To Hit Driver Straight Always Do This Before Every Swing | Paul Azinger Golf Secrets

12-time PGA Tour winner Paul Azinger shares his 'unconventional' secrets for driving accuracy and power. He emphasizes a relaxed grip, staying behind the ball at impact, and avoiding the 'death sentence' of forced lag by focusing on natural weight transfer and trajectory control.

• Maintain a relaxed grip with the club in the fingers to avoid tension and 'powerless effort'.
• Set up behind the ball and ensure your weight moves forward through the shot rather than falling back.
• Lag should be a natural result of loading the club and clearing the body, not a forced downward pull.
• Focus on controlling your ball's trajectory (obsessing over the flight path) to naturally eliminate left and right misses.
• Use specific pre-swing thoughts: 'Arms relaxed, turn level' for the backswing and 'lower body first' for the downswing.
