distance from ball

[cccrj]

Is standing too far from the ball create a lack of distance? Or the hands set too high?

Re: distance from ball

Yes, absolutely

Reaching for the ball causes all kinds of problems. Mainly, you will tend to pull the club inside the swing plane, it gets stuck behind you and the you will need to come over the top to contact the ball with an outside in swing plane. Reaching for the ball creates a false sence of power. Arms should hang down straight from your shoulders or slightly extended.
