One of the biggest things we all know but have a hard time with as male golfers is swinging too hard and trying to get too much distance on our drive. We step up to the ball and our testosterone starts flowing as we think our manhood is judged if we cannot outdrive everyone in the foursome, we reinforce this behavior with games like closest to the pin of the tee box. After our superman swing we yell “shit” as the ball hooks into the far woods. We all know how to straighten our tee shot yet everything changes when we step up to hit that shot. Below is a quote from a great article addressing this issue with factual information.
“In my younger days, I too was guilty of this habit. If we were standing on a 400-yard par-4 and you asked me how far I would like to hit my tee shot, I would have answered '400 yards.”
