Ball Position

[eric54]

Could someone please explain to me the correct ball position for each club. My uncle claims i was playing the ball too far back but since moving it up it feels very strange and driver for example feels like the ball is in line with my big toe. I just want to make sure that what he is telling me is correct

Thanks

Two ways.

Constant ball position and the stance, and flaring the of feet can be adjusted (Hogan did this).

Or (here's what I do). Stance is minimally adjusted, but ball position varies from the center of the stance (wedge) to off the big toe for the driver.

Ball position is never placed behind the center of my stance.

I advocate a 'forward' placing of the ball for most shots. This lets me turn through the shot and allows a free and full shifting the of the weight.
