Considering Tiger is the premier driver of the golf ball, it’s fitting to apply golf driving tips that Tiger employs to add yards and accuracy to all your drives!
Get Width With Your Driver
As you can see in the picture, he is instructing a golfer to get more width on his backswing. This is a one of Tigers top secret weapons is his amazing width in his golf swing.
When I say width, I mean your hands as far away from your chest as possible. This creates amazing leverage going into your downswing.
Wide Stance For Power Golf Driving
Another thing Tiger does is get a fairly wide stance so he can limit his lower body movement creating a maximum “x-factor” for greater torque in his unbelievably strong core area (thank you golf strength training).
This wide stance also minimizes sliding laterally in your golf swing. If you are a slider, increase your width in your stance and you’ll see an instant improvement.
Strengthen Your Grip
Tiger use to have a very strong grip, which is the left rotated over the top of the shaft more. He has since brought it back to almost neutral, but for many amateurs, strengthening your grip is an easy way to promote agressive rotation of the clubface through impact. Just make sure to work your ABT’s (always be turning) with your body to prevent a wicked stap hook.
Start Down With Aggressive Hip Rotation
Tigers hip rotation on the downswing is unmatched on tour. He can do this because of his extreme core rotational strength and flexibility. Even though you may not be as fit as Tiger, you can still try to rotate your hips aggressive on the downswing while trying to create lag behind you with your club.
What this does is created a high level of torque in your core, which translates into a MUCH higher clubhead speed and distance.
