What a lively topic! I love hearing all these tips! How about when it rains? Does anyone have adjustments for different weather conditions?

23

Good point! In the rain, I tend to widen my stance. It helps with balance on slippery grass.

Iā€™ve been trying to maintain the same ball position for all situations, but Iā€™m starting to think itā€™s a bit too rigid. Is it too controversial to say that some flexibility might be necessary?

Controversial or not, flexibility is key! Adapting slightly with each shot can make a significant difference in performance.

One effective drill is the alignment stick drill, where you position an alignment stick pointing at your target to ensure your feet and shoulders are aligned every time you set up your shot.

Great tip on the alignment stick! Do you think this method works better on the range or during an actual round?

29

I find it more beneficial on the range. You can focus on repetition without the pressure of scoring. Plus, itā€™s nice to see instant feedback as you practice!

That makes sense! Maybe Iā€™ll set aside some time this week to hit the range and focus solely on that.

Has anyone tried filming themselves while practicing? Itā€™s a game changer to see what you might be doing wrong with your setup.

Iā€™ve done this! It really helps to catch awkward stances or movements that I wouldnā€™t notice otherwise.

Iā€™ve seen some great video demonstrations online showcasing the one ball position. Has anyone found a specific video that really clicked with them?

I have to say, watching ā€˜The Golf Coachā€™ on YouTube really changed my perspective on the ball position. I highly recommend it!

35

Itā€™s interesting how different coaches have varied opinions on the best ball position. Whatā€™s the consensus here? Are we all in agreement?

I think some variation is okay depending on the shot type, but the core concept of one ball position is solid. Letā€™s embrace the differences!
