Perfect, perfect, perfect ! I hardly use my driver these days as my 5 iron, 4 iron and 3 iron gets me in the fairway more often. If I can get 225 , 240 and 250 plus with my 3 iron happy days. Great vlog I’m going to tweak my setup this weekend especially the feet pointing slightly right & left 👏🏽

I used to not be able to hit my long irons for shizzle, but now, after thousands and thousands of swings, I finally can crush them most of the time and it feels really good. I learned a tip from you mr. Short game that has helped me more than most any other and it was a video you put out a long time ago about taking the club back. You suggested feeling like you're almost dragging the clubhead back and letting it feel like it's lagging behind the grip and shaft just in that first 10 inches or so. That one thing makes sooo many good things happen and if more people would just do that it would help them so much. One thing it does very well is help you get that whipping action. That really helps with speed and your whole kinetic chain. Thank you Mr. Short Game!

Matt love this video the hands and the back foot ,perfect, I totally get what your teaching but I'm a low teen HC and I would love to hit a 5 iron like my 7 or 8 iron just get to the ball and hit it , in my head once I see long iron I automatically think swing hard it's unbelievable that thought pattern, so as you can figure Fat, Fat shots because I'm swaying from the extra thugness, now a 4 or 5 hybrid no problem 180,200 most of the time very easy shot, but forget all that I want nothing more then to get up at the ball with a 5 iron and have the confidence like a 7 iron, totally running with these tips you put out there and going to learn how to hit longer irons tired of this bulls,,,,,,!

@davidterrie76612 жыл бұрын
Solid fundamentals are key. I'd also add tempo. Unless you're prime Tiger, swinging all out at a long iron is a crap shoot. I like to think 7 iron tempo. Let the club do the work. When I was a kid, and the ball didn't go so far, we hit long irons all the time. Familiarity builds confidence, but you don't hit them as often in today's game, which is why many players today think they're too hard to hit.

@wallstreetoneil2 жыл бұрын
I would argue that the vast majority of the golfing world because of skill & clubhead speed would be better to have both their FEET AND their SHOULDERS slightly open to the target so that they can play a soft fade that starts left of target and works back towards the target. If you do as suggested and align your shoulders at the target, you guarantee that 99.999% of golfers will either miss right or go over the top and introduce too much curvature or both. Far better to embrace a soft fade with long irons and aim slightly left
