Hi,
I understand the aiming point concept (in front of ball) for all
full iron shots,with the ball lying on the ground..but when you strike the ball off a tee-peg with the irons or especially with the driver,where is your aiming point or,better,what is your
aiming point? (if any).
Regards

Hi Libero,

My take (and 50 cents will get you 1/2 a cup of coffee) .

Aiming point is not necessarily in front of the ball for all irons. Homer used the example of using the ball as an aiming point for a 5 iron (hypothetical). In this case, aiming point for shorter irons would most likely be in front of the ball and longer behind the ball.

However, I do believe Homer was dead on when he said your aiming point is best found through trial and error due to everyone having different handspeed, ball placement, etc.

Hope this helps.
