**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.

“The misconception is that you look away from the ball after impact,” says renowned golf instructor Hank Haney. “But the opposite is true. By turning and watching the flight of the ball, you’re essentially continuing the swing and maintaining momentum.”

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.
