I read a driving tip that has worked for me, so I thought I would pass it along. The tip was from Steve Bann's publication Simply Golf Back to Basics. When you are setting up for your drive, turn your trailing foot outward about 30 degrees. Turn your inner foot -the one clossest to your club) out 10 degrees - this ought to facilitate turn rather than slide and also creates resistence as you apprach the top of your swing. The 30 degree change in my trailing foot worked for me, and I found the 10 degree change a little difficlult.
Also, I have been reading a lot about creating leverage with your clubs. In this sense the swing is more of a pulling motion, that coupled with hitting from the inside - I have tried using my body and less arrms - it is difficult and seems slow - but the ball goes farther. I reported here earlier that I was having trouble with my Taylor 540xd - and the problem was with me not the driver. I was swinging out of my shoes, and with an unstable lower body u are headed for a world of driving pain. I keep my lower body quiet, and I am doing much, much better - now on to the irons!
