Why 90% Of Golfers CAN'T Hit Their Driver Straight & Far

PGA Coach Georgia Ball identifies three critical mistakes that prevent golfers from hitting long, straight drives. She demonstrates how to optimize ball position and shoulder tilt, improve rotation using the 'feet together' drill, and master clubface control through a 'gate' practice method.

• Position the ball in line with your lead heel and tilt your lead shoulder higher than your trail shoulder.
• Keep your sternum behind the ball throughout the driver swing to ensure an upward strike.
• Use the 'brush the ground' feel during the takeaway to maintain connection and a smooth path.
• Practice with a 'gate' made of head covers to provide immediate feedback on clubface angle at impact.
• Select an immediate target just in front of the ball to help align the clubface and visualize the start line.
