Your April 11' Newsletter is here, and this month we will be discussing Good Balance.* Good balance is crucial to hitting consistent and concise golf shots. Here is a practice tip to help sharpen up your balance:

  • Take a short iron (#7, 8, or 9) and tee up a ball.
  • Set up in your normal address position, and slowly lift your right foot off the ground.
  • Hit the shot - at first you will probably have too much lateral movement and lose your balance.
  • Continue to hit shots and concentrate on making smooth, controlled swings hitting the ball 40 to 50 yards.
  • When you get pretty consistent with your right foot off the ground, reverse feet so your left foot is off the ground.
  • Continue until you can hit good shots off either foot.

When you get to the point where you are able to hit good shots off either foot, it will be a piece of cake hitting the ball solidly on two feet.
