The Perfect Address - And It Ain't Madison Avenue!
Setting Up For Your Golf Swing
By: Bobby Lopez, PGA
The right arm will be bent slightly, but not to such a degree that it severely pulls down the right shoulder. A right shoulder too low during address will encourage a vertical rather than horizontal rotating motion.
The player will also tend to lay back instead of following through properly. Then the player will be forced to use the hands to compensate for the incomplete body rotation. The result: inconsistency.
It is natural for the right shoulder to be slightly lower than the left, because of the right hand position on the grip, but be careful to avoid extremes. The shoulders should feel relaxed as you are setting up.
With a good arm position you will notice that the elbows point approximately at the hip joints. The arms should be just far enough from the body to allow natural extension. The position is a matter of personal preference but you should have room for your arms to hang down naturally from your shoulders. Choose your own balance point but be aware of the danger of extremes.
What happens if your hands are in too close? If the hands are too close to the body at address, the club will have to swing on too vertical a swing plane. This will cause you to take too deep of a divot, and usually causes a weak slice. Vice versa, if the hands are too far away, this promotes a very inside take-away and you will lose the proper angle of attack for the ball. Once the angle is lost, your body will create a �compensation� to get proper ball contact. This will cause various ball flights and great inconsistency.
Open Shoulders (shoulders aimed to the left)
Typical Cause: Positioning the hands too forward in the stance.
Remedy: Place a golf club on the ground in the direction of your intended ball flight and square your shoulders to the golf club.
Typical Ball Flight: Pull if the club face is square to the path, pull slice if the club face is open.
Closed Feet, (feet aimed to the right)
Typical Cause: Lifting of the back to look at the target area.
Remedy: Only swivel the head to look at the target.
Weight Too Much On Heels
Typical Cause: Bending as if you�re sitting on a bar stool.
Remedy: Bend from the hips and maintain weight on the balls of your feet in an athletic pos

When you want to get some extra distance out of your drives, it�s natural to think that your right or dominant hand (for right-handed golfers) should supply the power. In reality, however, maximum power is a result of a left-hand lead.

Daly doesn't show for Bay Hill pro-am
Wed, 12 Mar 2008 21:32:28 GMT
John Daly has missed his pro-am time at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and faces disqualification from the tournament.
His curious absence comes one day after he was fired by his swing coach.
Daly lost his PGA Tour card two years ago and was invited to Bay Hill on a sponsor's exemption. Under PGA Tour regulations, anyone who misses the pro-am without a valid reason cannot play in the tournament.
