hands at address

[wingback]

my ball striking in the last few weeks has been the best ive ever achieved through the bag, I put it down to a minor tweak at address, I was catching the ball of the toe with my irons and  ive always rolled the club open to start the backswing, the change I have made has helped cure both faults.I became aware that I was reaching for the ball with my arms at address this was causing the roll, creating also a very flat backswing, simply allowing the arms to hang vertically down at address ie moving the hands closer to the body seems to have sorted my swing out, strikes are out of the middle and the whole swing feels more stable and rhythmic.Im sure the new address position has drastically helped my backswing and somehow the overall feel of the swing motion.

Does it feel like you are crowding the ball more with this change?
