Oh guys it's PGA golf professional and this is the complete golf driver swing guide this is a follow on from the complete golf swing guide we're now going to talk about the driver and this is a five part series to help every single one of you hit you drive.
A batter whether you're an established player or you are brand new to the game we follow these five videos all the videos are up here in the corner already this is really gonna help you understand the difference between an iron and a driver and how you're gonna hit your driver a lot better we're gonna talk about the overview.
First which is this talking about the main principles about hitting driver the next video is going to talk about setup then we're gonna go into backswing impact and then the follow-through solos to cover but we're gonna first talk about the importance of understanding what a driver golf swing is compared to an iron swing and a big thing with driver is we swing at maximum speed with driver because it's the longest golf that we carry in our bag and we're also presented with the least amount of loft for a full swing and both those two characteristics alone makes this golf shot a little bit harder to accomplish but with the correct setup in the correct mindset in how we're going to hit the golf shot with driver.
We're gonna see way more success way more success the big principles around hitting driver and this is the difference between irons and driver iron is very much a down striking golf swing we want to hit down on that golf ball hit the ball first take the ground after but with driver we have the ball teed up already that's a huge advantage and we have to then also hit more up into the golf ball we want to get that Golf Club moving up into the back of the ball to sweep the ball off the tee making good contact to the head and making sure that our golf swing is creating the correct amount of power to help you hit the ball as far as you need to hit it so the big thing to start off with I really want you to get this I'm innocent probably the main point overall of that we're gonna do is driver we want to hit more on the way up irons.
We want to hit more on the way down and that's the biggest differences between an iron swing and a driver swing how we set up factors and influences how we hit the golf shop to set up which is the next video is really key the golf swing itself it's about power we want to create power in a golf swing and there's nothing more important than actually swinging the golf club fully and creating adequate power to get the golf ball propelling forward with long distance sometimes hitting the drivers softer can actually cause more bad issues for me the big thing with driver as long as you can speak swing in control and this is the important bit you can swing as fast as you need to swing but always try and swing in control so driver swing as I mentioned before it's much more of an op hit that way we have our body tilted further away which we'll cover a little bit more detail in setup we want to create speed we want to sweep that ball off the tee creating power creating distance.
