Improve Your Golf Posture and Your Consistency

5 min
Added on September 27, 2024
To swing the golf club with power, skilled golfers use their legs and push against the ground to accelerate the club. To do this properly, though, the legs have to push at the right time and in the right manner. Otherwise, you can fall into the common trap of early extension, a swing fault where you stand up during the downswing. You lose your address posture as your torso elevates and your hips thrust closer to the ball. Early extension is a problem because it requires you to throw the clubhead... with your hands and arms in order to make contact with the ball. This is a very unreliable motor pattern that can lead to a wide variety of misses.

Fortunately, Titleist staff member Trillium Rose has just the cure if you suffer from loss of posture in your golf swing. Just follow the simple indoor drills that Trillium prescribes in this video and you'll see a rapid improvement in your ball striking consistency – with less wear and tear on your body.
