Aways make sure your stance is correct, line up the mark on your golf ball with the flag on the green or where you want you ball to go. Your feet should be pointing in the direction that you want your golf ball to go, if you place a golf club on the ground running parallel with the mark on the golf ball both should now be pointing to hole or where you want your ball to go. Now make sure your shoulders are also pointing in the same direction you can always place a club across your chest to check this.
