Ricky Fowler claims another title… with an Open Stance. What a marvelous example of golf swing individuality expressed through an Open Stance philosophy, huh? Power, precision, repeatability, and reliability built on one underlying set-up choice. Here is the video evidence.

Does Ricky look restricted in any way? Does he look like he is guessing with his set-up? Of course he doesn’t guess. Rick sets up EXACTLY THE SAME WAY EVERY TIME. Without that sort of attention to set-up, don’t even bother practicing. You’ll only be hurting your ball-striking.

If you DO pay close attention with your Open Stance set-up, practice as much as you want. From my own experience, I will tell you that once you have your hands, shaft, shoulders, and ball position ordered, swinging your club gets easy. I can also tell you I’ve practiced less in the last two years than ever before, but I still rarely mis-hit my ball because my set-up is locked in. It’s great!

Open your stance, and play golf.
