Creative Commons License photo credit: USACE Europe District   Most amateur golfers have difficulty with their aim.  The next time you play, pay special attention to where the members in your group are aiming.  Many golfers, other than professionals, just don’t’ take where they are aiming serious enough.  They line the tips of their shoes with the target line, which really isn’t wrong, it’s just not totally right !

To make sure you are aimed properly, once you are solidly in the address position and stationary, take a club and place it across your thighs to check your correct aim.  You see, even though your toes are lined up with the target line, your hips may be open which aligns your thighs differently.  The thighs are a true measurement of the true aim point.
