How far to stand from the golf ball ⛳️🤯 simplified 💥 #golf #golftips #golfswing

PGA-certified instructor Georgia Ball demonstrates a simple posture trick to determine how far to stand from the golf ball. By holding the club out at belly button height, bending at the hips until the club rests flat, and taking a natural stance, golfers can easily integrate this perfect setup distance into their pre-shot routine.

• Start with your feet together and extend the club straight out at belly button height.
• Hinge forward from the hips until the clubhead rests flat on the ground to locate proper ball position.
• Shuffle your feet into a shoulder-width stance with knees naturally flexed.
• Let your arms and hands hang straight down naturally, keeping your weight balanced on the balls of your feet.
• Incorporate this quick check directly into your on-course pre-shot routine.
