So I showed this right A student two or three weeks ago I think it was three weeks ago and they came to me going Alex ball position does really matter like I’ve got to get a swing right well it does it seriously influences your swing we went through this exact process
Finding out where the ball position should be for the said Club ball striking just went off the charts off the charts and it did feel strange because it’s new but ball striking went off the charts now as you know as a PGA golf coach I teach hundreds of clients
When I show them ball position they’re like wow so I don’t you think of this as your official ball position for every single club for 2024 season so with driver let me show you what ball position influences so if we’ve got it exactly where we should have it right
Inside that left heel you can see how you can hit up on the golf ball okay so this is affecting our angle of attack now the more I move my ball back in my stance can you see how I reduce hitting up to then going to hit down on the the
Golf ball let me show you that again if I shuffle this way I now hit more up if I shuffle this way I now hit less up and then eventually hit down on the golf ball for that said Club so that’s angle of attack but I also said it affects
Club paths let me show you this now this bit might seem like a lot of information but it really truly makes a difference now your ball position has an influence on your club path and simply think about it this way the further forward our ball position goes in our stance the more
Likely you are to swing a little bit more out to in so have a look at this circle here the more we move the ball back in our stance look how now we access this circle a little easier now all I’m saying is it has an influence on
Your club path if you’re throwing it massively Over the Top This is going to reduce it slightly but what I want you to think about this is if you get this matched up correctly you can really see how you’re going to hit longer straighter shots so I’ve just shown you
There really simply how it affects angle of attack and how it affects your club path you will also notice that the later we hit it in the arc the longer we’ve got chat time to square that face and then the earlier we’re in the ark the
More likely our face is going to be open cuz the less time we’ve got to square it so let me show you now the official ball position list that you’ve got to follow for 2024 I’m going to show you this a few different ways one from
Low down and the other one from player account just so you can really see and you got something to copy perfect right also I have a putter in my hand because this is essential you get the right ball position for this so at the end of the
Video I’m going to show you exactly where you’ve got this because you think right putter is the most used Club in your bag so do not underestimate this ball position right so let’s go through the set now how I think about this is I just go through and think right okay if
I can get my even numbered clubs absolutely dialed in plus my driver then I just plug the gaps in my odds so really you’ve only got to imagine You’ got to get half your set right okay so let’s start off with pitching wedge now what I’ve done here is I’ve created a 1
Two 3 four five gold ball little drill where I want you to move half a ball further forward as you go from each Club so if we started with p wedge on the back golf ball then you would go into 9 iron 8 iron 7 iron 6 iron five iron four
Iron and then this last one would be sort of our three woods and hybrids and finally eventually hitting driver but let me just show you this now so how I would really hit some golf balls is I would have this out on the driving range
And then I would place my golf ball now for pitching wedge where the left golf ball is always sitting inside my left heel and this golf ball now is just back of middle so this here from player Cam and from low down is your official ball position for 2024 for your pitch and
Wedge to have a great influence on your Club face your angle of attack and your club path so now we’re going to go on to eight iron so remember go through your list so pitch and wedge nine iron eight iron so we would move that golf ball
Now here I’ve not moved my feet I’ve got the same position and because I’ve got a more stronger lofted Club than what I had in my pitching wedge I don’t need to one hit down on it as much and therefore it’s a little bit longer I also need a
Little bit more time to scrw up the face so I’m gradually moving this further towards my left heel SO pitching wedge 9ine 8 iron ball position and you can just see there that’s exactly where I need to put it so let’s swiftly now move on to our six iron so we’re on eight
Iron 7on 6 ion would be roughly around here can you see the influence that this guide has it’s the simplest way to know when you’re practicing have you got it right also take note of how this looks from the player cam you can just almost take a screenshot save this video as I
Said and just promise me at least once a month down the driving range throughout the season you’re going to use this video as your guide because you will need to reset this is something that I do so that’s our six time and finally let’s move into our for where we go just
Here this is our four IR remember pitching wedge 98 ion 7 ion 6 ion five Ion four iron and the next one along remember that would be simply our hybrids or five Woods or seven woods and then finally I mean just before that actually don’t get carried away Alex
Please take note of this one here again this is our four iron ball position if we had our driver we would keep exactly the same position with hold the golf balls but have our ball position inside our left heel to help us hit up the most
And I’ve also done a different video on t height but I’ve just got this te half a ball above the face for the sake of this video but you can see there from play Cam and from here that’s exactly where I would have that ball position and your official ball position with
Driver so you can see it’s so important to give you the right time to square the face the way I explain this to my students when they come if you think right let me grab my pitch and wedge and look at the difference in length that’s forine
Alex that’s pitching wedge look at the difference in length I thought that was a very long forine very long pitching wedge have a look at this pitching wedge okay so it’s got more Loft that means you want to hit down it’s a shorter shaft and one that sits more this way so
Therefore we need the ball earlier our driver is our flattest Club on a more sort of more down to the ground angle here this needs the longest time because it’s the flattest face and the longest Club so we have that ball as far forward as possible now I mentioned this at the
Start didn’t I putter let’s get this right because I just really think this is sort of a really overlooked ball position and I’ve got a little bit of a hack here that I do not all the time but like certainly on the practice putting
Green before I go out have a look at the this we don’t use them as golf balls anymore we just do it from dangling a putter from our sternum so address your golf ball and I want you to have it where if I just drop this down the ball
Is sat just to the left of where the middle of my sternum is now this really helps a slight upwards hit towards the golf ball okay I don’t want to be hitting it up too much but I certainly don’t want it back here hitting down so your little check is this boom perfect
And I’ll just show you this in player cam you can just see how the ball is slightly ahead you’ve now got for every single one of your clubs the official guide for 2024 the final thing that I would really just not forget here is with your wedges so like your specialist
Ones like your samand wedge and your Gat wedge they’re going to be on that back side of where you started with pitching wedge look at this as anything that’s a specialist wedge is to the right right hand side for a right-handed player and to the left hand side to for a
Left-handed player in your ball position thanks for watching and don’t forget to subscribe

Great content love these little videos
hi alex how would i go about having a lesson with you cheers Rob
Hey can you do a video for pulling shots on driver and irons?? Really struggling
It's getting to be golf time in my area! Snow is gone, and I'm back in class.❤I'm older and hopefully better!!
Well done alex 👏 😊
Legend mate. Absolute legend. Love these easy ideas. Keep them coming 👍
Hey Alex, been watching all of your videos and I can feel a massive improvement in my swing going into my second season of golf! One question, are your feet moving forward/backward depending on the club or is the only thing changing the ball position?
🏌🏌🏌🏌🏌 🏌🏌🏌🏌🏌
Looking forward to trying this on the range. I know I struggle with ball position as contact is not always consistent. This could be the missing link!
Would your stance width be the same with all the clubs?
Quite interesting, moving the ball back makes it easier to draw, it explains why I drive with a closed stance, that makes it easier for me to eliminate my slice, closing my stance I believe (now that you mention) probably moves the ball back from heel without me even knowing it.
Great video Alex..thanks for sharing
Hi Alex , what's your thoughts on shaft lean position for the irons ? I was taught to have a slight lean on the irons , especially for 7 .
