When you picture an iron shot flying out towards the green like this one in front of me. You probably picture it soaring up nice and high over the bunker or the water hazard landing on the green a little bit of spin once bounce and stopping next to the flag. It's not a shot you feel capable of playing because you're eying shots always fly to land on the green or roll over the back of the green. We might consider why your eye is flying too low and how we can correct that you got to consider that each eye and should have a slightly different and distinctive pull flight pattern to the previous eye in the bag starting with a low in them but clubs should fly lower on the higher number of clubs and wide you should fly higher.
So for example the 3 iron might fly like this full$56789.00 wedges gradually increasing as in height because we have gradually on the but if you feel that it doesn't matter walk club you hit the thing still goes too low and too far forwards and therefore doesn't stop on the green with enough spend we might consider what the issues are the 1st issue could just be you not getting a good enough strike. You feel hitting and topping the ball you will get a very low running shots but I feel striking the ball cleanly and accurately but you're still not hitting the ball the right height. We could consider why that is and it might be that as you're setting up to the golf ball you're not getting enough loft on the club or you're not getting enough spin on the club generally speaking aloft in the spin of the 2 factors of how high this ball flies it could be that the club head is de loft to the point of impact. The hands are too far ahead the ball is too far back we're hitting down too much we're not generating of club head speed. Lots of different factors can cause this low iron ball flight and this next little series of videos that's one thing we're going to work on how we can increase your height with your irons and get better shots into the greens.
