This year is my second year of golfing but i'm not as good  as some though. Are there any ways to help me improve like some basic drills or possibly other clubs. I hit the farthest with my Tec+ 25 degree 5 wood. I know i'm suppose to hit farthest with my Tec+ 10.5 degree driver but it goes roughly 5-15 feet. My wood goes 12-20 feet. My other clubs are Tec+ 15 degree 3 wood, Tec+ 6 iron, Tec+ 7 iron, Tec+ 8 iron, Tec+ 9 iron, Tec+ putter simaler to the Black Velvet 110 Men's Right Hand Golf Putter with the arrow in the middle. I would like a hybrid but i'm not sure what to swap it out for or even what type of hybrid. Please help me become better

I'm sorry, but those distances just don't compute....5-15 FEET???

He calculates his distances based on how far he can throw the ball with each club in his other hand.

Welcome to the forum @Kptkoas .  There are a lot of way to improve.  One is to play a lot!  But other ways include smart practice.  We have a section here on this forum call Member Swings .  You can post a video of your swing with any club.  Folks will look at your swing an post suggestions on improvement to work on.

We also have a section call Swing Thoughts were @iacas and @mvmac , our two resident top notch instructors, post information on the golf swing and other parts of the game.  Those posts are excellent reads and help you understand how to approach improving.  The thread I would start with is:

The 5 Simple Keys are a set of commonalities that all good golf swings have. It is not a type of swing or a swing method.  Using the 5SKs you can incrementally improve your swing.  Getting better is a process and it can take time.  But it is worth it because we all want to be good at this game we love to play.  There are a bunch of great videos in that thread as well as the other threads in the Swing Thoughts section.

If you have any questions about using the site, check out our "Using the Site" section , and Little Things New Users can learn.

Here are some other great threads and more information on the sections I mentioned above.
