Left foot Position

[bcoak]

I have never really had much turn in the left foot so I am experimenting with the position of my left foot (right handed swing), turning it out more. It seems like I get in a better sit down position and it gies me more room to release. WOndering about the pros/cons of a turned out left foot.

Easier on the left knee and facilitates a fuller follow through and finish. However, beware of inadvertently opening up your stance.

The ball will give you an accurate answer though; it neither lies or makes mistakes.

That ball is a dirty dastardly prick.

left foot turned in more gives a closed stance effect...may be useful for slicer trying to get to inside-aft (after clubface fix).

Whatever have you done to upset it.

Now if you had said "that swing........................", or

"that foot.....................", or somesuch. But, the poor 'ol ball is innocent.
