One of the key foundations to any good golf swing is the golfers stance at address. If you have a good stance than your chances of delivering a solid blow to the back of the golf ball increase.
If you perfect you stance than you will be in balance with the golf swing and good balance will give you a controlled swing. You can work on your stance at the driving range so that when you get on the tee box you will feel comfortable when you address the golf ball.
Make sure you have a comfortable stance because if you feel uncomfortable that you will more than likely end up hitting a bad shot. Also, getting in a comfortable stance will make you tension free and no tension in the golf swing is a good thing.
The correct way to have a golf stance is to have your arms hanging loosely from your body and your hand should be below you chin. Bend from the hips not your back because bending from the hips will allow you get maximum rotation in your backswing.
Bend your knees slightly so that you feel you have and athletic stance. Also keep your chin up but not so high that you have a hard time seeing the ball.
Depending on the club you are playing the ball should be in the middle of your stance for higher lofted clubs move the ball back in your stance. For lower lofted clubs move the ball foward in your stance.
Once you have a comfortable stance it is now time to swing away. Get a comfortable stance and you will give yourself a great chance at hitting a solid golf shot.
