How to Hit a Golf Ball Far: Advance Your Game With These Tips

A common mistake people make that slows down their swing is just using their arms and shoulders to swing, when they should be using their whole body. Putting the force of your body into your swing increases its power and will send your ball much further than if you are just hitting it with the power of your arms. 

To get the strength of your entire body behind your swing, you need to lead with your hips. When you lead your swing with your hips, it creates a whip action in your arms and considerably increases the speed and power of the swing. To do this, think about beginning your downswing with your hips and following them through with your upper body. This might feel awkward at first, and you will feel like impact with the ball is delayed, but the more you do it, the better it will feel.
