Though many golfers think that putter is more important in the game of golf (because of more strokes at a course) , still the driver has a tremendously big impact. The point it simple – in case you are able to get off the tee box long and accurately, your chances to shoot a low score on a given hole increase greatly.
Let’s sum up the most important tips for the successful hit of the driver.
When you are setting up to hit the driver, remember the following. The feet slightly wider apart than normal; outside of the tips of your shoulders. Your back foot is perpendicular to the swing line. That is why when hitting the driver (as your feet are wider) you can feel to to turn the back to outward slightly, so that some of the stress is taken off the back knee.
Basically the back swing should be similar to any other club. Don’t take the club back faster, because increasing the tempo of your back swing can throw of many other important and crucial elements of the golf swing. And generated the club head speed on the downswing.
Stay “on” or “over the ball when you take back the club on your back swing. It is prohibited for your hips to slide backwards with the club; they should turn, not slide. Your front foot stays on the ground during the back swing.
The club is taken back straight and away, causing a wide arc. But do not forget to stay over the ball. You can do that by shifting the weight to the back foot without sliding the body.
The setup and back swing make up the ultimate list of elements that should be changed between using the driver and other shots. Other issues – like shoulders turn further, chin tucks into chin deeper, down swing is faster – take place, but they take place automatically, if you do everything mentioned above the proper way.
