STEP 1

LINE UP STRAIGHT After selecting your target and taking your address, lay your 3-wood across your chest as shown [left] and make sure that the clubhead is pointed at your target. When your shoulders are parallel to the target line you have the best chance of keeping your swing path online. If you need to give your target one last look before starting your swing, do it by cocking your head to the right and tracing the line with your eyes, making sure to keep your left shoulder in view the whole time. Don't lift up to check your target — that will simply pull you out of your stance and aim your left shoulder left of the target.
