When I go golfing(which is not very often because I cant drive yet) on some holes I can hit them good and other holes they don't go that far. Can anyone tell me what the proper way of shooting is???
P.S.-If you can respond quickly that would help because Im going to the driving range tomorow. Also, if anyone can find a video that would help alot
Thanks,
Rizzo

Welcome to Golf Rewind! You may want to ask your question in the Golf Tips area of the forum, someone should be able to help you there. Glad to have you join up and hope you enjoy your time here!
The easiest way to increase carry off the tee is to widen your stance by moving your back foot an inch or so away from the target. This tilts your spine away from the target and puts your head farther behind the ball. At impact, you'll then have the feeling of staying behind the ball and releasing the club through the shot, which will get the ball in the air easier. This is one of the things I showed Tiger Woods how to do when we started working together.
You can also tee the ball a fraction higher and play it farther forward in your stance for more carry. But widening your stance should be enough by itself to give you the hang time you're seeking.
