  1. What about the great Lee Trevino that advocated most people would benefit from playing the ball further back. I know personally when I setup with this positioning things get sideways for me.

  2. If you move ball position on irons and still need low point ahead of ball; you need to change how much you shift left in downswing.

  3. Ball position is different based on height. I practice with the tiles for alignment and ball positioning everyday. It really does help.

  4. My issue is how far back from the ball do I need to stand? I feel like I’m always either too close and my arms are pressed against my body or I’m too far and have to reach and bend way over

  5. this is simply just not right, unless you want timing golf. noticing how the drivers setup comes out of nowhere like a long iron, it just doesn’t work like that for everyone. iykyk

  6. Hello Chris, what about head position? Should I keep my head behind the ball through the bag or just the longer clubs? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

  7. I don’t recommend but it’s so weird but I’m automatic when the balls in the back of my stance 😂

  8. I’m not entirely new to golf but it’s only my 3rd year, I’ve always kept the shaft a bit lined up straight down the middle instead of using the lead pocket tip in fear of closing the face too much. Is this key for consistency in all irons? Possibly wedges too?

  9. I intuitively saw this and told my friends I'm trying something new for improvement.

    Now I'm watching this and I'm on YouTube for more fascinating techniques to learn.

  10. Why would it be intentional? There is NO benefit to intentionally dropping that ball… so he already had the double play in the bag… but they are saying he intentionally dropped it to just get another double play? Thats stupid

  11. Seguta golf says the ball is always on inside left foot, the only change is the back foot. Further away the lower the club #

  12. I really needed this. I catch myself overthinking which leads to me absolutely striping the top of a ball.

  13. THANK YOU! I’m a +22 and I never know where to put the ball In my stance. Playing Saturday at my go to course, I’ll reply with my score using this new found knowledge

  14. I try to place ball inside front instep for all shots & move trail foot wider for long clubs & driver

  15. Aligning the grip with the lead pocket is a tip I had never seen until now and I feel like its gonna help a ton

  16. Newbie here…. Why is it we never talk about width of stance in relation to ball position. It would seem if stance is off, ball position would then be off.
