Why Posture is So Important
You suffer from inconsistency problems due to poor posture. For instance, if you bend over too much, it will cause you to hit the ball fat. If you stand too straight, you are likely to shank the ball or hit it thin.
Off of the Toe
You hit the ball off of the toe with a mid-iron due to swinging on an in-to-out path. You may fail to release your hands and arms when you approach the hitting area because you are rotating and over extending your arms outward. Tension could also cause you to hit off of the toe of the club…
Posture Checkup
You need to learn a quick and easy way to check your posture or you want to try to correct a flaw in your swing with no known cause.
Level Turn While Driving
Too much loft due to too much of a lateral movement of your lower body during the downswing and turning your back hand under the forward hand.
Play a Round at the Range
You see little improvement after spending hours at the driving range.
Slow Down Your Swing
You are swinging your woods too fast, causing a loss of distance or an unpredictable ball flight. You might even swing so quickly that you stand up straighter during the forward swing, leading to a slice.
The Grip Pressure Test
A grip that is too strong or weak will influence the consistency and direction of your shots.
Chipping Yips
You shank, top, or hit the ball thin because you jerk the club or the clubhead is taking an upswing instead of a downward blow.
The Original X Factor
You need to hit further or just want to lean how the pros accomplish the X-factor. Overturning your hips causes a reverse pivot at the top of your swing, therefore placing too much weight onto your forward foot at the wrong point in your swing, leading to consistency problems.
Angle Your Feet for More Control
Decreased flexibility can prevent proper hip rotation and therefore power, causing you to sway during your backswing. This is a very common problem for senior golfers because their muscles tighten as they age, inhibiting a proper turn for a full swing.
