Proper Golf Stance and Alignment

The Ultimate Golf Training Aid Inspired by Ben Hogan

Whether you're a beginner learning the basics or an experienced player fine-tuning your skills, Stance Caddy can help you! The PGA Show Most Innovative Concept winner is a revolutionary product designed to help perfect both your golf stance and alignment. Inspired by Ben Hogan’s book “Ben Hogan’s Five Lessons: The Modern Fundamentals of Golf,” Stance Caddy offers a modern solution for mastering your golf swing.

Why Stance and Alignment Matters in Golf

One of the most overlooked aspects of golf is stance and alignment. Your stance sets the foundation for your entire swing. A poor stance can lead to misalignment, reduced power, and inconsistent shots. Ben Hogan, a golfing legend, emphasized the importance of a proper stance and alignment in his book. He believed that these fundamentals were key to achieving a consistent and powerful swing. Stance Caddy is made to address both your stance and alignment.

Key Features of Stance Caddy

• Easy Setup and Use: Stance Caddy is designed with simplicity in mind. It’s easy to set up, making it perfect for both practice at home and on the range.
• Personalized: Unlike other stance training aids and tools which are fixed boards, towels or even laminated cards. Stance Caddy is personalized to you. Using our patented built in measuring mechanism we work for players of all ages and for both left and right-handed players.
• Feedback Mechanism: Stance Caddy provides a visual reference and helps isolate your lower half to focus on your upper half of the swing. This makes practice much more efficient as you get instant feedback on your swing having eliminated stance and alignment.
• Durable and Portable: Made with high-quality materials, Stance Caddy is built to last and can be easily carried in your golf bag.

How Stance Caddy Helps with the Ben Hogan Golf Setup

There are two primary methods to setup to the golf ball. You either move the ball up and back in your stance, or you keep the ball in the same position off of the lead foot and open and close your stance. Hogan’s stance is the open/closed method. Here’s how Stance Caddy can help you replicate Hogan’s principles:

• Proper Stance Alignment: Hogan stressed the importance of your alignment. Stance Caddy helps you achieve this precise alignment by providing clear visual guides, ensuring you are set up correctly before every shot.
• Consistent Ball Position: A consistent ball position is crucial for hitting solid shots. Stance Caddy helps you establish a consistent ball position for different clubs, aligning with Hogan’s philosophy that the ball’s position should be consistent no matter what club is in your hand.
• Open/Closed Stance Practice: Hogan used an open stance with high irons to promote striking down on the ball prior to hitting the bottom of your swing arc. Beyond the 5i we start to close the stance up to the Driver where we are trying to hit up on the ball. To read about the science of Stance Caddy you can find that here.
