Top 100 Teacher Reveals the Secret to Optimal Ball Placement
One of the most crucial yet often overlooked fundamentals in golf is ball position, and a top 100 teacher has developed a comprehensive system to help you find the perfect spot.
For your shorter clubs, like wedges, aim to place the ball right in the center of your stance. As you transition to longer clubs, gradually shift the ball forward.
Take your driver, for instance; it should be positioned just off your front heel. Meanwhile, with a 7-iron—the most versatile club in your arsenal—you’ll want it slightly forward of center.
This innovative system considers factors such as your height, posture, and swing style while allowing for adjustments based on the specific shot you’re planning. Get ready to elevate your game!
