Abstract
A golf aid has a compressible center shaped to fit comfortably between a golfer's upper arm and torso; and a slippery covering over the compressible center, such that the golfer must compress the golf aid in the armpit to prevent slippage of the golf aid. This enables the golfer to develop a consistent set-up and address posture with the appropriate tension in the correct muscles. This golf aid has been found to be helpful in correcting the golfer's swing and in improving the short game and putting.
