The Golfing Machine begins and ends with Balance.

Per the 45-item Mechanical Checklist of All Strokes (12-3-0):

12-3-#1 Stance and Balance;

12-3-#45 Body Position and Balance.

And per 1-L:

"Off-balance force is notoriously erratic."

Balance is the 'glue' of physics - efficient force.

Most certainly the vast majority of folks do not pay attention to balance as much as they should.

Monitoring balance - simply holding your finish until the ball lands - is a goal worth focusing on.

Eyes closed, 'swing' a heavy club back and through, back and through.

Those 'effortless' swings are the times you are really balanced, not the times you simply 'think' you are balanced.
