Seems like a great idea to me.
Ben Hogan 5 lessons- ball position. Ball always in the same position inside the left foot move the right foot different position depending on the club closer for wedge a bit wider for each longer club.
Keep it simple, 😊
I've noticed this in practice, but I've always said to myself "No! I need to go back to the old position". Only because that's what I was taught years ago. I'm also experiencing something similar with my grip. Like most people, I've always used an interlocking grip, but over the past couple of seasons, I have experimented with an overlap or even a baseball grip and find those better. However, I'm still saying to myself that it's not alright 🤦
I discovered this on my own for the same reasons you mentioned. Thanks for affirming I haven’t completely lost my mind after spending lots of money on lessons that didn’t help. Fairways and greens, Russell
This is a good video. It will lead to one of two conclusions: (1) the golfer will learn to transfer his/her weight to the left side at impact, assuming right-handed, which is a good thing or (2) that chunk is going to get much worse.

Might work if all the clubs were the same length but the wedges and short irons need to be hit at or near the bottom of the arc, which is halfway between your feet and then gradually move the mid and long irons forward in your stance. Important to have someone evaluate your swing from time to time to ensure that you haven't developed any bad habits and then hit the range more than usual and you'll be hitting the ball better. This was my experience at the start of this season.
I was put through the rigours of this yesterday during my face-to-face lesson. I am woeful (at best) at squaring the club face and at 56 though I would never achieve this. 2 hours later I could and what a transformation. My advice is to make the effort to have a lesson (I drive for over and hour) because it is so worth it once you get the real person in front of you. Like most I was watching the YT vids for months so decided to invest in me rather than equipment. Good luck!!
Content wise… first really good video from Russ for some time. Something different from the same old same old. Great.
Damn this guy is good!!!
Just started trying this and works great on irons. Still need a lot of work with the driver. Great content.
I always kept them in me knickers
Recently i was looking at Youtube videos for senior golfers and long irons. The video said for 4-5-6 iron position the ball off your left armpit and amazingly it has helped massively. So much that I haven't used my hybrids as much and I'm hitting very high and pretty long straight irons. Sometimes a little more left but really great. So aurprising that I am going to have my 4 iron regripped and put back into the bag. Amazing. Now the short irons i havent used it but I will now.
This is interesting I think this is the first reco I've seen to move ball position forward with irons.
Jack Grout taught Jack Nicklaus this same lesson on ball positioning(full swing) and Jack was a pretty good golfer!
