Master these three golf alignment fundamentals and you're well on your way!
1. Aiming the club-face to your target/start line.
2. Perfecting your body lines, primarily your feet, hips, and shoulders relative to your target.
3. Starting the club on the correct path (takeaway/ swing plane)
Here's the best news. Theses golf alignment fundamentals are SKILLS that can be acquired regardless of physical capabilities or limitations. The key is getting quality reps to build lasting muscle memory. This is best accomplished by utilizing external feedback that creates powerful "feels' and visual ques. Using golf alignment sticks to gain visual feedback for feet and hip alignment is essential. Adding an alignment stick mirror can provide visuals on shoulder alignment and ball position. Using an alignment stick behind you, placed diagonally in the turf, can demystify your back-swing plane.
