Tips? Only two. Get lessons, to the tune of what you can afford, and practice while actually playing - on a golf course. To spend all your time practicing on a driving range will make you an expert driving range player. Pros can get away with lots of driving range time, because they play lots too. Us duffers need to play more to get better. Remember tip number one though. Lessons to correct the bad habits.

Our golf coach rarely lets us practice with our drivers. I think we should practice more with them. because if I could hit my driver strait down the fairway i wouldnt have to worry about chipping it out from behind the tree or whatever. I went out the other day and played a couple of holes. I went to the tee box and hit until i got a decent drive in the middle of the fairway. Then i played that ball all the way through and i made par on every hole that i got a decent drive on.

Drive for show......Putt for dough!
The driver is used for about 14 or 15 strokes (depending on the course) of your total score. The rest is irons and putters. So why is it at the driving range almost everyone I see just practices with the driver?

Maybe because they get the jitters from everyone watching & need to look like they belong on the course.

For working part time at a golf course, I cant even break 100. I can smack the ball, but good luck for me to find it. Terrible slice., cant sink a 10 put..... I hope it gets better.
