If you don’t know if your lie angles are correct. You can do this simple test to see if your clubs are right for you.

This is a quick follow up to this weeks where Jake went over what makes your lie angle so critical to your game.

If you need a lie board for this test, you can order one on Amazon for about $15. Otherwise, you can ask a local pro to quickly borrow one of theirs.

If you’re hitting good shots but are still missing left or right lie angle might be the reason, and golfers never think to check it.

In this video, PGA Professional Jake Haime breaks down exactly what lie angle is, why it matters at impact and how an incorrect lie angle creates a directional bias in your misses.

If your backswing is being wrecked by an early sway, you’re probably trying to fix the wrong thing.

In this video, PGA Professional Jake Haime uses SmartMove force plate data to show exactly what’s happening in the backswing — and why telling yourself to “stop moving” usually doesn’t work.

What the data actually reveals is surprising: by the time the club is just six inches from the ball, the trail leg should already be pushing back toward the target as a braking force — not just receiving weight. That means a sway isn’t a weight problem. It’s a stability problem.

Jake breaks down what that looks like on the force plates, and then gives you a simple feel cue you can use on the range right away — no technology required.

Here’s a bonus Quick Tip from Jake from our putting green at the Kevin Haime Golf School.
