Maximum Golf Driving Distance - Play Smarter
By Norman Stanley
Every golfer wants more driving distance and it's obvious by the way any new driver on the market which promises extra yardage is snapped up.
It seems like every day sees the release of a new club which will give longer, straighter performance is announced, but is that the answer?
Increasing your golf driving distance is more than buying a new club and at around $400 perhaps not the cheapest option. I promise you there is not a club out there that will turn you into Tiger Woods overnight. [GO TO GOLF DRIVER STORE]

So how do you gain an extra ten, fifteen or twenty yards on your tee shot? The answer is technique.
A friend of mine started playing golf at fifteen and is now a very good player, winning quite a few tournaments every year and he told me a story which sums this article up nicely.
When he first took up the game, his father, a scratch player took him to the driving range to get some idea before scattering the proper course with golf balls.
Dan, the father showed Jon how to hold a club, how to set up to the ball and pointed down the range and said "Hit the fence at the back."
The fence was 250 yards away but being fifteen and able to do anything, like any teenager, Jon fired ball after ball at the fence.
Jon is a big lad but the closest he got was about fifty yards short. A bucket and a half of golf balls lay between the 150 and 200 yard markers. Jon was beat, sweat poured down his back and his arms ached.
"You do it!" he said to Dan. Dan set up to the ball and in seemingly slow motion he took his swing. The ball soared through the air and over the back fence.
Jon was flabbergasted. How did the old man hit it so far when he barely swung his club? Technique.
Hitting a golf ball is an expression which should be banned because it puts the focus in the wrong place. The ball merely has to be in the way of your swing and it will fly.
To increase your golf driving distance practice your swing and forget everything about hitting the ball. The perfect, most powerful swing is just that, a swing and the golf ball just happens to get in the way.
Do not try to hit the ball harder just hit it smarter. Focus on the smoothness and tempo of your particular golf swing and distance will come.
