Geometry of Standing to the Ball

Video taped my driver move this weekend . . . looks like I'm standing too far away from the pill at address. Is there a Geometric procedure for getting the correct distance from the ball. My hands almost line up with my nose. Should they be in line with the shoulders or what?

I have heard it said that the some part of the chest should cover the hands at address.

You know your impact fix (hands mid body, visually covering big toe).
You know the plane line you must trace with #3 PP.
Solve for the position of the hands at address.

(assume no shift in plane angle).

SEC is on the right track. 3-F-5 Address Routine, Forward Press, Zone #3 Rehearsal and Feel with Impact Fix verifying Six Alignments; EVERYTIME. Then Start Up from Fix or Adjusted Address.

Right boss . . . but I can Fix from several hand locations relative to where the arms hang from my shoulders right?

Go to Fix with...

Hands to Ball: Left Wrist is Flat, Level and Vertical, Right Wrist Bent, Level and Vertical: Wedges intact. Verify per 2-J-1.

Right Forearm Position: On Plane Right Forearm and Clubshaft, not arms hanging from shoulders. Check in a mirror so you can look, look, look.

Holla back (I am starting to sound like you ).

Hi Bucket, surely "adjustd address" is about keeping the stationary components of your "fix" in that position - your hands can do whatever they like... at least as long as they are visible to your playing partners....

Your impact position is determined by pp3 tracing and head - the hands are guided irrespective of where they start. LAG pressure guides them .... just put them somewhere at adjusted address that allows you to maintain plane alignments.
