TIP OF THE WEEK

Maintain your spine angle

If you're hitting a lot of fat or thin shots, an inconsistent spine angle is probably the culprit. Keeping the angle of tilt in your spine throughout your swing is crucial to hitting the ball solid. This is established at address. To keep a proper posture or "spine angle" throughout your swing, think of moving your sternum around your spine from takeaway to finish, like the Earth spinning on its axis. This will produce straighter and more consistent shots
