Foot position is so important in getting the ball to fly where you want it to go. This week I have been focusing on perfecting my feet to get the most out of my swing. Your feet aim the ball just as mucho as the club face does. If you were to draw a line from the toes of your feet down the fairway, that line would show the flight way of the ball. So many people line up and think that they are pointing one direction when really their aim is way off. My issue is that when I stand I’m a little duck footed. Being just slightly off has been contributing to my slice. My golf coach had me practice with a stick to help line my feet up right. I used the stick to point towards the hole and then use that to set my feet. It was a strange feeling when I started out, but as with anything that helps to improve your game it mostly had to do with correcting and retraining muscle memory.
