DynAlign Dynamic Pre-Shot Alignment
"Great feeling over the ball."
"This is a whole new room inside of your brain that you can lock this down. People think this is hard to do. It's not hard to do, it's simple to do. It's just a few steps."

Mark Immelman's podcast.
When archers aim at a target, they don't take final aim when first pointing an arrow at a target. The bow must be stretched and the muscles must increase their tension to stabilize the energy stored in the bow. Only then does the archer take final aim.
In putting, the popular technique of aiming a putter first, then building a stance while being careful not to disturb the aim of a putter, is like an archer aiming an arrow first. Putts can certainly be made this way but chances for misdirection are increased as force is applied to the stroke.
DynAlign aims the putter face, like an archer, as the final step before a stroke is begun. Only after the wrist, elbow, and shoulder joints, have been stabilized against random motion caused by force application during a stroke. The torso is supported by a stable base of engaged hip, knee, and ankle joints. See video below.
Fix Yips and More
My yips have been in the rear view mirror for a long time. Reducing excess range of motion in multiple joints makes it much more difficult for sudden jolts and jerks to disturb the club path or clubface alignment when force is applied to a stroke.
Putt With Any Putter Type
Stop looking for a magic putter, there are none. Apply DynAlign to any putter and gain control over the clubface alignment at impact.
Improved Distance Control
The pre-shot routine can provide a stable putting platform, which allows a golfer to fully use their dominant hand to apply and regulate force application during a stroke.
Soft End-Range Motion For A More Stable And
Repeatable Stroke Under Pressure
DynAlign dynamic pre-shot alignment is a method to reduce range of motion in joints for more repetitive and consistent motion of the arms and hands. A universal mechanical principle holds that there must be reduced range of motion between moving parts in any type of machinery so that a machine can operate accurately and repetitively. The steering mechanism and front wheel alignment in a car must not have excess motion in the system or a driver will need to make continual adjustments of the steering wheel. The human biomechanism can be made to function in a similar manner to a well adjusted steering mechanism.
In putting, range of motion of the lead hand, wrist, and arm can be safely reduced so that a stroke can be made on a stable path with the clubface remaining square to the club path throughout a stroke. Face alignment at address can then be more consistent with face alignment at impact.
