  1. Hello, I have a question that I have never seen anyone address on the internet, I'm pretty sure someone on here will have some ideas. On a normal inside targetline inside swing the bottom of the swing is the point where the club is farthest from the body and it is aimed at the target. It's recommended to play the driver forward to catch it on the upswing. It seems to me that places the ball outside the normal path. One would have to slide or make some other compensation on the downswing to hit the ball. Basically you would be picking up the path and placing it forward on every driver swing. One would have to groove that move and then not let it carry over to the other clubs. I think this is why I hit my driver so bad. I hit my irons fine but my driver is inconsistent. My solution up to this point has been to tee it low and play the ball for my driver at the bottom of my swing. I can hit straight doing that but I am giving up a lot of distance with all the backspin. Anyways that part of the swing after the club has bottomed out the club should be moving back inside. Without compensations the suggested ball position should lead to glancing blows off the toe. I think it makes sense to play the ball closer to the body where the club should hit the ball at that part of the swing. I'm not sure how much closer it should be though. Also if the club is square to the path I would hit pulls with this setup, so I would have to aim right. I haven't tried this yet. I have thought about it before but never could find in info that verified this so I pretty much forgot about it. Thanks
