I have seen various methods for locating the postioning of the hands and arms away from the body. The most common is a fist or a extended hands width from your thighs which you set when the the shaft is parallel to the ground and then you bend from the hips. Is this the best way to do this?
I bring this up because I get lazy at times and have my hands so close I do not have any room to swing my arms. Yet when I spot it I can tend to get them out too far. Also one could take a more uprigt posture and just extend their hands and get similar distances but different postures.
Ken Venturi on a tape said to experiment with distance from the ball and when you get repeated solid hits measure it and practice with those measurements.He said to do it for every club.
The Vision Track has measurements for each club but I don't know if body shape (beer belly etc.) affects that distance and how they knew how to mark this.
Interested in readers experience and methods in what I believe is a very critical setup measurement.
