Tips on How to Drive Long Off the Tee:
- One of the best ways to score lower is to gain more golf distance off the tee. When you have a shorter distance to the green you have more chance to score par or better. Of course, you need accuracy as well as distance; otherwise you will be in a worse situation.
- Tee the ball up higher and position it off your leading foot's instep so that you hit the ball on the upswing
- Don't hit the ball with all your power - use a steady rhythm and work on increasing your swing speed
- Use the right shaft flex for your swing speed - use a flexible shaft if you have a lower swing speed
- Cock your wrists early on the backswing and un-cock them as late as possible on the downswing
- Turn your shoulders a full 90 degrees for maximum distance
