Great questions guys and thanks for the comments.
If this ball position is not working for you and you are hitting fat shots its going to be because of two issues in your swing or a combination of the two.
1 - Hanging back in the downswing on the back foot or 2 - flipping the club.
In these two cases its ok to have the ball position a little back but by playing the ball back in your stance all you will do is reinforce those faults. Better ball strikers shift and rotate into the lead leg (left leg for right handed players, right leg for leftys) and the ball position is forward to accomodate that shifting.
Hope that clarifies.
