Why this drill

Calibrate visual perception of square/intentional alignment.

Setup

One alignment rod parallel to target line at the feet and a second reference for ball/face line.

How to perform it

  1. 1Build stance to references, look at target, reset, repeat.
  2. 2Hit balls only after setup looks repeatable.

Key feel

Target awareness without manipulating the swing.

Success cue

Body and face orientation match intended shot plan consistently.

Recommended reps

10 setup rehearsals plus 10 shots.

Progression

Remove the foot-line rod and recreate alignment unaided.

Common mistake

Assuming shoulders must always be perfectly parallel for every intentional shot shape.
