Golf Pro Tips: Improve Your Game


Before Every Shot...

Proper aim and body alignment lead to a good swing path. People often forget, golf is a target game; and like any target game, aiming to the target is an essential first step. Your initial setup can give your mind and body the ability to swing freely in a correct swing path, free from the mechanical distractions and complications brought into the swing by misaligned body positions.

Visualize your target line, then align your body to that line. Here's how...
First, stand behind your ball and pick a small intermediate target on your target line, then address the ball with your feet, hips, shoulders and eyes parallel to that target line. You’ll be surprised what a huge impact this simple fundamental can have on shot performance.

By properly aiming your body along your target line, you increase the likelihood of a mechanically correct and free-flowing swing. When your feet, hips, shoulders, eyes, and club are not aligned with each other (or with the target), they conflict with each other and cause all sorts of problems with your swing and ball flight. Align your body (and club) properly, and let the swing flow.
So go out there and  AIM... ALIGN... SWING
