Re: Open stance with driver to clear my hips?

Ty, lol, I almost wrote that in the last post. Actually, I have a laminated brown pressed board (about 5 x 4 feet) in the garage that I use for lie angle determination (hit off of it with impact tape) that I've actually did just that....outlined my feet, the intended line, and a line across the tops of my feet and my approximate tee area. Gotcha....I'm not going to let that one get away from me. I'm going to catalogue that under "when things seem to start getting out of hand, check...."

Over time, the open stance will begin to feel natural to you and if you're still trying to open it up, you may end up overdoing it. If you do, having marked off the position that works will be very useful I would think.
