Full Swing · Technique

Set up with lively, athletic legs for driver power

For a more athletic driver setup, lock the knees back, tip forward from the waist, then soften the knees forward into the ball so your weight sits on the balls of your feet - ready to move like a goalkeeper rather than sitting back. Priming the legs this way keeps them lively and ready instead of static.
