Not sure how to address this, but I have these odd drives that are significantly longer than average and I know there's a way of harnessing that as I improve my form.
I've been working on technique, throwing flat as possible . . . just a simple extended reach-back with one step. Most of my favored drivers are stable to understable. If I really "go for it" on a drive, I can turnover any of my usual drivers . . . least a little. My drives average 225 to 250.
The last hole on my home course is fairly open . . . OB road on the left with decorative, sentinal trees lining it and leading to a basket at 360 feet. My usual play is a stable drive to the right of the trees so the drive glides clear, leaving me with a clean 100-foot approach. But every now and then (like this morning with a Q-JLS), I'll turn the disc over significantly and it just goes and goes . . . over 300 feet, for sure. I don't think I'm rotating my wrist, or grip-locking. Maybe OAT?
I'd love to nail it down so I can make those drives in the direction I MEAN to throw. Because I'm pretty certain I should be throwing 50 to 75 feet (at least) more than I do.
