Hitting a golf ball is termed in to three types. They are the pre-swing, the full swing and the putt.
The pre-swing
To hit a pre-swing golf player starts with non governing side of body confronting the target. Body will be kept parallel to target line. Feet will be kept at shoulder width for putters and middle irons. For short iron it will be 2 inches and 5 centimeter narrower and for long iron it is 2 inches and 5 centimeter wider. Ball will be placed at the centre of players for short irons and one inch and 3 centimeters to the front from the center for middle irons, long irons and woods. Most of the weight is given on the front foot for short irons, equal weight for both feet for putters and middle iron and most on the back foot for woods and long irons.
After coming to these positions golfer selects one of the grips among The Overlapping Grip, The Interlocking Grip and The Ten Finger Grip to hit the ball.
