everyone wants to drive the ball with more distance and better direction. Well that sounds nice and easy. In order to do that one would need to strike the ball more squarely in the center of the club face while maximizing their club head speed, sounds simple right.

There are several ways to improve these two areas of your game. The first is to improve your dynamic balance and weight transfer. Secondly, you would need to improve your swing path and plane. Thirdly, one would need to hold the angle longer on the downswing. Forth, is to have a flat left wrist at impact with the shaft of the golf club tilted ten degrees toward the target while your hips are a mere 30 degrees open. Fifth, allowing your body and club to release naturally to a balanced finished position.

Now this can require a lot of work and in the end will be far more consistent. But in the short term there are several new drivers that can assist you and golf technology is getting better every year.

Seriously, this time of the year and throughout the winter is a perfect time to improve your golf swing and prepare your golf game for the spring of next year.
