1. Adding distance

This is a great drill to help you find extra speed without losing the flow or control in your swing. Turn your driver upside down so you are gripping just below the clubhead. As you move through the downswing, listen for the swish. It should be as smooth and loud as possible through impact. This drill gives you the feeling of ‘letting go’ that you need to commit to your drives and hit the ball further without losing control.

2. Flexibility

Devoting time to improving your flexibility is one of the simplest ways to unlock extra distance. A good way to do this is to get a resistance band, as shown here, and put it under your left foot and into your left hand. Swing to the top and hold the position - you should feel the stretch in your core muscles. From there, move through to the finish and do the same thing. This will help improve both the flexibility and stability in your swing.
