We all are in the search for longer drives, and longer drives are the result of higher clubhead speed with solid ball contact. One without the other will not give you optimal distance with any club in your bag. Get them both and you'll no doubt be the longest hitter in your foursome.

There are many golf training aids, and new ones coming out every year promising more distance. We as golfers have gotten kind of numb to this type of advertising, but there are a few, select golf training aids, I do believe will increase both your driving distance and clubhead speed.

Using a weight, like a doughnut you use in baseball is a very affordable and effective way to add additional weight to your golf club to build up your golf specific strength, flexibility and clubhead speed.

I found a golf swing weight trainer that is perfect for any golfer, even in this bad economy. Most weighted golf clubs cost between $80-$100, and this portable little weight is only $30. Now what golfer wouldn't spend this amount for more yards?

The great thing is the portability factor AND you use it on YOUR OWN CLUB.@import url(http://www.golflink.com/community/js /rte/);

One of the most effective techniques for increasing power, leverage and solid ball compression in golf is wrist lag. You've heard it before, and one of the touring pros who does this very effectively is Sergio Garcia. Sergio holds his wrist #@!$ (lag) very late into impact, and he really compresses the golf ball. He also, is one of the longer hitters on tour. Another long hitter JB Holmes, has a tremendous amount of wrist lag even with his driver.

To create wrist lag in golf swing takes a lot of wrist flexibility and strength. The older golfer has lost a large amount of both. I have read studies that up to 75% of clubhead speed is generated from the release of lag in the wrists late in the swing. The club acts like a whip through the ball, swinging at high rates of speed.

Another golfer known for wrist lag is Ben Hogan, and in his time, he was considered the best ball striker in all of golf. His lag is nearly unmatched, although Sergio gives him a run for his money.

So the next time you're at the range, try to hold your right wrist angle longer into the downswing, but make sure to continue rotating your core aggressively through the ball. You'll be amazed at the compression and distance you'll get.
