~5 minAny clubMirror or phone (optional)
Steps
- 1.Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, weight balanced between the balls of your feet.
- 2.Bend from your hips (not your waist) until your arms hang straight down naturally.
- 3.Let your knees flex slightly, and keep your back reasonably straight — no slouching.
- 4.Let your arms hang so the club rests naturally behind the ball.
Why it helps
Good posture gives your swing room to turn; poor posture is the root cause of topped and fat shots.
Your assignment
Take 10 practice setups without a ball, checking your posture in a mirror or phone camera each time.
