Golf Tips: Step In for More Power
We golfers tend to make things worse when we are attempting to summon up a little more power and distance. When trying to swing harder or hit it farther our golf swings suffer all sorts of breakdowns and technique problems. Usually those issues result in LESS distance and power, not more. They also can result in less accuracy, as in hitting that awful banana ball slice, weakly to the right.
In the video below our pro Kris Moe shows us a drill we can use to gain more power. Simply by stepping into the shot "Happy Gilmore" style, we can understand the weight shift and the tempo of the golf swing.

The step-into move also helps prevent the flipping of the arms and wrists, and helps prevent slicing.
Give it a shot. Step into some practice on the range to get the feel.
