Are You Hitting Your Driver As Far As You Should

Scotty Scheffler is one of the best players on the planet, so when he starts missing right with the driver, it’s not just gossip, it’s a case study. We use his off-the-tee struggles to get into the real reasons great drivers disappear: equipment changes, sponsor pressure, and the psychology of standing over a tee shot when you don’t fully trust what the club will do.

From there, we zoom out to the rest of us. We talk about why constantly tinkering with a driver can keep you from ever building a “relationship” with it, how tiny differences in build and feel can matter more than the launch monitor suggests, and why the safe-looking 3-wood choice is often a myth. If you don’t practice 3-wood off a tee, don’t expect it to magically find fairways when it counts. Better driving isn’t only about distance. It’s about setting your scoring floor and avoiding recovery shots you never practice.

Then we go deep on golf swing speed training using force plates and ground reaction forces. We break down vertical force, torque, de-weighting, and why force precedes motion, plus the lead-leg and low-point fixes that help you add speed without losing control. We also tackle the “hit up on it” driver obsession, attack angle realities from TrackMan data, and why chasing a bigger upward angle can blow up dispersion even if it adds a few yards.

If you want to hit the driver farther and straighter with a plan you can actually practice, this one is for you. Subscribe, share it with your golf group, and leave a review if it helps, what’s your biggest driver miss right now?
