One of the best ways to have consistent accuracy and distance is to have the right posture.

Specifically, what I call “the accordian effect.”

Here's what that means:

Back when I started teaching the PPGS I wanted to create a way for people to get into the right posture without having to do anything mechanical or complicated. And I was watching a baseball game one night, and I noticed on the field, players naturally get into what's called an “athletically ready” position.

Just look at any professional baseball player as an example.

Before the pitch, the players' shoulders and knees go down together and they put their hands on their knees — ready and flexible, but not overly tense. The beauty of this is they can move in any direction — forward, right, back, left — anywhere, fluidly and easily.

Tennis players do this, too.

Watch any tennis player before a serve and they are in the exact same position.

You want to get into that same kind of position — which I call “the accordian effect” –when using the PPGS. This gets you into perfect dynamic balance, because if you bend your shoulders and knees at the same time, it squeezes your hips out exactly the right amount for optimal performance.

This then makes your shots more consistent, straight, pain free and longer. (Especially when you have an uphill or downhill lie.)

So that's the lesson:

Squeeze down, melt down into your finish and all your muscles will be stretching at the optimal distance, and working hard for you during your golf swing.

Just doing the accordian effect alone will improve your ball striking.

That is all for today.

I will see you tomorrow with another fast start PPGS lesson about how to position your feet for the best golf swing.
