PROPER ALIGNMENT IN GOLF

A consistent golf swing and a consistent golf game can only be built on proper alignment.

. To check your alignment, pick a target in the distance and set up to the ball as normal. Place a club along the line of your toes, step back and see where the club points.

. If the club points directly at the target, or to the right of the target, your stance is what we called CLOSED.

. If the club points way left of the target, your stance is what call OPEN.

. The club should point PARALLEL LEFT of the target (imagine the line along your feet and the line from the ball to the target are like 2 train tracks.) This is a SQUARE stance.

. Remember, your knees, hips and shoulders should be in line or parallel to your feet.
