I was wondering about setting up with impact hands. I know there is a you tube video about why Brian prefers mid-body hands. I have a hard time with mid-body hands because of the way I am built. It makes me set up closed and I either push, push-slice, or flip hook it most of the time. I have to scrunch my body in an uncomfortable way to use mid-body hands. I was wondering who sets up with impact hands and who you think should set up that way? Walt

Walt, if you play better with impact hands at address, play that way.
Nicklaus, Moe Norman, John Daly.... come to mind as guys that had the shaft somewhat up the left arm at address.
In most cases, it's easier to be at rest and balaced with mid-body hands at address. It also promotes more stressing of the shaft in the transition, but it's tough to argue with the ball stiking skills of the trio mentioned.
