More Power, Effortlessly With 3 Tips
Are you hitting great golf shots but feeling like you could put a little more power behind the ball? I’ve got a couple of tips to solve this, however, expect to see a consistent 2-5 yard carry gain. Picking up an extra 10 – 20 yards is not realistic and if someone tells you the opposite, proceed with caution. The only way you can pick up mega yardage like that is in the gym, working out your legs and doing explosive compound exercises. My tips below will explain how to work with what you’ve got right now and pick up and extra 3-5 yards carry each club.
- The most important tip I can provide is, having the correct equipment that is fitted for you and your swing speed. I cannot stress this enough, if you the clubs do not match your swing, you are wasting your time. My swing speed on average is around 115, if I were to swing a regular flexed driver I Will Not see the maximum distance my swing is capable of. Make sure your shaft flex matches your swing speed.
- Don’t be afraid to use your legs. they are the largest group of muscles in our body. People who consistently hit the golf ball a long way have strong legs. You should feel a slight tension in your legs before you hit the golf ball and upon finishing the swing, you should squeeze the butt cheeks. This sounds like a small change but that alone can produce a couple extra mph of swing speed.
- Forget about LAG and swing the club. Lag will give you extra distance but will also have you hitting a recovery shot from the forest soon after. Lag is great for distance and bad for accuracy, I don’t know about you but I want both distance and accuracy. The simplest tip I can offer here is to “Swing the Club Head”, a simple example is, imagine you are hammering a nail thru the back of the ball with the club head.
