I am hitting my short irons with a very high trajectory.and my divots point to the left. All my other clubs are fine and even have a slight draw, which I assume means my swing is on the correct path for them. Does anyone have some insight as to what may be wrong?

Thanks, I will work on my swing. Do you think I need to move to a R Flex shaft to get to the numbers you suggested.

Saeve125, I do have an over the top move that comes form in my opinion of trying to swing to fast. Could you give me what a better launch angle would be, and smash factor. From what I read from you you are not suggesting I go to a R Flex.

I am torn between what shaft flex I should be playing. I went through a Bridgestone ball fitting on 6/15/2011 and had the following results. Swing Speed 98.0 MPH Ball Speed 133.8 Launch Angle 1.2 Back Spin 3,197 RPM These were with the use of a Callaway 9.0 degree driver with a stiff shaft. Since then I have purchased a 10.5 degree Cobra AMP with a stiff shaft. I hit this club with a slight draw. My misses seem to be a pull hook. I will tun 66 at the end of this month and I feel I am not swinging at the speed needed for a stiff shaft. However, I am hitting this decent. I would like to know the advantage of going to a regular flex shaft and how it might benefit me. Would I get more distance and control?

Just looking for input on the following. Should I take a lesson before looking at buying new equipment or should I purchase based on a fitting that would have swing problems.

I have seen it on video.

I have noticed that my hip rotation stops before I get to impact and I slide forward more to the target from that point in my downswing. Could this be the cause of my swing path from the outside?

Thanks for the info. I will work on the advice given over the winter.

I was measured by Bridgestone at their ball fitting and these were the results: Clubhead speed 98.0 MPH Ball Speed 133.8 Launch Angle 12.2 Backspin 3,197 RPM Any thoughts on how I can possibly reduce my backspin rpm"s. Also I have a slight over the top move on the downswing.
