I agree Bigwill. It's a mistake to make direct comparisons.
Being in the so-called "athletic position" usually relates to those sports where the ball is moving. When you are on your toes, you are preparing to run to a moving ball (baseball, tennis, basketball, & football). Knowing that walking and running are uncentered endeavors (controlled falling), golf is the opposite. Golf needs a center and balance. And, golf begins with a stationary ball.
