Thinking about golf posture (when I shouldn’t)

by david horne on February 16, 2010

Last week I found myself sitting in a breastfeeding class. In my defense,  I was there supporting my wife.  We are expecting our first child in a month and I felt it was my duty to be there with her. Ok, I am not fooling anyone. She made me go.  I will say this, there is way more to it than I thought, and I did learn a lot despite my mind wanting to revert to back to 4th grade (when the word nipple was funnier than almost anything).

One word that kept coming up in the class was posture.  I was amazed at how important getting the baby and mother in the right posture is to successful…well, you know.  In the golf swing posture is also key.  This time of year when it is cold and outside practice is limited, one thing we can always work on is posture.  I try to do this a few times a week leading up to the warm season. A mirror is all you need (club optional).  Practicing your posture is one of the best off-season uses of your time.  Please check out this post on posture by my friend Chris Guy. He is a golf instructor and touring professional from across the pond.

P.S . Congrats Freddie on your first Champions Tour victory! Talk with you soon.
