Posture And Setup In Golf – Recommended By The Professionals

span>Share:

One of the most effective method to manage your posture and setup is to go over them until they become habitual. Let us start with your posture. Here is a drill I use to show students how much their torso should tilt when they are in their stance. Select a club, possibly a seven iron, grip it, and set your feet at shoulder width, as though you were preparing to hit a shot. Nevertheless, I want you to stand upright, with no tilt in your torso or bend in your knees. Let your arms to hang straight down in front of you, while holding the club parallel to the floor.

At this instant tilt from your waist without bending your knees. Continue tilting until the club head is about twelve to fifteen inches above the ground. You must never tilt farther forward than that. I observe far too many players with too much tilt. Now faintly unlock your knees and lower the club head until it touches the ground. When I mention unlock your knees, I indicate precisely that. I do not recommend you to bend your knees. Having too much bent in your knees restricts your lower body, inhibits your upper torso turn, and restricts the amount of leg strength you can use in your swing.
