One simple drill I’ve found helpful is the ‘mirror drill.’ Just practice your stance in front of a mirror to ensure proper alignment. It’s fun to watch the adjustments in real-time!

That’s a genius idea! I always feel awkward practicing at the range but the mirror would help me stay focused on the right angles.

Honestly, I think finding the perfect stance can be so elusive. I’ve played with my feet position for years! Does anyone have a set routine they stick to?

I hear you! There are so many variables. I focus on my grip adjustments to balance things out. What do you all think - is grip more important than stance?
While grip is certainly important, I think stance and posture play a bigger role in creating a solid foundation for the swing. Let’s not underestimate it!

Well said! I just started focusing on my upper body alignment too. It’s fascinating how interconnected all aspects are!
I sometimes wonder if I’m overthinking my stance and posture. Can too much focus lead to hesitation in the swing? Anyone experienced that?

Haha, I definitely overthink it! I end up looking like a pretzel at times. I guess it’s about finding that balance between focus and flow.
At the end of the day, we all have our quirks! Just remember to relax and enjoy the process of learning. Our swings will get better with practice!
Exactly! Golf is as much about the mental game as it is about technique. Let’s keep sharing tips and support each other!
I’m really enjoying this discussion! I’ll try incorporating some of these tips into my practice next time. Thanks, everyone!
Absolutely! The swing plane is crucial for consistency. If your swing isn’t on plane, expect inconsistency in accuracy and distance. It’s something I really struggle with myself.
I can relate to that! Visualizing the swing plane helps me adjust my shots. What methods do you find effective for practicing it?
One technique I use is to maintain a straight line with my arms and club during the backswing. It really helps with keeping that plane consistent!
That’s a solid approach! Have you tried using a mirror or alignment sticks during practice? It can really enhance your visualization.
Mirrors and alignment sticks are game-changers! They give immediate feedback on your swing path. I’ve seen significant improvement since incorporating them.
Speaking of improvement, I often hit the ball too high or low. I’m guessing that’s a swing plane issue? Would love to hear others’ thoughts.
Definitely could be related to your swing plane! Adjusting your angle can help. Have you considered reviewing videos of your swing?

Video analysis is fantastic! It really helps to spot common mistakes. I’ve noticed that sometimes I drop my shoulders too much, affecting my swing plane.
