• First of all, you need to understand two things – the driver is the longest shaft of the clubs that are in use, therefore make sure that your swing is shallow and not steep. Steeping your driver will spoil your drive.

  Also, another thing you need to keep in mind is that the driver possesses the minimum amount of loft that is present in clubs (other than the putter). So make sure that you use it for full swings and to get the maximum ascend on your drive.

• Select your driver according to your drive speed. An example can be that the players whose swing speed is low must use drivers which have high launch, with approximately 13 degrees of loft or more.
• Make sure that you tee the ball a bit higher. Almost half the portion of the ball must be above the top of your club.
• Here’s something we have to say about your stance while driving – take it an inch or two wider than the width of your shoulders.
• To make your swings shallower, make sure that you take your stance in such a way that your right hand is outside your chin. Also, stand more upright than in your other strokes and put your hands a bit away from your body than the irons.
• Your spine must be tilted away from the target and almost 60% of your weight should be on the foot which is away from the target (like on your right one if you are right-handed).
• To attain a smooth and a shallow, try hovering the head of your club above the ground which is behind the ball.
• Sweep the golf ball in such a way that your club isn’t steep.
• Practice drives frequently to make it your strong point. You can use the various driving drills available.

Apart from following these, make sure that you watch and observe when your partners and opponents play their drives. Looking at the way they play can help you a lot in knowing the result of a particular stroke. Also, you can take their help to correct any mistakes or difficulties that you might be facing.
