Normal wood screws thread as they enter the wood, where lag screws require a hole to be drilled first. Lag screws also use a nut to add extra strength and security to help hold things together.

When you drive screws into wood without drilling pilot holes, you’re essentially pushing wood out of the way to make room for the screw.
