Want a driver swing that feels more controlled? Blair O’Neal teaches two simple keys. Create a little more space at address and then use an “80 percent” swing feel to improve tempo and start finding the sweet spot more often.

Smooth like butta!
One more question! I see so many golfers...especially pros...with their feet really wide at address (I was recently a walking scorer at the Champions Tour James Hardie Boca event and walked one day with Ben Crane...the nicest man...who just turned 50....and his feet are REALLY WIDE at address with the driver). Your stance seems to be about even with the outside of your shoulders...much more natural (but your front toe is not turned out, something my teaching pro encourages to facilitate the turn). Loss of flexibility is a big deal for us 'seniors' (ouch), and I've been encouraged to narrow my stance...but others disagree. Thoughts?
Blair. Your tips are so great and so simple to implement. No gimmicks. Here's a wish (and hope)! Could you expand your 'swing like "butta" to irons? I celebrate my 60th year of learning golf...started at age 10 (so guess what age I'm turning!)... and have seldom (if ever) hit a shot pure...mostly from the fairway. I always feel clenched up/tense, with a grip like a vice! One pro has told me to smile :). Another wants be to feel loose and free...which I do that a lot better when the ball is sitting up in the rough instead of on the fairway with a tight lie. Thanks Blair!!!
great advise
Please turn up the volume on all of GolfPass videos. I can barely hear them with my volume at 100%. Thank you.
