Everyone talks about a bigger backswing for more distance, but how you control and deliver the club through impact may be the most crucial thing for amateurs.
Professional long driver Averee Dovsek explains how working on a bigger backswing may create a timing problem if your sequencing is not up to par in the first place.
A bigger backswing can equate to a few extra yards if the rest of the swing follows in a good rhythm. If a bigger backswing is throwing off your timing or the way you contact the ball, you may be better off sticking to a more orthodox parallel approach. Head to the range and iron out what best suits your game.
