Stance Position!!! (feet)

Posted by: user10367 | Tue 3rd Aug 2010 22:36 | Last Reply

Just wondering how many members on here know that the distance between their feet is the correct distance for the shot in hand??

And how was it explained to them or what was used to show them the correct distance??

The reason I ask is that from memory there is a lot of difference between players that I've seen but I've not asked the question of them, so I am now.

For my driver, I tend to have my feet pointed slightly outwards and just over shoulder width apart. My mid irons are generally shoulder width apart or just under. My short irons see me with feet quite close together and weight generally on my front foot.

As for how I got to know this was basically watching and reading.

Only ever had one lesson when I was 11.

Hold a club in your hand and hang it straight down on the outside of your leg.  If the outside of your foot just touches the club, you are shoulder width apart
