Tilt Back

Problem

You want to gain a little more distance.

Cure

Instead of contacting the ball at the bottom of your swing, try to catch it just as you begin your follow through. Because you accelerate through the ball, once your arms pass the bottom of your swing, the clubhead will be moving even faster as it starts moving up, into the follow through.

Therapy

Remember to stay behind the ball. Tilt your body back so your angle of approach will be downward and then upward through the ball so you can catch the ball during the upswing for added power.
