I’ve always been willing to hit my driver anywhere, but outside a tee. I’ve never hit after the driver when it’s tired, but once it tee is gone, it makes me nervous. However, there is something intriguing to light a driver out of the right road, following it over a PAR-5 green. If you want to try it, here’s what you need to know and how I go for it.
When (and when NO) to hit the driver from the deck
There is a straight and wrong time to do it. This is not a shot “Get out of trouble”. It is a calculated game and the conditions must be right.
- The lie should be perfect – a narrow coordinated road, sitting up, without sloping.
- No forced retention – You need a lot of space to run the ball up.
- You can lose a little – A pale or light cut is common, so prepare for this.
- Do not force – If you do not control all the boxes, reach a road wood or long iron.
Set up adjustments to the off -deck driver
You can’t hit this stroke like your normal driver from a tee. Some major changes include:
- prostitute: Move it slightly back In your attitude from where it would be a normal driver’s stroke, more like a 3-tree.
- KILLS: Stand a little closer to the ball and grab about an inch down from the top of the syllable.
- Leg of the leg: Show your front foot from the outside for more stability and pressure shift.
- Pressure: Lean a little more on your lead side to the address.
Execution
Once you are properly set, you will want to get a spine that is slightly shorter than normal to help you stay in control and avoid “help” the ball in the air.
The angle of attack is important when hitting a deck driver. You want to try to paint the ground with a flat strike until the discount. Don’t look for a starting departure like you with a teed-up driver.
Your Divot will be a thin, washing divot after contacting the ball. If you do not get a divotine, this is also acceptable. End up with the club getting the ball. It may not be a full high conclusion like you with your driver, but you will need something that takes you through the ball.
Wait for a pallor
Do not try to fight the cut. A pallor is normal when hitting the driver from the deck, the path is likely to be slightly out and the face is difficult to close without tee and normal ball position. A low follower with slightly faded rotation is usually the shape of the shot you will get.
The driver’s hit from the deck is not about forming a high draw over the green. Is a crashing runner that takes you 20-30 more yards than a 3-druru whether You hit it fried.

Final thoughts
The off -deck is not a shot for any round (or any golf player) but knowing how to do it (and when you try it) can add a fun and useful tool to your game. Whether it’s a windmill on a long par-5 or just something you want to try for the challenge, hitting the deck can be another tool to add to your game.
