Often beginning golfers think that the most important thing is to hit the ball as far as possible. Many golfers never quite get out of this mindset and this is one of the reasons why they will never get the distance that they are capable of hitting the ball.
The wise golfer will practice for accuracy first and concentrate on the distance once they have mastered the art of control.
There is no point hitting for distance off the tee if the ball is going to end up on another fairway or in the rough. All you will succeed in doing is make your following shots all the more difficult.
A shorter drive down the center of the fairway, can often set you up for a better approach shot and a lower round score.
As you practice smaller, more controlled swings, you will gain control of your shots sooner and you will progress to the longer distances faster. You will be learning correct techniques that will hold you in good stead for the rest of your playing career.
By developing accuracy first, and then lengthening the distance of your drives you will in fact hit the ball further.
It will be easier to train your body to develop the correct actions, if you start slowly with less distance, and these actions will always be needed when you progress to the longer drives.
After you master your swing, you can progress to a full swing knowing that you will have the control to hit the ball in the right direction. This combination of correct action and a full swing will ensure you will hit the ball further than would be possible if you had only aimed for the big shots from the outset.
If you find that your drives are going wayward, then it would be wise to focus on control, even if that means limiting your swing until you are hitting the ball straight.

4 Steps To The Perfect Golf Swing
Before you make your swing to hit the ball, it is best to have a routine that you can quickly go through in order to bring together your focus and mental energy.
Every player has their own way of approaching the ball before they take their swing.
Below is an example of a typical pre-shot routine that you can use for your personal use:
Step 1: Take one practice swing.
Many players, especially beginners, tend to overdo this first step by taking too many practice swings. Unfortunately, taking too many practice swings can make a person more nervous and less confident about the shot.
All you need is one decent practice swing before hitting the ball.
Keep it simple and try to keep your mind off of the swing as much as possible. Your goal is to simply limber up your arms and shoulders, not over-stressing the play.
Step 2: Visualize the outcome of the shot you wish to see.
Once you have loosened up with a practice swing, take a few steps back and mentally visualize the clubhead hitting the ball in perfect harmony with your desired aim.
Picture the ball flying through the air, with a perfect arc, and then landing exactly where you want it to go. Literally pretend that you are making a real shot, then step up to the ball for the real thing.
Step 3: Get your aim dialed in.
Now it is time to get your aim set up so that you can hit the ball directly to your desired landing spot. You must align yourself with the clubhead in accordance with the turf and the distance you need to reach your goal.
Once you are ready, select a second target that is a few feet in front of you, one that is in the direct line of fire. This second target makes it easier to hit the ball towards your destination.
Step 4: Fire!
At this point, you have taken one practice swing, visualized the entire shot in your mind, and have dialed in perfectly with your aim. It is now time to swing your club. Before you make your shot, however,be sure to stay limber by wiggling the clubhead a bit.
Once you're ready, it is time to get your backswing in motion and go
for the gold!
Happy Swinging
