Golf Tips - Understanding Golf Swing Alignment

Poor alignment is the single most destructive area for players of all levels, when it comes to taking the game from the practice range to the golf course. This means alignment is extremely important for you as a beginner - so don't put it on "the back burner" of your learning priorities.

There are two main elements to be considered when lining up a golf shot. First and foremost is the target line (the line that the golf club is actually on). Secondly - the stance line, also known as the body line.

Both are important, but the stance line must always be determined first by the target line if the stance line is to have any true meaning.
