Re: the role of the legs (lateral movement or not)

What are you views on stance width. I recently reduced my stance width with all clubs and found I have a far lower percentage of blocks and pulls. I think this is because the wide stance I *thought* was powerful and stable actually encouraged me to sway/slide on the BS and DS. With a shorter stance I can rotate much better and have less weight shift through the ball

Ive found whenever im off to go back to hitting balls with my feet together and make small increments in stance width really helps me get my timing back. I setup just wide enough to kick my right knee in a bit, get some axis tilt and then feel a coil up my right leg at the top
