Gain Five to Ten Yards

Problem

You need to hit the ball a few yards further.

Cure

For a longer backswing with an increase in the amount of arm swing and body turn, you need increase the clubhead speed by picking up the pace of your swing. You also should try to create more sidespin for a lower ball flight.

Therapy

The pace of your forward swing needs to be faster than normal. Place the ball slightly back, close your stance for swing with an In to Out Path, and loosen your grip to allow the clubface to close sooner upon impact for spin.
