Setup - Intro

When setting up to attempt any full swing shot always set up the same.

If you address the ball each and every time with the body in the same position and with the golf ball in the same position (relative to your front foot), then you will find it much easier to make the same swing every time and produce the same shot every time (or at least a similar shot for most amateurs).

Many pros (teaching pros included) will suggest that you adjust you posture, ball position and/or hand position depending on which club you are hitting. If you follow this advice it is necessary to produce a different (even if just slightly) for each of the different 'setups' in your repertoire. Listen folks - you know as well as I that it's hard enough to learn one good golf swing let alone 14 (one for each club in the bag).

Building consistency in your address will convert to consistency in your shots which will in turn help build consistency in your game. Consistency in your game regularly leads to lower scores!
