I am currently having the tendency to hit the ball generally a groove low of the sweet spot on most of my irons, generally the shorter ones(PW-7) I feel like I'm putting a solid swing on them and I take divots on most all my shots and I still never quite make solid contact. This is really bugging me out on the course and I cant quite figure it out on my own. Any suggestions?

EDIT**

By the way even when I make thin or a groove low contact with the ball it has a high trajectory, it just comes up short.

Make sure you feel the weight transfer to the left side as your hips clear. On short irons, you might try hitting a few with your shoulders more level at set up. We get used to pounding drivers, but the iron swing really is still a decending blow.

before you hit your irons make sure that your arms are extended to the ground but don't allow your arms to become tense. another trick is to push down on the irons slightly brushing the grass on your initial move back and this will guarantee that you will come back to the ball solid and not hit it thin.

Also, make sure that your base is solid and you are not swaying away from the ball. another trick is to practice your short game because it is a mini full swing and the pitching drill will focus on making solid contact and not hit it thin.
