If you asked most golfers if they would like to hit the ball further off the tee with the driver 99.9% are going to say yeah they would love to hit the ball further off the tee. So let us look at the key elements that make up that distance. Club head speed is going to be a massive factor of this side. How fast the club head is traveling as it comes into impact is going to be a big decision maker on how far the ball goes but there's no point having that club at moving really quickly into was the impact area if we don't waste that speed by launching the ball at the wrong trajectory. So too high or more important in this case too large so if you feel like you're in your heart if you make in the fastest possible you're hitting the ball as hard as you can get you're not hitting the ball as far as your playing partners or as far view makes it might be because the ball flight he's too low. There's 2 key elements that make up that ball flight low and how it's created the 1st thing is the angle on the club face and the launch of the ball. So if the ball flight he's setting off too low it's going to be down into the ground if the ball flight he's setting off too high he might shoot too high and stall and that really is called the launch angle 0 launch angle is one that rolls across the floor doesn't fly up in the air 90 degree launch angle too steep too high of 3 straight up in the air here and the perfect lawn for a driver is different for different swing speeds.
So some professional golfers would launch the ball around about 10 to 15 degrees some high handicap golfers need to launch the ball between 15 and 20 degrees. It's all relative but you can use radar tracking technology or the advice of a P.G.A. club fitter or professional to work out what you're up to launch is. The next thing to consider with those launch conditions is also the optimum amount of back spin. So how much back spin is on the ball. So when you hits a ball out if it doesn't have enough backspin it will fall out of the sky it kind of looks like it's got top spin but a golf ball never really has top spin until it's rolling. You know like a tennis shot where you top spin and it goes over the net and and dies and golf ball sometimes looks like it's still not. It doesn't have top spin it just doesn't have enough back spin or the times when you have a golf ball it flies off and it really climbs up into the sky and looks like it has a stall that goes in it goes forward that could be too much box thing. So optimizing the backspin conditions on optimizing your launch is really important to maximizing the best drive you can hit.
