I address the ball towards the toe per 2-J-1...but still hit it 1/4 of an inch off center (driver) I started to hit them on the button once I moved the weight towards the heels for adjusted address in preparation for the throw out which moved my weight towards the balls of my feet at impact...then back to the left heel/right toe in the finish. I do not recall a thread on this topic...or a paragraph in the book that speaks to this. I am working VERY hard on impact/address alignments. This represents an important part of my pre-shot prep. I think starting with the weight on the balls of the feet promotes a slight OT move...and may contribute to a stuck right hip going back...and therefore a stuck right hip coming down. The weight I figure has got to move to the right heel going back...then move to the balls at impact...then to the left heel through the finish. Savvy?

Hard to say without seeing it . . . but if you do move towards the toes it could certainly bring the heel closer to the ball. But actually pulling out of it could do that too because the arms get longer earlier.

Lotsa stuff going on . . . or could be going on.
