Why Can Pros Drive So Much Longer?

You might think that I’m going to answer the title question in great detail, but I’m not. Instead, I’m going to explain why this is such a ridiculous question.

The main reason that professionals can drive the golf ball longer and more accurately than the average golfer is because they are professionals. They have trained their whole lives to hit the ball at the perfect angle, they have worked their muscles for the sole purpose of hitting a golf ball, and they have gain comfortability and confidence with their clubs.

While you may have gained one of those attributes, you most likely have not perfected all three.

“Why can pro golfers drive so much longer” is no better a question than “why can NBA guards shoot so much better” or “why can NFL quarterbacks throw so much better.” Next time you find yourself asking that question please remember that it’s not a $500 golf club that does the trick, it’s years of dedicated practice and training.
