I have one of those angled mirrors that I use at home. I used top put a piece of tape on the mirror where I see the club plane. I then watch on the take away to make sure I'm staying on or near it.

Is there a difference between using an angled mirror and a flat wall mirror? Does it matter?

An angled mirror is going to effectively change the position from which you're viewing your swing.

The same applies if the mirror is angled left or right. Parallax, basically.

The distance from the mirror affects this, too.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.
