GENERATE POWER AT SETUP
We all want more power and distance. Regardless of whether you hit the ball 200 or 300 yards, adding an extra 10-15 yards to your driver gives any player confidence and a decisive advantage over the competition. Over the years as I have taught online golf lessons, many golfers have emailed me consistently with a breakdown of distance per club. They also provide where they would like to get to; usually 10-15 yards increase off the tee and from the fairway with their irons. The following advice is suggested to players who want an easy way to generate extra distance off the tee.I do not recommend this set-up from the fairway or around the green, but it will give you and extra 10-15 yards off the tee. The is a simple breakdown including different ways that power and distance is generated in our golf swing (I want you to understand what generates power):
- Solid Ball Contact: Not on heel or toe.
- Hand rotation through the impact zone.
- Weight shift through the swing (i.e. ball).
- Follow-Through position: This is more of a check point. Club face up at follow-through = less power.Club face down at follow-through = greater power.
