Golf Long Drive...
Learn from Shivas Irons

Driving is without doubt the most macho part of the game. Nothing makes the others gasp more than with this magical shot. I was personally never a long driving master but the more that I learn about ‘true gravity’, the easier it gets to sail them out there. There is of course another good reason why my longest drive has improved from an ordinary 230yds to 270+yds. Yes you guessed it, technology. As Jack Nicklaus often says after one of his big bombs, “Well folks, that’s why we all play titanium!”
The square-shaped Callaway Fusion FT-i Driver . Take a look at the newest of these titanium drivers to hit the market.
Gary Player recently stated that he gained tremendous distance when these wonder clubs became available and it would have made his tournament play easier. I certainly agree, 15 years ago I would have had tour length mixing my present knowledge and this equipment.
It is however a hard fact of life that many have benefited from this technology and although I have managed to catch up somewhat, the very long hitters have also benefited. Which brings me nicely to my favorite driving tip. Please allow me to start with this, "Don’t waste any energy on the back swing and let the legs run the show."

I will then turn to tip number two, "Don’t hurry the downswing." As a matter of fact, when it comes to creating maximum power in the downswing, smooth leg movement is also the key.

However before you even think about hitting a long drive, it is important to make the proper preparation. In Murphy’s ‘Golf in the Kingdom’, the author is effected by Shivas Irons’s ‘kind of black magic’ theories, where he creates energy streamers in his pre-shot routine along which the ball will travel. This is referred to as the ‘next manifesting plane’.
Jack Nicklaus is and was notorious for creating these energy streamers. He defied all laws of averages, especially on the greens, when it came to playing in Majors. He visualized every shot before attempting it and in his own way created these fields with his psyche. So what is the secret to creating these energy streamers? Visualization!

This brings us to the follow-through, which in chronological order is the last but not least important part of the swing. I have a colleague who swears by the smoothness of the follow-through and claims that with a little patience all the discrepancies of the swing can be tackled by this tip.

If you digest these four tips you will be well on your way to adding 40yds to your average drive. If you chunk it, that’s 10yds for each tip. With the technology of titanium you can add another 10yds to this total. I personally achieved these results from these tips without over exerting myself on the driving range.

| Build your own Website! About 2 years ago I began to wonder how I could create a profitable website and stumbled upon a system called SBI. If you are interested in making money online, or want to create your own website, I highly recommend this service. Without their fantastic training and tools my 'Golf Tips' site would not have been possible.
