Regulating Your Ball Flight

A lot of people ask me how far we hit the clubs in our bag. Well I can tell you when I started playing profesionally in 1989 and on the Tour in 1991, the 9-iron was going 130-135 yards. For me now with modern equipment, my 9-iron means a shot of 150 yards. My irons are one inch longer than standard because I'm 6ft 5 in. The TaylorMade R9 Max Driver are also 2-3 degrees more upright than standard which makes them play a bit longer.

But the real different for professionals is the introduction of new Rules on grooves for the Tour pro. It has made us think much more about regulating our ball flight. These new Rules don't allow us to spin the ball as much as we used to so we have to achieve the same results by hitting the ball higher or lower, and working it left or right, which isn't as easy with the modern ball which is developed to fly straighter.

So if you want to hit the ball a bit higher put the TaylorMade R7 XR Driver a little more forward in your stance. To hit a lower one, the hands have to lead so have the ball position a little more further back, so the face of the club is slightly de-lofted.

Remember too that when playing into the wind, being able to regulate your ball flight is very important. My advice is always don't try to hit the ball much harder, just make sure you position it

a little further back in your stance. This way you will control the flight by hitting it earlier in the swing path.

TaylorMade Tour Burner Driver left Handed features a smaller, lighter and crown (by 12%) that distributes more mass lower the head. This new design helps shots take off higher, and with less spin, than they do with the previous Burner. The payoff is greater distance. Tests by our exclusive equipm"at 100 mph swing speed"] due to 1.5-degree higher launch.

And down wind when you want to give it some air move it slightly up (forward) in your stance. But take special care because there's a tendency to hit it fat, just like I did then!
