This lesson from coach Katie Dahl is perfect for golfers — especially intermediate players — who want to add power and momentum to their drives off the tee. By showing you how to angle your toes properly, Katie helps you generate more force and transfer energy more effectively through your swing.
Key Takeaways
- Katie emphasizes slightly angling your toes (on your lead foot and/or your trailing foot) to help create a more athletic and stable stance at address.
- That toe angle encourages your lower body to load and coil — storing energy that can be released through the swing for more momentum.
- With toes oriented correctly, the ground reaction forces during the downswing become more effective — helping you drive through the ball rather than just swinging around.
- The tip encourages a smoother weight shift and better lower-body engagement, which leads to added distance and power.
