Check how your hands move during your swing.  This can add a lot of power and the ball will jump off your club face.\nhttp://www.pga.com/improve/tips/swing/improve_elliott062904.cfm\nhttp://www.golfswingguru.com/rss/article11.htm

lots of practice, depending on age you can also get into a weight training program to increase strength. If you can hit the ball the extra strength should be able to amplify anything you do. If I recall you step, turn your hips, swing with upper body. You can try to really over exaggerate those motions.

I used to be a very long hitter (with drivers) and not very good at iron shots. I spent a good amount of time in the driving range practicing on iron shots, that I can hit quality shorts from every iron (including 1 and 2 irons), but then I can't hit any of the woods anymore. There were five years long that I can't hit a solid driver shots until recently, my ex boss pointed out that I teed up too low (driver these day are 460 cc), and another friend pointed out that I position my tee too far back in the stand.\n\nI suddendly realise the important of ball positioning, and words like drivers are hit on the way up whilst irons are hit on the way down. I reposition my ball, tee up much higher, and now I have a very quality driver shots without sacrificing my iron shots.\n\nThe important is the swing is the same. If you could hit good iron shots (assuming your swing are OK), I suggest you try moving the ball forward in your stand as much as possible and try hit many short for a test in the range, and don't forget to tee up high for drivers.

Factors \n1.  Regular Tee Shot - New golfers or golfers who average over 95 should consider hitting a 3 wood off the tee.  They will have better control and maybe more distance.  Hit the driver on the holes it can't hurt you.  Use it on a wide open hole.  \n\n2.  When deciding what club to hit off the tee on a certain hole here are some things to consider:\n  a.  A tight short hole hit a 5 iron to the 150 yard mark.\n  b.  Long tight hole you may want to hit 3 wood.  Unless you have control over your driver only hit it when you feel good about it and it will save you a stroke.  A par 5 that you can't hit in 2.  Pick a club that you control and still hit the green in 3 shots.  A long par 4 you can't hit in 2 with a good drive, why risk it?\n\nThe funny thing is none of us like to play that way.  We want to hit driver.  We all could play a lot better if we stick will shots we can hit.  \n\nYou can find some good articles about what to use off the tee at www.pga.com improve your game section  \n  http://www.pga.com/improve/tips/techniques/improve_kirk082304.cfm\nhttp://www.pga.com/improve/tips/swing/improve_polites110104.cfm

Without getting new equipment, try and widen your stance a couple of inches.  Or you can work on swing speed, a drill you can try would be to grip the golf club on the opposite end (near the head) and swing, but you want to hear the whoosh sound at the bottom portion of the swing (when the shaft is parallel to the ground before impact to the same same spot after impact).  You can also increase strength and flexibility in the muscle groups for the golf swing.

Lefty or righty doesnt matter, welcome to this great game.\n\nI would say you should get a used set of clubs and regrip them and play untill you develope a fairly consistant swing, maybe about 5 rounds, Then get to your local golf pro and seek some advice and several lessons, do this befor you ingrain to many bad habits. \n\nAfter a few lessons you then may want to continue and now should get to a better set of clubs because there is a big difference in clubs. \n\nCavity back - more forgiving\nForged - better feedback on misshits\nBlades - maximum feedback on solid or misshits.\n\nAlso the shaft flex is important for your individual swing.\n\nAll these things can be checked out by your local pro.\n\nGood luck and good golfing.\n\nLeon

Many people have told you to work on your ability to walk.  (Actually 7,000 yards is close to 4 miles).\n\nI agree that you need to be in cardovacular shape to do that part.\n\nWhat is often not realized by beginning players is the amount of strength you need to play golf.  Particullarly abs, glutes, shoulders and lower back.  Do weigth training to do build these muscles, without losing you flexability.  To do this, high reps with low weights.  You are going to have 72 explosive motions over 4-5 hours.  (Okay I usuually have closer to 90 explosive motions.)\n\nTalk to your coach amount specifics.
