Before you strike a golf ball, it is important to remember to stretch! Why? Well, consider this:

• - Before you even begin swinging, many of your muscles are under a lot of stress (think of the position of your body at address).
• - Also consider you are about to swing a club at  80+ mph, while maintaining this seemingly awkward position.
• - Plus, stretching decreases your chance of injury and helps promote a more fluid golf swing.

I love this quick video from EliteStretching: Stretches for Women Golfers.  Take a look and give these easy stretches a try the next time you step up to the tee box.

Do you have any other stretches you do before or after a round of golf?  Let our readers know!
