Swoosh for more distance.

Take the driver, turn it over, hold it by the clubhead end and start making swings. You’ll be able to hear the “whipping” sound without a whole lot of effort. This is the key.

On the backswing, make sure you have a folded right elbow with a hinged wrists, and on the follow-through, you have a folded left elbow with a re-hinge.

This technique will train you to produce maximum distance with minimal effort. That wrist hinge — not your muscles and effort — is what creates the whip and the speed. When you see people swing it so smooth and hit it so far, that’s a big part of why that happens.

A person who wants to keep too much control is more likely to fail to hinge the wrists, and whatever distance they produce comes from just how hard they can muscle it.
