For example when the stance is too wide,
the body is unable to turn to its fullest range or capacity.
Alternatively, when the stance is too narrow, there is a high
potential of over-swinging. With the narrow stance, the body
turns excessively creating a loss of balance.
In theory with the driver, the hips should
be positioned within the heels. In other words, the distance
between the heels should not exceed the width of the shoulders.
When shorter clubs are used, the stance is generally narrower.
The misalignment of the clubface can
impose another swinging error. At address when the clubface
is aligned open toward the direction of the ball-target line
causes the shot to push-sliced, pushed or rarely push-hooked.
Whenever the clubface is opened in position at address, it has
a tendency of impelling the swing of the club-head back toward
the inside direction of the ball-target line, equivocally; As
a result the return on the path is from the inside through impact.
During impact, the clubface will return
to its original address position making the direction of the
ball pushed to the right of the target. On the other hand, when
the clubface is released from an opened standpoint, the club-head
path influences a push-slice. However, if the clubface is closed
in relation to the club head path, the golfer will drive a push-hook.
