Sounds like it could be from an overuse injury in your Iliotibial Band. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iliotibial_band_syndrome Try flaring your left foot at address to relieve some of the tension in your swing. It makes sense to me that you're swinging harder now, hence the increased distance, so the added rotational force through impact into the finish is causing pain. Find someone in your area that does ART (www.activereleasetechnique.com) They will be able to treat it and keep it from coming back. Hope that helps *edited for better content

I play Titleist equipment for those who care. Not a staffer, but I love their stuff plus I'm going through TPI so it makes sense.
