Need some Good Tips for Driving the Golf Ball From the Tee?
I started playing golf a few months ago and I've been able to make some pretty descent shots with every club EXCEPT Drivers. I don't know why. I've been to the driving range a few times and I cant even hit it to the 50. I got a tip from a golf pro who said I have a good swing but I need to not move my head. I tried that and I did a little bit better, but I still need a lot of help with it. Do yall have any good tips?

Lauren @ 9:59 am
hit the club on the middle of the ball as hard as you can
Jman @ 5:04 am
pratcie swining lik your a clock go from 6 to 9 to 12 back to 9 back to 6 all the way to 12 again and dont move your head keep your eye on the ball and bend your knees if you do this right you wont slice as much either
oldmansid @ 12:45 am
always wear your seat belt
mnvikes @ 1:04 pm
yeah, youre probably pulling your head up. keep staring at the ball and practice not moving your head and keeping your upper body still. just keep staring at your ball until after youre done swinging, then look up
Tbone @ 9:52 am
Make sure you actually see the club hit the ball. Also, follow through all the way. The rest takes a lot of practice.

Get to the driving range as often as possible, try positioning yourself differently in relation to the ball, try putting it a little further towards your back foot then towards the front, keep your
eye on the ball and try to keep your body steady and not lean forward or back while swinging. The best thing to do is practice
and try different things.

Hi! My name is Paula Creamer. You may have heard of me. I am a professional golf player. When you go to swing, hold your hands stiff, and arms straight. Make sure that they are so tight, you almost fell them hurt. Next, Pull the club back, and wack! Oh, and put the driver a little over the ball, like it is hovering it before you pull the club back. When you swing, the club will lower and woul will hit the ball really far! Take it from a pro!

P.S. Good Luck!

Well, it’s hard to say without more guidance. Are you topping the ball, or slicing it, hooking it, popping it up, blocking it, etc?
Generally, the driver is the hardest club in the bag to hit due to it having the lowest club loft. Do you hit a 3 wood straight and far? If so, use that club off the tee until you learn to hit the driver.
Also, have the ball teed up higher (use extra long tees) and align it anywhere inbetween your left foots big tow and left foot heel. I would recommend turning your left foot out (point your toe a little towards the fairway). As you take the club back keep your head down and try to create torque with your hips and just let your arms follow. When you get to the top of your backswing untwist your hips and let your arms and wrists “drop” into the ball. Your head should only come up naturally after contact by your follow through which should guide your head up.
If you just having a problem with contact (if you are topping it or hitting it of center, or not straight, etc), you can practice at a range. Take the club ONLY waist high on your backswing and then swing foward with a full follow through. This will help with your balance and timing and since the club is moving slower (work on the contact not how far you can hit it) you should be able to better see how the club head hits the ball. The key here is to work on contact and not swing speed or distance. If you hit it fine this way, then make a three quarter backswing and see if the problem persists. Doing this will help you isolate where your swing is breaking down (perhaps your arms, wrist, shoulders, head).
At last resort, take a lesson from a pga certified teaching pro.

You have to make sure you’re teeing the ball high enough for the driver. When you ground the club, the top of the driver should cut the ball in half. As you swing, concentrate on the bottom of the ball or the tee itself, to keep your head level.
If you are having trouble keeping your head “down”, it might be your posture at address–keeping your back bent over, and then trying to straighten it out at impact. Flex your knees more and strengthen your back.
Lastly, you really need to extend your arms throught the hitting zone to achieve the best results. Loosen your muscles up a bit, and keep that left arm striaght.

1. Tee the ball up so the top half of the ball is above your club head.
2. Don’t take a divot with your driver. You want to sweep the top of the grass instead.
3. Keep your head still and behind the ball.
4. Keep your lower body still.
5. Rotate your shoulders more.
6. Follow through. Don’t try to stop your swing.

Jman hit the nail on the head on this one.

My tip. Only focus on one these responses. Follow them all, you’re buggered! Go off and watch Spurs demolish United on Sunday instead… better day out. That’s my plan anyhow.
