This helps Seniors improve FAST.

Kirk Junge explains how aligning the clubhead with the lead arm at setup simplifies the golf swing, particularly for seniors. This single-plane adjustment eliminates the need for mid-swing compensations, making it significantly easier to square the clubface at impact for more consistent results.

• Align the club shaft directly with your leading arm when viewed from the front.
• Ensure the clubface is positioned subtly underneath the leading arm at address.
• Avoid starting with an angle between the arm and shaft to prevent a wide-open face at impact.
• Use a mirror or video review to confirm the arm and club form a single straight line.
• Simplifying the setup reduces the athletic difficulty of returning the club properly through the ball.
