Swingspeed - irons

[Golfer71]

I see lots of threads about driver swing speed. I've no idea of my driver swing speed but with a 7 iron I average between 70 and 75 mph, is it possible to extrapolate that to estimate a driver swing speed?

Cheers,

Hello!

I have been using the medicus sensor for 2 weeks or so. So far, i have found out that the differences between medium irons and the driver are not as big as you could expect. This is my case:

5 iron: 85-88 mph
3 wood: 95 mph
Driver: 96-97 mph

Considering that the driver is a much longer club than the 5 iron, would you expect much faster swing speeds? Well, numbers tell...

Thanks for your response, i'll hazard a guess from your response that my own driver speed will be about 85mph.

Cheers,

Thats about the same as mine with a 7(73-76), I carry it about 140 averag, max 7or eight yards more, and my driver swing can go from my average 90 to a max of 95. Avg carry 205-210, max 220.
