Many golfers have the idea that better results are obtained by leaning over toward the ball so the weight is on the toes. When the weight is forward this way, it is al- most impossible to pivot or turn correctly.
 Be sure your weight, at address, is we'll on your heels with as light bend at the knees to prevent stiff ness. With the weight in the prop CT place the left side can turn as it should and the swing start with some freedom.
 Playing the ball too far away or reaching for it will cause you to lean forward and bring the weight too far forward.
 Notice how Bobby Jones keeps his weight-his feet are close to- gether and there is no sign of lean ing forward. His wonderful foot balance is one of the features of his swing.
