So Bobby, why not start the swing in the impact position? It seems to me that would simplify the ability to be there at impact.

I am having difficulty hitting the ball first and taking a reasonable divot with my 5 hybrid through pitching wedge. Where should ball position be at relative to position of feet and distance of ball from feet. Also, should I be focusing on the back of the ball?

I’m heading to Scotland to play some of the great courses. Last time I was there, I was having a terrible time getting out of those pot bunkers. Can you help me understand how to make the ball go up quickly to get over those steep lips?

Should my hands be in front of the club head when hitting a driver on the tee?
Barry,
Excellent question and one that requires deeper explanation of Dynamic #1, the flat lead wrist. The answer is yes, but can vary slightly depending on where the low point is with the driver. Dynamic #1, the flat lead wrist at impact gives the face the greatest stability at impact and thus greatest control. When looking at a photo face on, the lead wrist can be flat, but the hands may not appear to be much in front of the clubshaft at impact, due to the low point being at the ball or even behind the ball. Regardless of where the low point is or how much forward shaft lean exists at impact, Dynamic #1 is a key Dynamic to face control.

Rob,
The lead wrist is ideally flat at impact with all shots. I often discuss this Dynamic #1 with putting, since it is the first Dynamic in the Impact Zone and the game is best learned from the putting green back to the tee. The lead wrist should also be flat at impact in the full swing, to maximize face control.
