Did you know that the No. 1 reason for swing problems is your address position?
Your grip, stance, alignment and posture are all part of your address position. Jack Nicklaus states that all golfers can be as good as he is before starting their swing, but very few are.
If you aimed in the wrong direction, do you blame your alignment or your swing? Most right-handed golfers do not realize their alignment tendency is to the right of the target and think that there is something wrong with their swing.
Most golfers have too wide of a stance, but don’t understand why they have poor weight transfer in their swing.
For help with your swing problems, see your local PGA or LPGA golf professional.
