    Story of my life; one step behind.

    It's also probably been mentioned that the further you hit it the greater your chances of missing the fairway. If you aim down the center of the fairway and you're off line by 4 degrees, at 200 yards you are 14 yards off line. At 300 yards you are 21 yards off line and playing from the rough. Course designers tend to narrow the fairways after 200 or so yards to give the long hitters a little more challenge.

    I'm happy just to be outside chasing a golf ball.

    There's an item to remember when golfing.----Even though your swing should be repeatable, it is different off the tee versus off the deck. Off the deck, you'll want to hit down on the ball, whereas off the tee, you"ll want to shallow and sweep the ball. ---If you hit driver the way you hit irons you will be popping the ball up and/or losing massive distance.==Ish==

    The following chart shows why it is important to create distance off the tee---

    Pulling your trail arm elbow in and creating lag in your swing by starting the swing with the body first straightens out shots and adds distance.

    If you're right handed and you drop your right elbow, you're gonna slice the spit out of the drive buddy. That's golf 101.
    Post a link.

    I am currently working on neck stretching/rotating in order to keep my eye on the ball as I swing while turning my torso and and shoulders more. I am getting better speed the more I turn the top half of my body relative to the lower half, but will be better off if I can keep my head in place.

    4 swings out of 75 were from 120 to 124 mph today
    The vast majority of swings were in the 106 to 114 mph category.
    No swings were below 102mph.
