2. The correct ball position for a driver is near your outside foot. This is your left foot if you are a right-handed golfer, and right foot for left-handed golfers. Keeping this ball position will allow you to strike the ball on the upswing and get the most distance in your shots.

3. Your middle irons should have a ball position equal to about one or one and a half ball lengths from the center of your stance. The divot you take in this ball position should be a little bit more shallow than with your short irons.

4. Your short irons and wedges, including the sand wedge, pitching wedge, nine iron, and eight iron, need to have a ball position near the center of your stance. These golf clubs must be swung at the steepest angle since they are the shortest. To test and see if you have the correct ball position for your short irons and wedges, make sure you are taking a divot that is directly in front of the golf ball, not behind it.

5. Lastly, long irons and woods should have a ball position a little closer to the middle of your stance than the ball position for the driver.

Learn these ball position golf swing basics, and you’ll be playing with more confidence and lowering your score significantly.
