iron hozel impact

[c_mack9]

i normally hit my irons with a pretty decent outcome, but for some reason i hit them near the hozel. why am i getting a decent outcome? how can i hit the ball in the center of the clubface more often?

Hard to tell without seeing you swing.
1) You could be too close to the ball.
2) You could be too far away from the ball and reaching for the ball with your club.
3) You could be the right distance away from the ball and reaching for the ball with your club.

I read an article in the golf magazine saying that most irons except 'Players' Irons have a bigger sweet spot closer the the hosel rather than the center

Remember the sweet spot on an iron isn't in the geometric centre of the clubface. It is actually on the lower part of the club face and slightly towards the heel of the club.

well that helps cause it seems like i get my best results when i hit it there. thanks guys, looks like i dont have to work on anything, now i can focus on fixing my F'ed up driver swing.

When you say you hit them near hosel - you hit sockets sometimes? Or are you really just concernd about getting the sweetspot of the club. If so, i guess previous posters already answered that question.
