I have "always" set-pu by placing the club behind the ball steppin in with the left foot first then the right, grip first set the left hand then the right then check alignment and fine tune alignment and stance. Since I am using this winter to rebuild EVERYTHING I have seen that there is a predominant set up prosess and it,s not mine. ie. usual start with right foot step in and right hand first. I am interested in how to develope a most effective set-u sin I am rebuilding everything.

Watch it. Learn it. Live it. EVERY swing.

This is a PERFECT way to set your feet consistently.

Before long, you won't be able to set up any other way.

When you tire of watching this, buy the full version. You will LOVE it!

I do have a very consistant set-up. I do see what I am questioning in the video. My question, Is there any advantage to the set-up which sets the club with the right hand and steps in with the right foot first. I see he "jiggles"his set up as required. My single question is on SEQUENCE. ???

It's his sequence that makes the routine so solid!

Right foot first, perp to the target line. Left foot in, a few inches in front of the right. Right foot back, further back for the driver than the wedge. Keeps ball position constant...

The right hand pushes the shaft forward, making him put the left hand on the club at impact fix... brilliant!

Horses for courses.

There is a school of thought that advocates setting the club face behind the ball whilst looking at the hole/ball destination and then, whilst never taking your eyes of the hole/ball destination, allow your body to settle into place naturally.

Each unto his own. If it works for you, why bother with anything else.

. . . allow your body to settle into place naturally.

Watch a small child fumbling with his shoelaces as he attempts, with great conscious effort, to tie them for the first time. This is natural.

Watch that same child a year or two later as he breezes through the process and ties them perfectly and subconsciously. This also is natural.

In between comes . . .

Learning how.

The same is true of all skills requiring manual dexterity, whether it is learning to write the alphabet, play the piano or swing a golf club.

Some people learn faster than others.

And some people never learn at all.

Improvement is the process of acquiring more and more mechanical precision and translating that precision to 'feel'.

Mastery is the long-term fruit of that effort.
