How to practice golf
Good golf is not about learning to take your range game to the
course... it's about taking your course game to the range.

iron play
For short to mid irons (sw to 7 iron) the ball position should be in the centre of your stance. The ball should be put progressively further forward in your stance as longer irons are used, finally being opposite the left heel with the driver. Ball position gives the player a consistent angle of attack and creates the desired ball flight trajectory. During the swing the clubhead naturally reaches its lowest point just left of the centre of the feet, and therefore with the longer irons (and more so with the driver) the ball is struck more on the upswing helping it to get airborne and reducing backswing so as to encourage more distance.
