Yes I am reviving an old post. I see many, many students who come to me with bad balance and wonder why the ball goes sideways. I talk to them about balance and they want to rush past the topic for something more exciting. The body always seeks balance and it doesn't care if you are hitting a golf ball! There's a big reason balance is one of the three Essentials!!!
