HOW TO HIT DRIVER LONGER - (250 YARDS or More)

In this tip, I teach you how to hit the driver 250 yards or more. In order to do this, you need the right thoughts and the right ball flight. If so, anyone can hit it 250 or more.
Please visit the link below and I will send you free samples from my Body Swing book and video series: bodyswing.com/freesamples/
Everyone wants to hit their driver longer. The problem is, they try to swing as hard as they can. If this is you, you will never hit the driver any longer plus you will never be consistent.
By changing the way you think, you will finally see that 250 is possible. For most golfers, this would be more than enough distance. If you want even more you can use this technique to go for 300 yards into the future.
So 250 is the first goal. Be content with that for now. Get used to it. Then you will see that the game becomes so much easier which will lower your scores.
Lower scores means more confidence to hit your driver longer into the future.
It will feel new and different but if you want to hit the ball longer you need to get your hips powering the swing.

Great tutorial! I've practiced this philosophy for many years. I tell others, as Julius Boros used to say, "Swing Easy, Hit Hard". In addition to this, I use a 48" length driver (maximum allowable) to gain additional clubhead speed. It doesn't take long to adapt to the longer driver, but once you do, you'll be very pleased. I'm pushing 81 years of age, now drive 225 yards fairly consistently, and am working to 250. I will get there. Once again, great lesson!!!

@paulwilsongolf Жыл бұрын

Very good. Not sure about the 48" driver. You can swing club that are too long which actually loses you yardage. I would check that. At 81 you are doing great because most golfers I see at that age are nowhere near that. Keep up the good work.

I went into my history to find this video just so I could come back and say thanks. Watched this last night, bought a bucket of balls at the range after work today and BOOM! This works. I golfed 9 holes yesterday and my best drive was 188. Today at the range the ball was still in the air past the 200 yd marker, many of the shots had the right arc for a lot of roll out, too. I was hitting to the right on and off and caught myself with a bit of the “chicken wing” and upon correcting that, was smashing them pretty straight, too! I assumed I was just not strong enough to hit a drive over 200, but I just needed to loosen up and take it easy instead of trying to kill it. Thank you!

Paul, you are a gifted teacher. I coached baseball for many years and hitting was my expertise. Your first comment was exactly the same thing I told my kids. "Releasing" the club at impact only happens with loose wrists. One kid told me he felt like he was 'slapping' at the ball. He was right. And as much as I knew all of this I still locked my wrists. This video was a 'doh' moment for me. Thank you

@paulwilsongolf 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the kind words. I truly appreciate it. Yes, loose wrists = home run. Tight wrists = bunt. Slapping is a good term. My students say it snaps. So I use this to describe it to all students. Simple thought and feeling. Glad you see it and will be doing it. If so, you will be able to pop 250+ yard home runs right down the fairway.

I appreciate your no nonsense approach to golf instruction. I have taken professional lessons in the past and got hung up on the techniques and angles.... thinking too much. Your approach is one that you can adopt very easily. I need to work on eliminating the chicken wing to get me to 250. As a recent retiree, I want to play a lot of golf and enjoy it. You have helped me greatly with this goal. Thanks again and be well!

I'm still loving your videos Paul. Started working on your swing again a few weeks ago and I'm seeing distance improvements. My old arm swing was 240-270 driver carry, but inconsistent. I've always been longer than guys I play with. Last week my hip/leg swing was 230-240 carry driver, 140-150 carry 7 iron so I need to keep working on the hip speed. Pulling the left butt cheek back at transition does seem to boost speed. Your swing definitely hits the ball straighter. Almost crazy straight with a neutral grip.

@paulwilsongolf 3 жыл бұрын

Yes, crazy straight. Wait until you are just as long as before and crazy straight. That's when it's really fun. If you are feeling confident just add a little more legs and hips. There is timing involved so you fire too hard you will blow it right so slow back down. Before going all out all you have to do it hook 10 in a row. This speeds up the timing of the release. Then you can fire the lower super hard until you hit it straight. Try it or try slowly adding body. The choice is yours.

My brother started doing this after playing with a student from bear’s best. He bought the swing speed monitor and for years has been the longest at his club in NV. I then bought the swing machine system and enjoyed effortless golf with playing the fade at 58 years old. I send these videos to my buddies who don’t believe the distance off the tee in the GPS golf carts when they read less than 200 yards. Ez swings with loose wrists is the key to better golf as we grow old. It’s fun to measure off the distance with the cart GPS on hits that they feel were good and they don’t even get to 195. They will never learn.

@@paulwilsongolf a friend wouldn’t listen to me, but after getting lessons and the pro saying you need to “flip” the wrists at the exact right time he said it’s similar to what I was saying for years. I told him that it’s impossible to pray for exact timing. He practiced loose wrists for a month and he had his best round of driving in 30 years this past Thursday. I got a free lunch at Korean BBQ. Now for his putting!

Yes, you shouldn't be swinging out of your shoes ... ever. It's good that you can get that kind of distance so once you turn your arms off and loosen your wrists you will hit it just as far with a feeling of nothing.

Paul Wilson, Thanks for your reply. So I went to the range and tried throwing my driver (so to say) thru the ball . Took a few balls to find the right timing to roll my wrists thru impact. Once that was done, oh yes! My ball normally falls about 5 to 10 yards short of 205 flag. Suddenly I was about 20 feet above that flag, so I am guessing I added about 20+ yards to my carry distance. I tried adding mor oomph with my body but that had negative results and I lost distance and accuracy. I’ll watch more of your videos to get your thoughts on that. Meanwhile I’m thrilled with a more relaxed swing and my gain in yardage. I am a 76 year old rookie (2 years) and value your contribution to my quest for stardom - er, make that a better game. Thanks again!

@arnellmilhouse7057 2 жыл бұрын

Loose wrists that allow for lag via the wrist hinge enable greater potential energy. The takeaway torque generation (corkscrew rotational momentum - turning force - hips to shoulders) is met with a moment of lag which leads into a sharp reversal of rotational force which exponentially unloads the potential energy, converting it into kinetic energy. Swinging with the arms severely nullifies this capability. Interesting. Paul your videos have helped to conceptually UNDERSTAND the technical observational nature of golf. Many golf instructors obfuscate these details, which to me, are a sigh of release... making the golf epiphany (the DUH / OF COURSE moment) easier to ascertain. So many things came together for me today on the course. Thank you.

I have been watching several of your videos, regarding the grip, the loose wrists, head movement, and lag to name a few. I can report that what I have taken from your videos has really helped me improve my iron and fairway wood striking. I'm seeing 15 to 20 yards difference between my old hacking stab at the ball and this smooth as silk swing you are trying to teach me. BUT, I'm still not seeing a significant improvement off the tee with driver. The lag part from the top of the backswing still eludes me. I have a lot of work to do, and I am encouraged by the improvement I have seen, especially with long irons. Pretty sure my driver problem is mostly in my head, and it is centered on the movement of my hips from the 45 degree full cocked position to square to the ball at impact when I try to use lag on the longest club in the bag. LOL. "Help me, Obi Wan Kenobi..."

@paulwilsongolf 3 жыл бұрын

You are starting to get it which is good. Driver is tricky for most people. Keep in mind people want to hit and hit hard. Why not swing it at 50% and actually make the change. In your case it is releasing it from a lagged position. At 50% you have double the time. I would also be trying to roll it from the top and hook it. Once you get that you add body to straighten it out. So forget lag with driver for now. Go way slower and actually do it. I would roll it too to get the release working. If you do it slowly YOU"RE DOING IT. So slowly speed up only the lower body for more distance. Everyone wants it all right away. Sometimes you gotta take in stages. You can do it!

I found an actual Golf Book written by the Great Ben Hogan (it was an old book with a copyright of 1948), I believe it was entitled, "Power Golf." I had no idea golf books were that old. Anyway, guess what? He preaches the same thing you do. A video on KZfaq shows him emphasizing the fact that when you start the downswing, you lead with the hips NOT the arms and shoulders. Nice to know that even the great one's agree with you. Thank you Paul! Because of your teaching my game has improved by 3-5 strokes average.

@paulwilsongolf 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, I had that book back when I was about 15. It got me to start firing my legs and hips to hit the ball. Once I did I got a 50 yard gain on the first try so I kept doing it.

Hi Paul. Having great success with the swing. Taking it back in a certain way and checking positions in the back swing was all a waste of time for me. I'm having great success just cranking my shoulders around my spine angle letting the arms and hands go wherever they want then turning through hips then shoulders keeping the spine angle slightly tilted back. Hitting my irons flush and gained over 20 metres on my driver now carrying over 260m👍 Oh and I need to make sure I straighten the left leg coming through or I can hook it. That's how simple the swing is for me now👍😊

I was averaging 250 by using the tips from your “How to hit driver long and straight video”. If I try to hit longer I tense up and pull or pull hook the ball.

@paulwilsongolf 3 жыл бұрын

So stick to 250 for a while longer. Confidence breeds distance. So if you keep hitting it 250 all the time you will be able to put a little more legs and hips into it. Right now when you increase you are going all out. Your release is not timed for that fast a body move so if you speed up slowly you keep timing and slowly increase distance.

Relaxing my arms and grip pressure and rotating my body to sling my arms and club into the slot greatly changed my game for the better. I found an easy source of speed and it is like my body squares the clubface without even trying.

Hi Paul! I tried this today. My handicap is around 16 and used to fade and slice often. Carry was only around 240-250 after roll out 260-265. This changed my drives. I hit the 280 yard mark and roll out to 300 today. 3 times. Dead straight. This is the game changing lesson I've been looking for! Now if only I can get my irons and 50 yard+ shots under control I'd be gold! Subbed and notification bell activated!

Hi Paul; I have a simple driver drill that I began using that has really helped me with the proper swing. I'm not sure if you may have done a video with this or something similar but all it amounts to is practicing the driver swing on a slight uphill slope. It forces you to swing up & from a shallow downswing to prevent being steep & coming over the top. If there's a tee box that's sloped it's a perfect practice swing before you hit your driver.

@paulwilsongolf 2 жыл бұрын

That's okay just have to be careful not to hang back. That will give you the feeling so if you like it and it works for you then keep doing it. I did a tip on swinging up here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ppyJisxztdS1oX0.html

The comment about a neutral grip is priceless! I found I always hit better w/ a neutral grip, but thought it was wrong from watching other videos. I was always fighting w/ a strong (left hand) grip, which causes my left arm to chicken-wing. Thanks so much for this lesson!

@paulwilsongolf Жыл бұрын

Glad you see the neutral grip as a good thing. Truly mind boggling what is out there. A strong grip is a band aid to get you to hook it and/or deloft the club. I want you to release the club with a neutral grip because you know how to do it and put in a little work to learn it. You've got this so please keep doing it.

Hi Paul! I love your tips, you've definetely helped me build my swing for the last few years now. I can carry my driver around 220-230 yards feeling I'm swinging at 50%. But I don't really manage to increase the club head speed keeping the feeling of turned off arms. Actually, I can hit it longer (but not very consistantly) when I'm using my arms to help at impact... My goal is to get to 110-115mph clubhead speed. Greetings from France

@paulwilsongolf 3 жыл бұрын

You're going to increase clubhead speed by using your legs and hips to go faster. This will make your arms go faster. If you are using your arms, then this can lead to inconsistency.

Exactly what the pro instructed me to do, and it worked, about 10 years ago, and then I took hiatus from golf and I’m struggling to get that loose-wrist feeling, coupled with the compete hip turn. But my question today is, when I allow my arms to extend further out to get a wider arc, does that mean that I need to be gradually teeing the ball up a bit further away from my feet? How do I find the sweet spot of correct teeing distance for that wider arc? Thank you, - mark8

@paulwilsongolf 2 жыл бұрын

Glad you are back into golf and glad you found me. You only have one widest arc. So extend your arms at set up (don't go crazy and reach too far). Have the ball teed up in the middle of the face and if you let them go you should hit the middle each time. Here you go: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rZZ_pJNotK6Rj2Q.html
