If you are a relative new comer to the game of golf. Then chances are one of the things that appealed you to golf before you took the game up was those shots you see from the T.V. where you get some one like Rory Mcllroy one of these young guns, and he gives it the old big swing and he boots the ball 300 yards down the middle of the fairway, and you think that's the game for me I'm going to give that a guy and you probably realized by now that it's maybe not quite as simple as it looks on the telly. It looks simple doesn't it your standing still the ball standing still nothing's moving out on the target it should be an easy game but driving the ball particularly can provide one of the frustration for golf is that it should be easy to hitting the ball along way off the tee with a driver can be very awkward but it's also one of the fundamentally important parts of being a good golfer.
Cause if you can get the ball off the tee and get it in play on most holes you actually walk down the fairway shoulders back head up really looking. Now to enjoy the game and to get your neck shot near the green but if you're struggling the ball off the tee and you top it 10 yards sideways into the rough certainly the head slopes the bottom lip comes out games going to be an awful lot less enjoyable and less baseball off the tee. Now it doesn't mean that you have to hit driver on every cheat just because we call it your tee shots or your drive doesn't mean it always has to be with your driver because quite often the drive is going to be the most difficult club to use because it's very long in that house not got a great deal of loft on it. No this next section we're going to talk about driving tips but that doesn't specifically mean it's always with driver sometimes it might be with a 3 wood or a fairway would it not be with a hybrid club it might even be with an eye and it's just a process of getting the ball off the tee out of the fairway down. The green as regularly as possible and sort of with the best reliability and consistently to get the ball in play if you can improve how you get the ball in play you'll enjoy your golf an awful lot more.
