Alignments Vs. Positions

[O.B.Left]

Positions may or may not be Aligned.

Aligned motion creates the positions we admire. Not vice versa.

To merely copy the positions without the motion or the alignments will no doubt fail to replicate results of the famous golfers whose positions we admire.

Many have copied Mr Hogans positions, for instance but few have achieved his Alignments .......let alone his results. Uh well nobody has actually.

We're all unique physically. Our positions can reflect that uniqueness. Say you had a golfer who could bend his left thumb back to touch his forearm....he'd probably display a pretty acute #2 Angle at Top or End but does that mean that position is the ideal for you or me? NO! I cant do that physically. I love Mr Hogans swing but remember he got his rear end spanked regularly by a guy who didnt cock his left wrist much till he started down and drove his knees at the target .....Lord Byron. We all have unique physical traits , abilities ,strengths , weaknesses , flexibilities etc. Play to your strengths....via alignments. Positions are more resultant. More effect than cause.

Moe Norman....."Dont swing like Moe , swing like you!"

Positions are a moment frozen in time by a camera.......golf is a motion which is best aligned .... to something. I like the plane line. In so doing you display some nice positions.
