Why am I hitting my irons off the toe?

[IndianScout]

were these clubs setup or built for you, I am doing this and come to find out my clubs are all wrong for me in the length/lie

Ok I give up, why are you hitting off the toe? I usually use the center of the club and watch the ball as it takes off on a perfect flight to the desired distance and lands softly on the green about a foot from the hole, tap in birdie and it's off to the next hole for more of the same

Hey Tiger, dont you have some hookers to be humping? ;)

No, but they are std length and lie which I have always played.

Hi Senorchipotle,

great post

I to play blades and struggle with this one issue most (toe hits) I have been fit for my clubs so I know that's not a likely culprit, Can you please elaborate on his post and specifically the part about pulling the hands vs pushing them?? what does this mean?? also whats a protruding elbow? thanks in advance

Just saw a great video that showed and explained a cause and a solution to this problem (which I also have).

Good tip.

Will try to keep my "target foot" on the ground a little longer than I have been. Hell, I even toe my chips!!!!!!!

I am left handed. I have always had to "reverse" the instructional tips.
