How To Hit Irons Pure - Improve Iron Contact

Everybody wants to hit their irons long and straight like that with little effort. The best iron tip I can ever give you is understanding how to hit the ball in the center of the face every time. Now, of course, you hear Tiger talk about that all the time, and he makes it sound so simple. Just, you know, hit the ball in the center of the face and the golf's really easy. Well, the reality is, the reason that most golfers hit the ball in the center of the face is because they're moving incorrectly.

Now, that's a pretty obvious statement, right? You see golfers all the time who are losing their balance and all of these things, but the reality is, real speed in the golf swing comes from just your wrist. About two thirds of your swing speed actually comes from just how you release the club. What you want to understand in the golf swing is that in order to hit the ball consistently in the center of the face, that you need hand speed. And the reason that is, is if you have good hand speed or how fast your wrists release, then your body doesn't have to work so hard, because that's what you see all the time.

When golfers who swing really aggressively, but they don't hit the ball anywhere and they fall over, they lose their balance. When you see somebody who swings really efficiently, they never struggle to keep their balance. That's because they're releasing the club correctly. The release is the golf swing.

It's the most important part of the golf swing. And it's why you hear golfers who are great golfers, like Tiger, talk about. All he really focuses on is not body speed, but hand speed. But the problem is most golfers don't really know what hand speed is. They think in order to swing really fast, they've got to move their hands really fast. And they interpret what Tiger is saying as that is hand speed. How fast I can move my hands from the top of the swing back to the ball. That's not what he's talking about at all. Hand speed is how fast you release your wrist.

That's where all the speed comes from. Understanding how to get the club head from this side of the ball to that side of the ball is the key to good iron play. Because when you're moving your wrist to release that club head correctly, you're not having to move your body all over the place so fast. That will cause you to be very inconsistent because you'll lose your balance and you'll, you'll hit the ball all over the face to hit the ball right on the screws right in the center of the face.

A unsolicited endorsement from me. Was a member for 7 years, improved dramatically using the huge library of video’s on the site, but eventually plateaued so decided to try other methods. Have chased those for a couple years and never really improved much more. More importantly for me, at 66 and playing 4 times a week now, his technique is way easier on the body than the others I tried. Now getting the “effortless” part of his method fully incorporated is not easy. I finally have done it after a lot of work at the range, but it really does work, and you’ll hit the ball just as far as any other method and much more consistently. So well worth joining if you really want to improve your swing, reduce after golf soreness, and end up playing better golf.

Every video you should talk about the centerline . When you brought that up it really clicked for me I stop bending my elbows to early .

But yea the center line allows me to repeat the same shot

Does the same principle of wrist speed release apply to the driver as well?

Chuck, you could of gone big time on the tour. I always believed you had the swing to take you there. What happened? I'm guessing injuries, family commitments. Anyhow, you've been a great instructor all these years, and for that we're all grateful. Truly, Richard.

Awesome stuff. Does this apply to both lead and trail sided swings?

I just imagine I'm trying to beat a rug on a line.
