Stance:
Width…shoulder side, inside of feet to outside edge of shoulders. Building Effect (Illustration A) vs. Eiffel Tower (Illustration B).
Building Effect has legs in line and in balance with the hips; joined in the hip sockets. Eiffel Tower has the legs angled into the hip socket with pressure of opposing/contradicting angles caused by feet wider than shoulders.
Premise: Narrow feet—wide knees—both feet slightly flared out, right foot 5 to 10 degrees… left foot 10 to 15 degrees.
Weight Distribution:
1. Pre-loaded/60%+ heavy right foot.
2. Front to back on feet = centered over arches/insteps.
3. Wide knees/over ankles/outward pressure… Ride the skinny horse.
Reasons:
1. Allows external rotation of the knees, always moving together in the same direction at the same time.
2. Allows instantaneous load over and onto a flexed right leg (like pitching).
3. Right hip socket; knee and foot are in a straight line = perfect load.
NOTE: Should feel like you sit or sink over and onto a flexed right leg because when you load, the leg receives your weight. You feel the load on the thigh and hamstring, the big leg muscles.
KEY: Stance Width-Changes as club gets longer, Wedge-Outside edge of both feet under outside edge of shoulders. Driver-Center of right foot under outside edge of right shoulder-inside edge of left foot under outside edge of shoulder.
Maximum change is thus 3-4 inches from wedge thru driver and maintains look of Building
Effect.
NOTE: 9 iron – driver: Center of right foot is under outside edge of right shoulder for all shot/clubs. It is only the left foot that moves to change stance width.
