Changing Iron Swing to Descending Blow...

[lhagsjr]

For the 2 years I have been playing golf I have been swinging up on my irons instead of down which of course has made me incredibly inconsistent. Ive recently begun to try to change my angle of attack. It is VERY hardwork to do but its a must. For anyone else going through this, here is a great video with drills:

For me that would be hard to do with a half shot as I wouldn't feel like I'm really committing to the shot. I would pretty much already set my weight/ hips slightly forward and try to get over towards my front foot.

If you're hitting it fat(hitting ground before ball) you're probably swaying back or not set up right (which bottoms the arc out early), if you just practice not swaying then you should naturally end up with your weight forward.

That's what worked for me anyway .

How could you golf for 2 years "hitting up" on your irons? I would have gone crazy a month in and quit.

Guessing you mean scooping the ball?

Post your swing, and someone will probably comment on it. . .
