Turn and ‘watch’ your ball to bomb the longest drives of your life

**Turn and ‘Watch’ Your Ball to Bomb the Longest Drives of Your Life**

In the pursuit of distance off the tee, many golfers neglect a crucial step in their swing: watching the ball. By simply turning and focusing on the ball after impact, golfers can generate more clubhead speed and accuracy, resulting in longer and straighter drives.

Studies have shown that golfers who turn and watch their ball hit drives that average 10-15 yards longer than those who do not. This technique allows golfers to follow the ball’s flight path, gauge the distance and direction, and make necessary adjustments on subsequent shots.
