How To Crush The Ball

Every golfer wants to hit it longer. If I asked 100 golfers "do they want to hit it longer", all of them would say yes. What have you tried so far that hasn't worked? Golf lessons? New driver? Hot ProV1 "long ball"? Or maybe one of the $100 plus golf training aids that come out every other week? I know you have a few of these in your garage gathering dust.

It's Your Body

The only thing left is your body. Your body swings the club. If your body has physical limitations such as a reduced backswing, making it impossible to achieve the desired 90 degree shoulder turn with 45 degrees of hip turn, which is what we call the optimal "x-factor"; your swing speed will be too slow causing a power leak.

My program, content and resources are not just based on theories: everything has been field-tested, refined and proven successful on the course.

Steps to Achieving a Long Golf Drive

Strengthen the middle section of your body, also known as your "core." If your core is weak you will not be able to create, store and release torque and power in the backswing and downswing. A stronger core can generate a much higher level of golf swing speed.

To have a full and tension-free backswing, you must have sufficient posture (especially in your upper back). So many times we see golfers with a humped-back. That completely restricts ones ability to turn back. Strengthen your postural muscles and stretch your pectorals for a balance of optimal upper back posture.

Here is a simple exercise you can do right now. Doing it just a couple of times a week will make an improvement in your driving distance quickly.

When you consider what you pay for golfing equipment, and even just to play one round, the small investment in golf fitness DVDs to improve your game, reduce your handicap and increase your overall level of fitness and strength for golf, is a drop in the ocean. It’s well worth the small investment.
