Golf & Posture

Good Posture
is vital in any sport, but it is essential in golf.
A good golfer should stand with a
balanced, athletic
posture to create a powerful swing; however working on
improving posture is one of the most neglected aspects of
golf.
Every club golfer can
improve their stance and consequently their swing, but few
spend time on addressing their posture.
Improving your posture and learning to stand well to the ball
greatly improves your chance of making a good swing.
The most important fundamental of a good swing is a good turn
of the shoulders,
and to turn the
shoulders well you have to have a
straight spine.
Look at the stance and posture of a pro and it is clearly
visible how straight the spine is, but if you study a club
golfer often their shoulders are slumped and the top of the spine is
bent forward as
they stare down at the ball.
Looking down at the ball with the head rather than with the
eyes, is the most damaging fault a golfer can have at stance
and the most common cause of
poor posture.
Whilst there are many aspects of good posture a straight spine
is the most important.
Wearing a posture
support can help improve your posture and ultimately
improve your golf!
A posture brace can
help to keep the spine
straight and keep the
shoulders back to
prevent the slouching posture that can interfere with your swing.
The posture support is
lightweight and
comfortable to wear whilst playing golf. It is made from a
breathable, skin friendly material which can be worn
discreetly under clothing.
Improving your posture
will ultimately lead to
stronger swings and consequently more
accurate shots and
great golf!
