I am roughly 5' 8" and weigh 150 pounds. Not a big guy by any stretch of the imagination. (Beats when I was 5'8" and 125 lbs forever!) As such, I am not tall enough to generate massive clubhead speed for distance naturally and I am not heavy enough to get any weight behind the ball for any distance. So what's a guy to do? How can I generate more power in my game? I have no problem just playing shorter tees when I'm out on my own - I have nothing to prove to anyone - but when I have scrambles and tournaments they are usually one tee box farther back than where I normally will play and then I am left at a disadvantage and not as much help for the team, etc.
For some references:
Avg driver distance: around 240-250 yds (If I kill it and the stars all align I might get 265 yds)
5 iron avg: 165 yds
7 iron avg: 145 yds
9 iron avg: 125 yds
SW avg: 95 yds
I am seeing a little more distance out of the Srizon Z Star since I just started playing it so those distances might be a little short now, and I'm sure I could get more distance from some different irons (I love my EVO blades, but they aren't exactly powerful) but I also need to milk what I can from my body.
Any tips or drills? I know there are some smaller guys on tour that can kill it anyway - how do they do it?
