Hi delboy,

just a little tip which my help. tpg1965 is right you may be standing too close to the ball. When you're set up and addressing the ball just let go of the club with your right hand (right handed players) and just relax it letting it hang straight down, your hand should not move any closer or futher away from the ball, but just go staight down. That way you can see if you're standing either too close or too far away from the ball.

Cheers, Ian
