Hi. My name's Sonny. And even when I bomb a drive, it only goes two forty. No matter what I do, I can't hit the ball far. I'm six feet two hundred pounds, but even when I get a hold of my drive, it still only goes about two forty. I I went and got fitted thinking my club was the problem, and I still hit the same exact shitty drive that I did before I spent $1,600 on a driver. I try to work on engaging my lower body, but no matter what I do, I still only swing with my arms. I can't really grasp the concept of turning my hips at impact, but I still tell people I don't understand why I don't get any distance. Distance is one of the coolest things you can have. So when you're 50 yards behind your buddies every time, it kinda hurts you as a man. Even when I swing as hard as I can and really get a good of one, if I break two fifty, it's a miracle. The golf course is a lot longer when you're short off the tier, so the days out there have become pretty long for me. I don't think I'll ever stop crushing tier yard drives. I think it's just all I got in the rank. And no matter how many YouTube videos I watch, lessons I take, and drivers I get fitted for, I'm not sure if I'll ever find any distance.
