Some
players who generate a great deal of club head speed still tend
to hit the ball too high off the tee. One remedy for
this is to switch to a less lofted driver that will direct
most of the force into hitting the ball forward, not upward.

Many
people think that using a three-quarter swing allows for more
control. The fact is that a full turn allows the various
body parts to work in proper sequence on the downswing.
The full turn helps maintain accuracy and distance.

Many
amateurs believe that a wide stance increases the swing turn,
when in fact the opposite is true. Narrowing your stance
to within shoulder distance should result in better tempo and
added control.

"Coming
over the top" on the downswing is a common fault among
many players. To remedy this, think of hitting the
inside quarter of the ball. This will encourage an
inside-out swing for straighter and longer shots.

To
help eliminate your slice, lay a club on the ground parallel
to your target line and on each swing try and take a divot
that flies 30 degrees to the right of the target line.
You'll soon feel your swing on the desired inside path
