How To Hit Driver?

Set the ball just inside your lead heel

Use a tee height that lets about half the ball sit above the driver crown

Stand with feet shoulder-width apart or slightly wider

Tilt your upper body slightly away from the target

Keep most of your weight balanced, with a little more on your trail side at address

Grip the club firmly but not tightly

Align your shoulders, hips, and feet parallel to the target line

Start the takeaway low and smooth

Turn your shoulders on the backswing

Keep your lead arm extended without locking it rigidly

Shift pressure toward your lead side during the downswing

Let your hips start the downswing before your hands

Keep your head steady through impact

Swing through the ball, not at it

Finish with your chest facing the target

Hold your balanced finish

Focus on making solid contact before trying to swing harder

Practice with half swings before full swings

Check that the clubface is square at impact

Keep your tempo smooth and controlled

Use a driver loft that matches your swing speed
