How to Gain Clubhead Speed
Three easy moves that will give your drives more oomph
By Roger Gunn

This story is for you if...
• You consistently hit the fairway, but your accuracy comes with a loss of distance.
• You'd give anything to drive the ball 10 to 15 yards farther.
The Situation
You're on the tee of a very long hole, but so far this round your driver swing hasn't had much pop.
The Solution
Focus on the three areas at right to gas up your swing to get more yards off the tee.
HOW TO DO IT
SPEED FACTOR 1: TURN YOUR BACK TO THE TARGET
Make a complete shoulder turn during your backswing. You'll know your shoulder turn is full when you feel your left shoulder turn underneath your chin and your back is pointing directly at the target.
