Kiwi, blatantly obvious that my alignments at impact were not as I intended. But thanks for your input.
like the nose on your face doesn’t mean it doesn’t work you know how to execute, go practice it

and that is the hardest part of golf, most courses are not flat, and even throughout, so you need to adjust for nearly every shot not off the tee, so my query is, how do you know where to move your feet, for each different lie? I usually figure it out on the shot after the duff, or skull, and then forget 5 holes later and do it again, costs me 5-10 shots a game……. What is the method for setting up correctly for on the various lies on a fairway? Ball above your feet? Below your feet? Sideways to your target? Thanks Hack for your prompt response….
Mick, the thing to understand is that if you change the effective lie angle, the ball will go off on a tangent. e.g. ball above your feet – because the club is being used at a flatter angle (flatter than normal level use), the ball will go left. The more loft on the club, the further left it will go. Ball below your feet – the club is more vertical than normal, the ball will go to the right.
Your options are to either direct your shot toward a different destination so that, after the effect of ball being above/below your feet, it actually goes in the right direction; or to open or close the club face to do the same thing. Just keep in mind that if you open the club face, you’ll need to use a less lofted club and vice versa.
If the ball is sideways to your target, you’d better move around the ball so that you are lined up correctly.

Oh, you mean a downhill lie?.. Align your shoulders to the downward slope of the ground and swing normally. Distance wise, you’re using less loft, so use a more lofted club.
If you’re hitting uphill, align your shoulders to the hill and use less loft.

I find it funny that people expect that because you have the face pointing somewhere at address it will be there at impact. A lot can happen in a back swing. What is this golf game you talk of? true stink what i also find it quite amusing is people dispelling in theory what works for me. Now stink has seen my draw and fade work, last fri arvo was the latest game we had and i had a nice 80 shots. he doesnt then sit me down and say “now look here shorty, you know what you are doing doesn’t work”….. If i was to start smoking i think they would be oh i don’t know.. Vanilla flavored i reckon
Yeah it works for you although the advice you gave won’t work for others because your not doing what you saying your doing either. The ball ain’t starting on your feet line as you suggested. Also the lack out power you have your face might be pointing about 1 degrees left of the flag at impact and your ball fades onto the pin. With stinks power the ball would start on similar line but fade 15 ft right of the pin or even miss the green right. The more power a player has the less amount the face needs to be to hit a slight fade. If they tried to fade the ball with the face as open as much as you do they would hit a massive slice and miss the green right.
The ball starts where the face points at impact, the amount the ball moves, depends on how much the face angle is open or closed to the golfers path and club head speed they produce and compression.

Zen thanks for finally acknowledging what i have been saying all along.
did it actually occur to you that my coach can see what im doing however to stop me getting bogged down with the all the mechanics that you constantly wank on about he has given me a simple task to do to take out the thought process?
Im longer now and moving it both ways isnt that what all players want to be able to do?
& just fyi stink is to head strong for me to advise, when was the last time he had a screen? last year?? year before?? he wont be back, another success story?? nope
& finally my coach is a AAA rated PGA member of which you aren’t & has a plethora of knowledge compared to you so i will run with him for now thanks very much.
lets hope Ben can see through all this and hit the ball both ways like i can, even tho it doesn’t work. apparently

Not just mags, Hack. But yeah, that’s all I’ve got.
The problem I have is trusting the adjustment. On the 17th at Emerald, 2nd shot into the green, ball is always above the feet. I can aim right of the green, make sure the club is slightly open, and still hook it left of the green. Sometimes.
