Consistently hitting it on the toe and need a fix

I am hitting it off the toe quite a bit and can figure it out? I would say 6 out of 10 times. I am a 20 handicap. I am starting to see signs of wear on my irons from hitting it out there so much. Any insight is greatly appreciated.

at set up try putting the ball towards the heel of your club so at impact (with same swing) the ball will end up in the center of the club. Also could be because you are standing too far away from the ball causing you to pull the club in more at impact. That is my quick fix

 

If those don't work it may be something with your swing and may have to post a video of your swing at have people comment on how to help.

Can and will do. I will make the adjustments as well as tape the swing. Thanks

You may want to look at your spine angle as well.  If you start to stand up on the downswing it will cause toe hits.

I started back playing last fall after 12 years off. I was having trouble hitting everything off the toe. I tried addresing the ball on the heal moving closer to the ball, and nothing worked. I finally figured out that I was putting to much weight on my toes at address, then during my backswing I would rock back onto my heels pulling me away from the ball. I started lifting my toes when I address the ball to make sure I was putting my weight on the balls of my feet and not on my toes and started hitting to ball in the center of the club face.

You were fitted for these clubs or they are just out of a box?  Your height?  The distance from the creast in your wrist to the ground?
