Top Golf Tip - Master the setup position for more consistency and a stronger swing!
You wouldn’t build the perfect house on sinking sand would you? Next time you watch the world’s best players on television, pay particular attention to each player’s setup. Their setup and posture when addressing the ball is almost perfect every time and enables them to play each shot with maximal power and consistency. Focus on keeping your spine angle and work on body alignment along with ball positioning and the strike will come!
