A consistent, repeatable swing is directly linked to the quality of your fundamentals at address. Specifically, your posture and balance set the stage for how you swing.
If these fundamentals are off, the rest of your swing will suffer. That’s why doing a simple posture check can help you create an athletic, balanced address position.
Stand tall and lock your knees. Hinge forward from your hips and then lightly flex your knees as you let your arms hang from your shoulders. Looking down, you should see the knot in your shoelaces and feel your weight balanced over your ankles.
Finally, place your hands on your thighs. Notice where your fingertips come to rest. Generally, your hip hinge and balance are in check if your fingertips are touching just above your kneecaps. Now, grip a club and address the ball. If you start your swing from there, you’ll be in perfect position to put a solid strike on the ball.
