Having A Good Stance Is Essential For A Good Game Of Golf

A golfer usually has a bad day when their stance or setup is wrong or off. Posture and balance are very important in the game of golf, and have a direct impact with how well the game goes. It is very important to practice your golf swing and stance if you want to have an improved game of golf.

Begin with your posture. You don't want a posture that is too stiff. You also don't want your knees to be bended awkwardly, or your hands gripping the club too tightly. Errors like these can really effect the way your golf swing goes.

For example, if you stand with your knees bent too low then there is a natural inclination to raise your body up during the swing. Your golf swing will hit the top of the ball instead of its center. However, if you stand too straight and don't bend your knees enough then you will swing flatly and still hit the top of the ball.

The posture needs to be balanced. Start by balancing your feet. Your feet should be balanced between both your left and right foot, and from back to front.

Your golf swing will be restricted if you put your balance on your toes. This makes for a quick, short swing. You want to have a strong hit, not a quick one.

Have your arms hang down when you are swinging. A lot of people make the mistake of having their arms hang out. Correct this problem if you stick your arms out, and have them lay downwards instead.

Also notice how far you are standing to the ball. Another common problem people have is that they stand too far away from the golf ball. Be sure that you are standing where you need to before you take your golf swing.

The best tip for improving your game is to practice. AST teaches how to correctly position yourself to make the best swing. You don't need prior training to use AST to correct your swing.
