My question had nothing to do with divots, which is where this post seems to be heading. For all I understand so far, ball position and the length of the club one is using does make a difference on swing. Otherwise, the CONCEPT is the same. I also believe that I, and notice that i say I, have to divot to make the ball spin back in most cases. That being said, i feel i have a better chance to make good contact with the ball if i divot, versus scraping the grass. A divot for me is not essential, however is very valuable in telling me if i made an inside-out swing or an outside-in swing, also the depth tells me how close or far away i am standing from the ball. So a divot is a result of ball position and length of club for me, albeit an important tool. I'll try and keep my swing similar if not totally the same, its difficult enough about perfecting one type of good swing....
