How to Maximize Your Driving Distance: The Two-Second Tweak

🔑Starting the club head in the middle of your stance and having the ball forward can improve launch and decrease spin, leading to longer drives.

💡Keeping the lead shoulder higher than the trail shoulder creates a slight spine tilt, maintaining the angle through impact for optimal impact conditions.

🚀Swinging from the inside can help move the lowest point of the swing behind the ball, resulting in an upward angle of attack and increased distance.

🔄Moving the club too far back or letting the shoulders become level can cause the lowest point to move ahead, resulting in a downward angle of attack and decreased distance.

🔥Even a small change in setup and swing can lead to significant improvements in distance off the tee.

Why is it important to start the club head in the middle of your stance?

—Starting the club head in the middle of your stance helps ensure that the lowest point of your swing is behind the ball, allowing for an upward angle of attack and increased distance.

What does it mean to have the lead shoulder higher than the trail shoulder?

—Having the lead shoulder higher than the trail shoulder creates a slight spine tilt, maintaining the angle through impact for optimal impact conditions.

Why is it beneficial to swing from the inside?

—Swinging from the inside helps move the lowest point of the swing behind the ball, resulting in an upward angle of attack and increased distance.

What happens if the club is moved too far back or the shoulders become level?

—If the club is moved too far back or the shoulders become level, the lowest point of the swing moves ahead of the ball, resulting in a downward angle of attack and decreased distance.

How much of a difference can this two-second tweak make in driving distance?

—Even a small change in setup and swing can lead to significant improvements in distance off the tee, potentially adding 30-50 yards to your drives.
