Is your Posture Limiting your Golf Swing?

Let's talk about posture.

Many practitioners and swing coaches will say things like "We need to fix your posture!!"

"Your posture is limiting your swing!"

"Your posture is going to cause back pain, muscle imbalances, and an inefficient swing!"

Firstly, to be frank, posture isn't as important as many make it out to be.

This article can be summed up in one line, and if you want to stop reading after this you are welcome to because it's the central theme...

The best posture is, more than likely, the one you are the most comfortable in.

Is upright posture the best?

Stay upright.

Squeeze our shoulder blades together.

Keep our head and neck back.

The posture shown in the picture above on the right is not "better" than the one on the left.

The one on the right is also way more uncomfortable.
