I think many people have problems where they align their body first, often they will align themselves to the target and not left parallel to it, then place the club incorrectly behind the ball. This normally results in a shot to the right. |
This is weird; I'm sure I posted a long response to this which has disappeared. Mind you the format of the portal has changed as well.
Anyway.
Thank's for the answer Brian; two questions.
By target do you mean the big target (left fairway, short of the trap) or the little intermediate target (that daisy on the target line)?
Why the leading foot. I've just switched to the placing the right foot first which for some odd reason seems to set me in balance with a nice tilt of the shoulders and I'd be reluctant to change unless fundamental to solving the misalignment.
Cheers
