The difference this change has made to my golf swing is absolutely huge! I’ve changed how I stand to the golf ball by a small amount and the difference is huge! I am striking the golf ball so much better, striking the golf ball longer, striking the golf ball like the pros and so much further with both irons and driver! This drill is all about how i stand to the golf ball and this drill can be used for both driver and irons.
This drill has worked for all my clients no matter their age or ability! So many of my clients ask How Close Should You Stand to the Golf Ball? Is there a correct distance you should stand to the golf ball? how close to stand to driver? how close should I stand to the golf ball with driver? This video addresses these questions.
Golfers often have too much tension which means they often stand too close to the golf ball or too far away. Golfers, whether that be senior golfer, amateur golfer or professional golfer don’t fully understand whether they are too close or too far from the golf ball.
I’ve now changed how far i stand from the golf swing. This is simple golf instruction. A lot of golfers tend to ask questions like how to hit driver straight, this can be beginner golf tips or professional, but knowing how close to stand to the golf ball is so important.
This will cover, how to stop slicing the golf all, golf grips hand position, how to hit your driver straight,hit a driver for beginners,golf driver drills,golf driver tips,golf swing drills,golf grip replacement,hit your driver further,golf set up,how far to stand from golf ball.

One change with your feet makes the world of difference…who knew
Great help, 👍
Did a group session on holiday and it was suggested I do same with left foot but couldn't get a feel for how much to turn out, this makes it so easy to remember
Another great video
10 to 2 or thereabouts
While I liked the tip on adjusting stance, I found your tip on gripping driver with right hand first to encourage shoulder tilt a hidden gem. The only reason I occasionally hit a slice with driver is forgetting the shoulder tilt in my pre shot setup. This tip will definitely be part of how I setup. Thanks Alex!
Great info
I tore a tendon from the bone in my left ankle a few years ago on the golf course. Was picking up ball from hole and putter slipped and I fell. Anyway I have to open my left foot because I can’t go through to the front if I don’t. One question though is does it limit your backswing? Great video.
Last time Alex I commented on your ball positioning with the different golf clubs this time I'm commenting on your feet position with the golf clubs great stuff thanks for sharing.
Simple. Great tips
Doesn't BOOM BOOM set up with his left foot open? Love That Guy
When haven’t got flexibility does opposite restricts back swing as can’t get turn to right as much
Thank you very much for all your great tips!! I followed and practice them, specially the shoulder and grip, from shooting between 101 and 104 shots I am back at 91 to 95! Not to bad for a old duck like me!! 😹
Are u now not always aiming left ?
Alex my issue with the driver set up is i have to go or iv been advised from multiple lessons i need a strong grip so by reaching over with my right hand i struggle to get my right shoulder low.
Thanks Ale x well explained, I have Ben Hogan's fundamentals of golf
I have actually been doing this because of the same reason also I feel I can transfer my weight better not sure if you feel the same
Sörenstam, not Sörensen… 🙂
The YT ad of the next film completely covered the leg position in the iron swing. Well done…
I flare my front foot outwards 🏌🙂👍
Good tip, but you're still wearing that awful hat/cap!😂
I shattered My Left ankle Playing Ball ,3Surgeries and 5 on Left Knee with 3 Total replacements and if I flare Front Foot can get through Ball otherwise I step out ,Works!
Alex for a right hand player.. Do you think it OK to leave the right foot straight. I do that to stop over swing in the backswing
Question videos are great, but will this new version of setting up help me more to get a better turn in my hips and back onto my right side and down swing to a better finish on my left side?? Thanks
Enjoy your video great explain well 😀
