Golf Conversation #3: Balance

Golf Guy: Now we will work on having you stand in a relaxed "athletic position".
Student: Relaxed "athletic position"? I do not understand.
Golf Guy: Have you snowboarded or surfed before?
Student: I tried to snowboard in Canada last year. I fell down lots but it was really, really fun.
Golf Guy: Snowboarding is lots of fun. To stand properly on a snowboard your body needs to be relaxed and your body weight needs to be centered over the board.
Student: Yeah... I realized that the more relaxed I was, the easier it was to stand and turn.
Golf Guy: Correct. That feeling of balance you found snowboarding is the same you will need for golf.

  • Good instruction! We may need more practice before we can stand in a relaxed 'athletic position'.
  • I didn't know that! Thanks for the tip. I'll have to try it out at the driving range.
