    Why is alignment so important?
    Proper target alignment is critical for getting the ball to the hole with the fewest strokes. No matter what your handicap, which brand of club you use, or whether you make the best swing ever, if you are not properly aligned to the target the ball will not go where you intended.

    Why is ball position important?
    If the ball is too far back or forward in the stance, ball flight will be adversely affected. It could go left or right of the target, hooking or slicing, or could result in thin or fat shots. The same is true if the ball is too far from or too close to the feet. Ball position must be thought of as its placement in your stance, relative to your forward foot and distance from toe point to ball.

    The Problem
    90% of amateur golfers align themselves incorrectly to the target, and 95% do not know where to properly place the ball in their stance. Occasionally even the best touring professionals align themselves too far left or right of the target, place the ball too far back or forward in their stance, or too close or too far from the feet. While the body may not be aligned to the intended target, the eyes can easily become accustomed to "think" that the body is correctly aligned. When the ball goes too far left or right of target, the golfer may attribute it to a swing fault and may try to compensate or "correct" the swing, when in reality just a minor alignment or ball position adjustment is needed.

    The Cure
    The ALIGN-DRIVE helps you assure that your hips and shoulders are parallel with the target line, and the ball is the correct distance from your feet, located correctly between them in your stance. By practicing with the ALIGN-DRIVE, you will develop consistency and learn to recognize what proper ball position and alignment looks and feels like. Your line to the target will be accurate, and the ball will be in the proper position. With practice you will develop and retain consistent alignment and ball-position memory.
