Expect heel-first contact when the ball is below feet

When the ball is below your feet, the club tends to catch the heel first, which makes you grip harder, so the instructor says to expect the heel getting caught. In practice swings she focuses on two setup keys, weight on the left and staying low, until you feel the heel hit the same spot over and over.
