The Perfect Posture For Your Golf Swing (Part 2)
2. Setting up those perfect parallel body alignments
Your foot position is the foundation to being lined up correctly to where you want your golf ball to stop (or, best of all, fall in the hole on the green.) Your feet also act as guides for your turn movements in your swing sequence. (Future articles and my lesson modules will show you how your feet can guide your swing movements.)
As you prepare to play your next golf shot you are thinking of the line from the ball to where you want it to land or roll to. The next consideration is the parallel line on which you place your feet. (More on ways to align your feet parallel with the ball-to-hole line are in other articles and lesson modules.)
How do you ensure that your knees, hips, and shoulders are also parallel to the flight line?
For almost all golfers and “would-be golfers” this can be done by sight and feel.
Hips:
If your knees are parallel to your feet then your hips are already parallel to your feet. This applies to almost everyone. The exception will be anyone who has different lengths in their legs.
Shoulders:
During a round of golf a quick glance out of the bottom of your eyes will confirm your knee and hip alignment. A quick thought about whether your back and sides feel comfortable will help confirm that your shoulders are in line.
