    What matters is where it is at impact. Zach Johnson lines up off the toe, Luke Donald the heel. Both are centered at impact.

    That's cheered me up smile.png


    I have always lined it up off the heel naturally and thought i was alone. Never realised until somebody pointed it out to me.

    If you spray foot deodorant on the clubface and then take a shot you can see the impact position on the clubface.
    Your clubs will smell nice too!

    or just get impact tape as I think that would be a lot cheaper although not smell as nice :D

    I remember watching a clip of him on YouTube giving a clinic and he told everyone watching do not do what he does. Something he said he's done all his life but doesn't advise is :D
