HOW TO FIND YOUR BEST BALL POSITION

November 19, 2024

Katongo Chama, an instructor at the Keiser University Golf Coaching Center, shares her passion for teaching golf to students of all ages. Her day involves setting up classes and working with students ranging from 2 to 78 years old. Katongo finds joy in watching her students, some of whom have been playing for decades, discover new aspects of the game and apply what they’ve learned. Seeing children hit their first good shot and become hooked on the sport fuels her dedication to making golf a fun and accessible experience for everyone.

Ken Martin, PGA Member and Golf Program Instructor at Keiser University’s College of Golf, shares valuable tips on how to find the best ball position for different types of golf shots. In this video, Ken explains the importance of ball position relative to your swing center and how it changes with different clubs.

He discusses the descending angle of approach needed for wedges and irons, a level approach for longer clubs like fairway woods, and an ascending angle for drivers when the ball is on a tee. By adjusting the width of your stance and the position of your trail foot, you can ensure consistent ball placement to match the club you’re using.

 

Ken emphasizes using a ball position three inches inside the lead heel as a simple guide for setting up shots with different clubs, leading to better consistency and control.
