Getting the Chair

Are you sitting on the key to improving your golf swing?

Consider the humble dining-room chair. One minute it’s helping you put a star on top of the tree, the next it’s bearing the increasing weight of your holiday indulgence. And the next, it could be helping to perfect your golf game.
