I hit every club in my bag well, except for my 3 and 4 iron. Most often I miss those two clubs off the toe, but I hit everything else - Driver, 3-wood, hybrid, etc - flush basically every time. I don't want to get another hybrid because I like the workability of a long iron and went I do hit it flush they're great.

So. Good swing, good shots with everything except 3 and 4 irons which I am hitting off the toe more often than not.

Thoughts? Explanations? Suggestions?

You're obviously a lower handicap than I, but are you setting up differently for those two irons?  If you post a photo of your set up for woods, 3-4 iron and say a 6 iron, maybe the instructors on the site may notice something.  A swing video would be better.

Try the tee drill! I had the same exact problem (and still sometimes do), but I found this drill very helpful.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
