Don't think harder, but faster. Distance comes through club head speed. For every 1mph gain in speed you gain about 3 yards or so. When people think harder, they typically lose the overall balance of the swing.

To hit the same with both woods, you must be swinging the 5 wood faster than your driver. That is unless you are delofting your driver when you swing. Sounds like you trust your 5 wood and let it go, but throttle back on the driver fearing bad things will happen.

With the driver, get the ball placed off of your front foot's big toe. 5 wood, just off your heel.

Go to a launch monitor.

Good luck and keep swinging
