One of the most common problems those new to playing the golf game have is lack of distance off the tee. I mean, the golf ball barely makes two hundred yards off the tee, which means it leaves a lot of golf to play to make the green for a par.

Golf is such a struggle when you can not hit the ball a sufficient distance off the tee to give yourself a chance of a decent score for each hole.

Frustration creeps in and it is easy to lose motivation at this point. You often find that beginners can hit the short irons a good distance but the long irons and the woods not very far. Why is this?

Well, it is to do with confidence in the club you are playing. Short irons are easy to play well. They have a generous amount of loft, and a shorter shaft length. Practice hitting these well and confidently, then work on the longer irons and three wood, rather than the driver. Concentrate on hitting down on the short iron shots, and this will ensure you hit the ball before the ground.

The driver and long irons need a different approach and philosophy to play them well. With these clubs you need a longer and slower swing, relying on the loft of the club to make the ball travel longer distances. It is difficult to adjust to playing these clubs well when you are new to the game.

It takes time and practice to be successful with the driver, but you will get better if you practice playing it often enough.
