Question
There are two shots with which I’m struggling to get my swing bottom 4 inches in front of the ball: the uphill and downhill shots into the green. Should I be adjusting ball position for each?
Bobby’s Answer
Excellent question, Brian. The key to mastering uneven lies is to make sure your address position matches the lie. I explain in this video:

Bobby, I notice your right foot slips minutely clockwise as you initiate the downswing. I think this is actually a good drill to practice. Keeps the right heel down and facilitates a slide rather than a spin into the downswing.

I can’t seem to find a starter for my backswing. I stand over the shot too long, and I seem to freeze there. I’m 76 years old and play to a 12 index.

I’m pushing to the right with every full swing club in my bag. The ball flight doesn’t have much curve to it, like a slice. The ball goes straight, but to the right of my intended target. Help!

Can you help me with my aiming point for the fairway woods? I seem to be pulling or hooking, and this was not a problem before.

I have been pulling my shots way to the left of target. My ball placement is fairly even with my left heel. If I weaken my grip a little, I tend to push the shot to the right. I use a fairly neutral overlap grip with my swing speed of 94 mph.
Thanks so much for another Great Tip!

Professional cyclist🚴

I also struggle getting the swing bottom to go 4 inches in front of the ball on just a regular lie. What should be my swing thoughts? I am a female player with a high handicap.
My problem is with side hill lies with my feet above the ball. Any tips?
Thank you for this video. May I ask how to keep the ball from pulling left when ball is above feet. The opposite would be how to keep ball from pushing right when ball is below feet. Our course has a few of sideways hills and usually an obstacle between these hills and the green.
Part of the requestors question was regarding ball position.
You said “same position”.
But – in your demo it looked like for downhill the ball pos was maybe normal – just inside of fwd foot.
But on the uphill it looked back of mid betw feet.
Also in your demo the width between your feet seemed very wide on the downhill but more normal on the uphill.
Seem like small points – but maybe necessary to get the proper hip / shoulder position.
Pls explain.
