Right hand drill and distance from the ball

I noticed today, that if I set with what appeared to me to be the toe of the club towards the part of the ball closest to my feet, that it was a little easier to maintain the right hand cupping and I was able to make a more aggresive hip turn without shanking. I guess my question is, should the setup allow for a small movement of the club head towards the ball? or will the hip turn acutally move the club head a little farther from your body then it was at address.

Re: Right hand drill and distance from the ball

I would want to see your spine angle at setup first. If you are too upgright, then ya, this might be the case. If you had a good angle and your arms where straight down and when you turned back and maintained that angle, you shouldn't have anything to worry about and where you set the club is where it would return.

A couple of days ago I tried setting up with the ball opposite the toe of the club ( 3 wood off the tee), and i felt i hit the ball much better, thinking that the club must be further away from the body on impact, and maybe stopping the odd shank off the tee.
