Distance from the ball

Saw this little tip on YouTube today...

Seems like it puts me a bit further from the ball, however it doesn't look bad in the mirror

Is this how it's supposed to feel?

I think most people stand to close to the ball anyways, except for the people who stand to upright with there arms straight out. 

 

I know this is a problem for me, my hands are way to close to me, i've actually hit my right thigh before in a golf swing

this is over-complicating things.

 

just do a balanced comfortable practice swing, that takes a divot on the grass or does a brush on the mat... then just put the club head at where the divot or the brush mark is, that is the right distance to the ball.

 

got this from shawn clement.
