Posture in Golf

42 free videos on technique, drills and tips, each tagged by level

What coaches agree on

  • Set your spine angle by hinging forward from the hip joints while keeping your back flat.
  • Let your arms hang down naturally and relaxed from your shoulders — that determines the right distance to stand from the ball.
Show more
  • Balance your weight over the balls of your feet, centered between your heels and toes, for a stable, athletic position.

Common mistakes

  • Rounding the upper back and tucking the pelvis under into a hunched ‘C’ shape restricts hip rotation and makes a full backswing difficult.
  • Overarching the lower back and thrusting the backside out into an exaggerated ‘S’ shape strains the back and limits rotation.
  • Over-flexing the knees into a squat-like sit, mistaking it for an athletic stance, shifts weight onto the heels and flattens the swing.

Master Golf Posture for a Better Takeaway & Wider Swing

Reviewer Specific, checkable cues that explain why they matter, not just what to do.

Moderator This is squarely posture — how standing too close or too far distorts your setup — and it connects the fix directly to a cleaner, wider takeaway, which is exactly how posture should be taught: as the foundation the rest of the swing depends on.

Master Your Golf Posture with Two Essential Drills

Moderator This is posture too, just the harder part — staying in your spine angle through the downswing instead of standing up out of it. Both drills, the alignment stick and the chair behind you, are built around training that specific retention.

Reviewer Both drills give you instant feedback on whether you're staying down — genuinely useful.

The Power Of NATURAL Posture: Unlock Your Golf Swing Potential

Reviewer Solid concept, just delivered in a pretty rambling, in-the-moment lesson style.

Moderator About address posture and arm connection specifically: the 'plug-in' cue for keeping arms connected to the torso, bending from the hip joint vs the 'old man posture', referencing real tour players' natural setups. Squarely on-topic.

How to Maintain Posture in your Golf Swing

Reviewer Good content and a good drill - dinged slightly for the app promo in the middle.

Moderator Starts on posture but pivots into maintaining it through rotation - hip turn, ground force through the trail heel. Still squarely golf posture/setup territory, just extending into how it holds up through the swing rather than staying static.

#GOLF: Finally Stay in Posture + Stop Standing Up!

Reviewer Good teaching model once you get past the sales pitch at the top.

Moderator Title and content both squarely about maintaining spine angle/posture through the swing rather than standing up out of it, the whole 'red-white-blue rib cage' teaching model is built around keeping posture through backswing, transition, and follow-through.

Shallowing the club isn't always a technique issue — ...

Moderator This uses golf posture directly as the diagnostic baseline - checking arm rotation standing tall versus in golf posture to see whether posture itself is restricting the shoulder. A genuine, direct engagement with posture, even though the ultimate goal discussed is shallowing the club.

Reviewer Smart diagnostic idea - comparing your rotation standing tall against golf posture to spot a real restriction.

GOLF: Perfect Golf Swing Setup And Posture - Eric Cogorno Golf Lesson

Reviewer Sharp coaching if you can already follow swing-plane talk, dense for a posture-only ask.

Moderator Real 1-on-1 lesson that does cover posture (natural hunch at address, standing up and losing spine angle through the downswing) but spends at least as much time on grip strength and its effect on clubface/swing plane, which is a different topic. Posture is a strong thread, not the whole cloth.

Improve Your Golf Swing: Maintain Posture and Pressure

Moderator Squarely on golf posture -- a specific drill (hand on the trail arm to reduce lift, deliberate pressure shift) rather than vague swing tips.

Moderator This is really about maintaining coil through the swing - keeping the lead knee from collapsing so the hips don't overturn - which touches body structure but is framed mainly around rotation and power, not the static setup position itself.

Reviewer Good, specific technical content on keeping the knee and hip structure sound through the backswing.

HOLE NO. 7 THORACIC ROTATION Every golfer wants a ...

Moderator This is a thoracic-rotation mobility drill performed in golf stance, cueing you to stay centred rather than sway or slide as you rotate - that centred, stable base is posture-adjacent, though rotation mobility is really the main focus.

Reviewer Good centred-rotation cue and an easy drill to try at home, gentle and accessible.

Work on your golf technique without even stepping out ...

Reviewer Clever drills that give you instant feedback when you sway - good training design even if it's more stability work than posture per se.

Moderator This is a set of gym drills (yoga ball at the hip, banded backswing, med ball slam) aimed at stopping side-to-side sway in the swing. Staying centred is posture-adjacent, but the drills are really about rotational stability and power training rather than posture instruction directly.
