One of the problems I've been having with my golf game- one of my many problems- is the habit of lifting my head during the swing. This results in my topping the ball, and oddly, this does nothing for my score.
My golf buddy, Joe Candy, suggests bending my legs while keeping my back straight. I could keep the back straight, but had to have a wider stance instead of bending the knees.
It worked! I got under the ball and get some great shots.
Of course, from a distance, my wide-legged, bent-knee stance looks less than...elegant. Actually, a stance like that is usually seen- if seen at all- under cover while the "stancer" is answering the call of the wild!
I've decided to get longer clubs. Until then I'm going to insist that I am combining yoga with golf, and I am practicing the "lone horseman" pose!
Later, Mushers!
