Improve your drive with these simple setup tweaks
Struggling with distance or accuracy off the tee? Sometimes, the smallest changes to your setup can make the biggest difference, especially when it comes to using your driver.
In this short tip video, our PGA Professional Erica Quinn shares two key fundamentals that can help you gain greater control and distance off the tee.
Erica’s Top Tips for Driving Success:
✔️ Ball Position – Make sure the ball is positioned just inside your left heel (for right-handed players). This encourages cleaner contact and improved direction.
✔️ Upper Body Tilt – At setup, tilt your upper body slightly so your left shoulder sits higher than your right. This promotes an upward strike, helping you launch the ball higher and further.
These simple adjustments can lead to more consistent and confident drives.
