In this video series we’re going to be looking at a slightly different approach to how you should be using angle of attack. Now normally with iron shaft what you to be seeing is a descending angle of attack hitting the ball first and then the turf, taking that nice lovely divot sending the ball out initially quite low before climbing in the sky and getting it dropping down on the target with a nice amount of spin. As you start to mill to the top end of the bag however, what you might benefit a little bit more from is more of a sweeping motion.

Now a sweeping motion in a swing will decrease the angle of attack not take as deeper divots or if any they’ve at all but actually increase the initial launch, sometimes increase the amount of spin that you’re creating and give a nice high floating shot. So what we’re going to look is about how you can actually develop a sweeping motion in your swing. What size of shots you should actually be applying the sweeping motion to and the benefits and some of the draw backs that you may see. So let’s have a look at the sweeping motion.
