Hi Paul. I’m 68YR, have a 24 handicap, and have been following your lessons for several years. I have never been able to drive the ball more than 210 average. Is it realistic for me to think I can hit it beyond 220y? I practice about twice a week (very specific drills—Not just “slamming balls”) and play about once a week weather permitting. I live in Albuquerque New Mexico.I’m retired, stretch daily and am active.Thanks!
