The distance you stand from the golf ball will vary slightly depending on the golf club you are using. The longer the club the further you stand away from the ball. So your golf driver is the farthest you stand away from the ball.

I hate to be using Tiger Woods so much, but Tiger has the best golf setup in the game. His posture, knee flex, head position and distance from ball is nearly perfect.

I am a firm believer that your arms should hang very relaxed from your shoulder sockets with most clubs. If you look at Tiger, he has a driver and the white line shows a slight angle from vertical below his shoulders. This is perfect for a driver. I also added a white line where your arms would hang with most of the other clubs in your bag.

You should NEVER stand so close to the ball that your hands are touching your pants. You will have no room to take your club back and to the inside on the takeaway. You will have to manipulate your hands away from your body. With this flaw you will no doubt come “over the top” on the way down causing a slice. At a minimum, give yourself one fist from your crouch to your hands and you’ll be fine.

One last golf tip

You should feel no tension in your shoulders when your in your golf setup, address position. If you do, they are most likely too far away from you.
