A 5-Step Distance Drill

7:40 pm June 3, 2009

But what about distance? How do the pros send it flying with such
phenomenal distance?

The key is to turn the hips to the left during the downswing while, at
the same time, extending the right arm through the swing.

Here is a quick drill that can help you:

1. Start by teeing up the drive in your normal stance.

2. Now, set the ball down off of your left heel (opposite of your left
armpit).

3. Without moving, reach down & slide the ball towards your target
at approximately the same distance as the grip.

4. Tee up your ball there, which should be 10 to 12 inches closer to
the hole. Address the ball similarly to how would normally.

5. To hit it, you will have to move your hips to the left so that your
arms will be able to “reach” the ball (this will invariably cause your
right arm to extend).

This drill should be practiced at least 30 times before hitting the ball
in its normal position. By that time, you should gain significant
improvements in your distance.
