There are many members of the 'jedi' that are not.
Yoda, bless his heart, is NOT one of them.
I have had a lot of success with the one ball position concept.
I have had students win on tour and at every other level with this as the message.
Today I asked a VERY WELL RESPECTED GSED (NOT BEN DOYLE) what he thought.
He voted VERY STRONGLY for ONE FORWARD BALL POSITION.
...come on....make my day....
1. Due to the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum (6-C-2-B and 6-E-2), shorterclubs take less time to reach the In-Line condition from a given Release Pointthan do the longer Clubs. That is a scientific Fact.
2. This means that the shorter Clubs will become In-Line further back inthe Stance (away from the Low Point) and the longer Clubs will becomein-line further forward in the Stance (toward the Low Point).
3. Normally, that would mean that shots from the shorter Clubs would fly off tothe right because the Face would not yet have had time to square up. However, thewide Face of the shorter irons permits the Sweet Spot to be moved back a bitfrom the leading Edge. Therefore, Centrifugal Force squares the Face sooner.Hence, even though the Ball is played further back, with the Face is squaredsooner, the player experiences straightaway Ball Flight. This allows thePlayer the same Release Point Feel with the shorter Clubs as he has withthe longer Clubs, even though the Ball position is necessarily different.
4. This same 'Release Point Feel' leads many players to erroneouslyconclude that with the same 'Release Point Feel', the player can alsouse the same Ball location. Since this is not the case, and sincethe wide Face of the short clubs are specifically designed to square up soonerin accordance with the above stated Law of Physics, the player strugglesconstantly for consistency.
5. However, per 6-E-2, the player may play the Ball anywhere he wants, aslong as he adjusts the Aiming Point accordingly.
