Subject: Ball position for driver and fairway woods

Do Golfers fitted for the One Iron system need to change ball position/setup for fairway woods and for driver?

We recommend a center of stance ball positions with all 1 Iron Golf clubs including the fairway woods and driver. Initially you may wish to use a slightly forward ball position with the driver until you become acclimated to single length play. The reason is simply that most golfers are used to a forward ball position with the driver and have developed a lateral sway to the right during the backswing and to the left during the downswing in order to catch-up to the forward ball position. To maximize your distance and accuracy you have to learn to completely eliminate this swaying to the right and left from your swing.

David, Thank you very much. Does this ball position, setup and swing produce optimum angle of attack for driver, fairways and irons?

Yes it does. What most amateur golfers do not realize is that fairway woods should be hit with a slightly descending blow, not simply sweeping the ball from the turf (hitting down makes the ball go up). The driver should be hit squarely and not on the upswing past the center of the stance.
