Bali Golf Course The Secondary Angle:
Maintain your spine tilt for improved ballstriking

Posture is a critical element of the golf swing, and is often overlooked by golf instructors and recreational players alike. It’s not particularly dynamic or flashy, and most golfers just don’t get excited about spending time developing correct posture. However, establishing the proper body angles at address—and maintaining them throughout the swing—is absolutely crucial to solid ballstriking and good shotmaking.

One of the most important aspects of solid posture is what I call the secondary spine angle, or secondary angle. This secondary angle is the tilt of the torso backward, away from the target, and is established due to the natural positioning of the body. Because the right hand is lower on the club than the left hand (for a right-handed golfer), assuming your arms are the same length, the right shoulder and right hip have to be lower than the left shoulder and left hip. This position at address is the only natural way the body can stand when gripping a club, and is universal for all golfers.

Once this angle is created, it’s of great importance to maintain it throughout the entire backswing and downswing. When the secondary spine angle is lost (usually on the initial takeaway), it affects more skilled and less skilled players differently. When skilled players lose the secondary angle, they tend to reverse pivot, that is, keep an excessive amount of weight on the front leg throughout the backswing. An indication that this is occurring is the left knee moving out over the left foot instead of backward toward the ball on the backswing.

The skilled player’s reverse pivot often leads to the right elbow getting stuck behind the hip on the downswing, draining both power and accuracy from the shot. This occurs because, regardless of skill level, a reverse pivot on the backswing generally leads to an opposite reverse pivot on the downswing. The result is the right shoulder dipping or tilting too much toward the ground, leading to the right arm getting trapped behind the hip. Not only does this position lead to less powerful shots, it can also cause blocks to the right and severe snap hooks.

When a less skilled player loses the secondary spine angle on the backswing, he or she tends to sway (move the hips laterally), which in turn causes an early leg drive and overly active lower body. A thrusting lower body is one of the most common problems among average golfers, and puts the body in front of the ball at impact. This weak position not only detracts from accuracy, it saps the body of the leverage needed to create powerful, solid golf shots. In addition, when the lower body moves too far forward (laterally), it prevents the arms from extending through impact, arguably the most important element of a good swing.

In order to ensure a proper, level hip turn (no sway or reverse pivot), with correct width on the backswing and the proper secondary angle, try the following drill.

Obtain two, three-foot-long, thin wooden dowels. Place one dowel through your belt loops, favoring your left side. Be certain that the end of the dowel protruding from the left side is slightly higher than the end of the dowel protruding from the right side. This will ensure a proper secondary angle at address, with the right shoulder sitting lower than the left. Then, place the second dowel in the ground vertically, so it sits outside your left foot. Make sure the second dowel is in line with your toe, sitting just below the end of the first dowel that’s resting in your belt loops.

Now, you’re ready to hit the ball. The goal is to swing the club without hitting the dowel placed outside the left foot. If you dip or sway your hips on the backswing, the two sticks will collide, indicating that you’ve lost your secondary angle.

When practicing this drill, it’s important to really concentrate on maintaining your address position all the way through the backswing. It’s easy to lose your posture, and the accompanying angles, immediately as you take the club away. If you’ve already ingrained bad habits into your motion, as many golfers have, it may be difficult at first to get your body to do what you want it to do. Don’t get frustrated. Just think about keeping the left end (for right-handed golfers) of the dowel or shaft above the right end. Doing so will allow you to make a backswing without touching the dowel or shaft that’s stuck in the ground.

This is a simple and effective way to practice the proper takeaway. Continue practicing until you can make a solid swing without touching the dowels. When you can do this consistently, you’ll have developed a proper hip turn and maintained the secondary spine angle.

Bali Golf Course Staying On-Plane:

A major fault of both accomplished and recreational golfers alike is taking the club too far inside on the backswing. This inside position generally leads to the club getting stuck behind the right hip (for right-handed golfers) on the downswing, preventing the desired, down-the-line release. Getting stuck too far inside creates a number of problems, the most serious of which is a compensatory flipping of the hands at impact, a move that creates nothing but glancing blows and non-compressed golf shots.
Swinging the club too far inside on the backswing and flipping at the ball not only affects the quality of impact, but can also greatly affect accuracy. Because the club can’t pass the right hip in the downswing and release down the target line, shots can go both left or right, without predictability or consistency. Playing golf with this type of move isn’t a lot of fun.

The best way to eradicate the inside takeaway for good is to learn to swing the club on-plane and down the target line. To accomplish this, lay a club on the ground in line with your hands and parallel to the target line. Take the club away by moving your hands along the shaft on the ground. Don’t allow them to float to the inside of the shaft. A great way to check yourself is to take some swings and stop at the waist-high position in your backswing. If your hands are inside the club (and your right hip), then your backswing is still traveling too far inside.

Another great practice drill requires the use of two alignment clubs. First, place a club above the ball, parallel to the target line. Then place a second club eight to 10 inches inside this line. You’ll notice the two clubs form a path, which should be your track on which to swing the club. At first, it will probably feel like the club is moving to the outside of the target line, but after a number of repetitions, the proper swing path will begin to feel normal. Practicing this drill will help keep your shoulders, hips and feet in alignment, and promote a more on-plane backswing.

Correcting an inside takeaway is a surefire way to improve both your shotmaking and scoring. The next time you’re at the range, lay two clubs on the ground, one to the outside and forward of the golf ball and another to the inside and behind the impact area. As you take the club away, use the track formed by the two clubs to guide your clubhead along the proper backswing plane. For most amateurs, swinging along this plane may feel as if the club is traveling too far to the outside, but it’s not. It’s on-plane and in perfect position to lead the golfer to a solid position at the top. More importantly, it negates the need to make compensating, difficult-to-time moves on the downswing, i.e., flipping the hands at impact.

Bali Golf Course Putting Tips: Don't Worry About Looking Exactly Like Tiger Woods -- or Anybody Else

You might be thinking that you're actually glad that you don't look exactly like Tiger Woods, given his marital failings. But we're not talking about that, wise guy. What we mean is: Don't worry about copying Woods' exact stance, any more than you would strive to replicate the hunched over silhouette of Jack Nicklaus, whom Golf.com ranked as only second to Woods among the game's all-time great putters.

Instead, search for the stance and the posture that feels right for your own physique, and stick with it. It's true that there are some fundamentals that seem to work for most golfers. Golf writer Peter Morrice recommends that you use your hands and wrists to stabilize the putter, and to concentrate on using the arms and shoulders to actually stroke the club. That's the simplest technique, which means it's the easiest to replicate consistently [source: Morrice]. But if you feel more comfortable as a "wristy" putter, don't be afraid to do it that way. A young Arnold Palmer found that if he stood very close to the ball and kept the head of his putter square, using his wrists worked best for him
