Nick Price also leaves the ball in the same position and just moves his right foot further away for longer clubs. He has the ball just ahead of center.

The Hogan book mentioned also has a version out by Leadbetter where aswell as Hogan's instruction he gives his insight aswell with some views on what won't work for everybody etc. (I've just ordered it).

I'm only a beginner myself but my advice would be never to take anybodys tips as gospel. If somebody tells you to do something a certain way and it just isn't working for you then don't stick to it.
