Traditional teaching states to open the stance more as the shots get shorter, and place the ball further back, even near the right foot, as the shots get shorter. I was under the impression that the TGM way was to place the ball left of the sternum, and with a parallel, straight stance, even with a chip shot.

Yoda, do you advocate opening the stance more and more as the shots get shorter? Is there a rule of thumb as to how open the stance, and alignment should be as shots get shorter?

Thx
