Hi Brian,
I spent an hour at the range last evening, working on nothing else other than your theory. I am rather confused and hope you might be able to answer the following.
While I did find an improvement, the one thing that baffles me is that with the mid
irons it seems as if this position is more like a driver set up. As we move the right leg out for the higher iron, it is impossible to feel that this is correct. I find it also leads to the hands getting too far in front of the ball. Now maybe I am not interpeting your suggestion correctly, or maybe I am too tuned in to the theory of centre of stance ball position? Anyway, if you can understand where I am coming from, I would appreciate your opinion. Brian, one other question: Is it not widely agreed that we use the navel, rather than the armpit to get basic ball position in set up?
Cheers,
Robert.
