Many people will tell you that the golf swing does not change from club to club, but in fact due to the varying lengths and weight of each club the swing has to change some. The driver golf swing is no different because you are using a very long and light golf club, which can lead to wild tee shots if you are not careful. Here I am going to give you a few tips to make sure that you keep your swing in check with the driver.
First off you need to have a wide stance with the driver. A wider stance is going to enable you to start your swing from a more solid base and hit better tee shots. Ideally you want your stance to be just a bit wider than shoulder width apart, and your feet and shoulders square to the target line.
Next you need to make sure that you take the club back lower to the ground and slower than most other clubs. The reason for this is the driver golf swing gets out of tempo a lot easier than a swing with an iron. So starting the club back low and slow will promote a great tempo which will no doubt lead to better tee shots and more consistency.
Last but not least you need to make sure that you have a smooth transition to the downswing. This means that you are not going to start your downswing with your hands, but instead you should start the downswing by turning your hips slightly to the left. This allows the club to drop from the inside which will produce much longer and straighter drives.
Use these tips to master the driver golf swing just like I did, and you can take 5-10 or more strokes off of your game!
