Krank Golf makes clubs for long hitters. If you go to their website, there are two good articles on the correct way to hit the ball.

Welcome to Golf Swing Thoughts.
I can only assume that you, like everyone else, are a golfer wanting to improve your swing. I know that I’ve had the “swing of the week” now for twenty years and keep seeking the swing that will make me a golf weekend superstar. Maybe I’ll find it someday.
That is why I’ve started this site. I’ll be sharing articles and video that I think are helpful – and not commercial. There are a lot of books and videos for sale – but not here.
