What is the proper stance for a golf swing?
The proper stance depends a lot on the type of shot you are attempting. For instance on a drive you want the ball slightly in front of your center, and you want your feet a few inches wider than shoulder width apart. For mid range iron shots you center the ball and stand with your feet shoulder width. For putting you narrow your stance further. Irrespective of what type of shot you are taking, you should position your body perpendicular to the intended direction of travel for the ball.
