Hitting irons inside of center on irons

[patbrost]

I have been hitting my irons to the inside of center and sometimes an occasional shank(not very often)  I am actually hitting it pretty straight and decent.  However, I am guessing distance is not as great.  Any ideas on this?  Standing too close?  I have really been working on dropping the club to the inside and have really improved my striking with the exception of the clubface issue.

Any help much appreciated.

i do too, sometimes, especially with my pitching wedge.  i think i actually read somewhere that the true center of gravity is just to the inside of the geometrical center on the clubface.  i might be completely wrong tho...
