Subject: Ball Positions

Need some direction and advice……so my ball position with my New and awesome Blackstone irons is in the middle of my stance as instructed. Being a new single length player, I wanted to know if my ball position should change from the middle if I’m hitting from an uphill or down hill lye, or if I’m hitting with my feet above or below the ball on the course? Any guidance would be appreciated.

And on a side note, I played my first round of 18 holes this season and with the Blackstones for the first time Tuesday and I literally took 13 strokes off my best score from all of last year with conventional fitted clubs! Amazing how incredible these one length clubs are. And what a lie that is said by most of the golf world that the lower iron one lengths won’t go as far as conventional because they are shorter. I was smashing the Blackstones 3 and 4 iron over 200 yards straight onto the green. Most of the time with my fitted waste of money fitted clubs I could barely hit the 4 and 5 and when I did hit one perfectly in the sweet spot it did go as far or as straight as the Blackstones.

Thank you One Iron Golf for making golf fun and enjoyable again!!!!!! You are an amazing company!!!!!! You have a customer for life!

Jay,

Basically, you want the ball position right at your center of gravity. On a flat lie it would be right in the middle of your stance, but on an uphill or downhill lie your center of gravity will shift. You should then position the ball accordingly keeping it in your center of gravity.
