In this section Bobby Edridge makes an introduciton and talks about where the golf ball goes in your stance when you are using your driver. He also talks about the practice of some golfers to plant their feet whenever they land when adressing the ball without taking into careful consideration that the ball placement is important in doing a driving swing.
In this section, Bobby Eldridge will show you the proper way to get the ball into the correct position by aligning the ball into your left heel. If you position the ball too far forward in your left toe you shoulder will aim too far to the left which is also the direction of the ball that will travel when you hit it. On the other hand, if the ball is too far back in your stance you will be aiming way off to the right.
