Simple Golf Exercise To Develop A Powerful Impact Position For Longer Drives
Longer drives is the dream and focus for many golfers. Hitting that 300 yarder and having everyone talk about it later is justification you can hit it LONG.
The only problem is golfers are taking the wrong approach to achieve this added yardage. If you don’t strengthen your body specific to your swing, you will NOT hit longer drives!
Your muscular strength (and flexiblity) determine your ability to promote higher clubhead speed and power. As we age, we lose these physical attributes and watch our drives get shorter and shorter.
One critical part of your golf swing is impact. If you can get to and through impact in a powerful position you are well on your way to being the longest hitter in your foursome!
Here’s a simple exercise (see below) you can do in your home or even your office with exercise tubing that will turn you into a power machine on the golf course.
•Attach tubing to lower door jam.
•Turn sideways to the door and create some distance for added tension.
•Place right hand and handle on right hip as left hand pulls through impact.
•Let handle come back up, but don’t lose tension on tubing and repeat.
Benefits to Golf Swing:
•Improves strength and power specific to the follow through.
•Grooves proper swing path and sequence of motion with resistance.
•Strengthens all the muscles used in the golf swing, but much quicker with repeat pulls.
This is just one simple exercise of dozens that are in Mike Pedersen’s Ultimate Golf Fitness Manual over at PerformBetterGolf.com!

Not sure if that will help improve your path but it will groove a better impact position because the resistance will not allow the lead hand to break down

For golf, the best exercise is the long through-pull. It’s done with a combination of elastic bands and garlic extract. You smear the garlic on the elastic band, and then jam the band as far into your mouth as possible, then rip it back out forcefully and repeat until you don’t even like golf any more.
