One of the keys to a great golf game,How to hit further from the tee Articles especially when you're playing at championship level courses, is hitting longer from the tee. Sure, it seems that many focus on the short game, and others work on finesse, but if you can launch the ball very far on your first stroke, you can cut down your strokes by 1/3 and in some cases by over 50%, garnering you a better overall score.There are two things that you should do to get a better opening swing and hit longer and farther. The first thing to do is lift weights. Yes, this is going to seem a bit odd, but if you can strengthen your biceps and triceps, alongside your forearms, you'll be able to pass the strength of your muscles through the club and along to the ball. Generating power in your swing requires muscle, and is just one of many tips.The second thing you should work on is the actual swing. You might think it's trivial, but it's important to try different grips, different stances, and different follow through options. Even if you really believe you're solid, and you know what you're doing, you can always use a little bit of improvement.If you believe that you're already at the top level, you'll quickly be surprised with lackluster performance. By keeping an open mind, and practicing often, you'll notice that your strokes will be fewer and you'll drive the ball so far, that you won't even need to have a solid short game. Don't get me wrong, you should always look to be a good all around player, but if you can make your first stroke massive, you'll be able to focus on other parts of your game and rise through the ranks fast.For a great instructional technique video on opening the club face go to :http://www.golfingswing.net/how-to-hit-further-from-the-tee.htmlAnd for more great free advice and videos on helping you get the golf swing that you desire then feel free to drop by my website at http://www.golfingswing.net
