Strike It Better To Play It Better
When hitting iron shots, pitch shots and chip shots, striking the ball correctly is the key to getting the ball to do what you intend. One of the things that I constantly check myself and for the players that I teach is their ball position. If the ball is in the correct place in your stance, then it gives the club the best chance to do what it was designed to do.
As an example, the ball should be positioned off the front heel for the driver and gradually move further back in the stance as the clubs get shorter.
For more information, please speak to Ady or Andy.
