I realize this is not the norm. But, does anyone use different swing methods depending on the type of club you are using? I was thinking of trying a best of, of swing methods. For instance, I swing from the ground up with driver on the through swing and short irons and chips, I pull it through with my left hand. The opposite doesn't work. I can't pull the hand through with the driver nor can I swing from the ground up with a 9 iron. Don't flame, me. Just thinking out loud, lol!

Whatever feel works for you I guess, but feel ain't real and it's likely your swings with your driver and short irons are similar despite the different feels.

The OP, and I have basically the same swings per his discription. I just think the two swings are not that much different. The length of the club defines the smaller (?) difference in the impact positions.

The "pulling through" sensation is just more prevelent with the shorter irons.
