Description

When it comes to maximizing your driver distance, there is only one place to look first - contact. Where you are hitting the ball on the face of the driver is the NUMBER 1 determinant on how far you will hit the ball. Granted, without a fast clubhead speed you won't hit the ball very far, but you can have all the clubhead speed in the world and miss the sweet spot by a 1/4" and lose 20+ yards on your drive. Hit the ball in the center of the club face with reasonable launch parameters, which I will discuss in detail throughout the series, and you can hit the ball very far with less speed. So, let's talk some science....

Video Practice Points
  • Ball speed is more important than any other factor in determining how far you hit the ball
  • "Smash factor" is the measure of how much club head speed is translated into ball speed
  • Perfect smash factor is 1.5 - anything over 1.45 is great, over 1.4 is still good
  • Measure yours with two swing speed radars - set up one for club head speed & another pointing straight up under the ball path
  • Individual swings may vary, but the setup will be very helpful for calculating averages
  • Draw a dot on the ball with a dry-erase marker to check where you're hitting on the club face
