Aim Correctly
Aim Correctly If You Want To Hit The Ball Straight
In my 30 years experience as a golf professional one of
the most common faults I seen the average golfer make is
that they don't know how to set up correctly.
A lot of players think they have to aim their body at the
target and forget where their club face and feet are
pointing.
The best thing to think of for a correct set up is to
picture yourself standing on the nearest track of a rail-
way line to hit a golf ball sitting on the other track.
Your feet, hips and shoulders don't aim at the target
they aim parallel but to the left of the target. The
only thing that aims at the target is your club face on
the other line.
Such a set-up encourages swinging the club face through
the ball along - rather than across - the target line.
Try it you will soon see your shots fly straighter.
