Checkpoint: Address
Jun 26, 2025
How you address the ball is a key element in forming proper balance and weight distribution, and it is the starting point that determines shot direction and accuracy. Even slight posture differences can greatly affect your results, so a precise setup is essential. Our AI trainer currently displays 12 checkpoints at Address, which are detailed below:
Slouched head
The head is slouched down and the chin is positioned too close to the chest.
Lack of knee flex
The knees are not flexed enough causing the pelvis to stand tall.
Upright spine angle
The spine angle is too upright, vertically from the pelvis to the shoulders.
Excessive tilt in spine angle
The spine angle is excessively bent toward the golf ball.
Excessive knee flex
The knees have too much flex causing the pelvis to distribute too much weight to the heels.
Grip/Club is too far from body
The grip and club are too far from the body causing excessive reaching towards the ball.
Grip/Club is too close to body
The grip and club are too close to the body causing the crowding of the arms and hands.
Reverse press
The triangle structure of the shoulder and both arms is flawed with the grip reverse pressed towards the trail side.
Excessive forward press
The triangle structure of the shoulder and both arms is flawed with the grip excessively forward pressed towards the lead side.
Width of stance is too wide
The distance between both feet is wider than the width of the shoulder.
Width of stance is too narrow
The distance between both feet is narrower than the width of the shoulder.
Reverse spine angle
The spine angle is tilted causing the head to fall towards the target. The trail shoulder is higher than the lead shoulder.
Following these points when addressing the ball is the key to starting your swing right. It's important to note that while you can of course use the AI trainer feature with any club, currently the driver and 7-iron have integrated modes available. What this means is that the AI Trainer’s evaluation criteria may vary depending on the selected club type during the session. As we improve and update our AI Trainer, more features will be available to use to help you achieve more satisfying and confident swings. Check in periodically on these pages for any new features available through the AI trainer. We appreciate your continued interest and support!
