I am just starting to learn golf, I can’t afford lessons right now so I turned to the internet. I am doing ok with my woods, but all my irons seem to go the same distance, anybody know of anything that can help me get the proper ranges from my clubs?
I am playing with a set of King Cobra II Oversize irons, Walter Hagen 10.5 driver and a Slazenger 3-wood (can’t remember it’s loft)
As a beginner, don’t worry about it - in fact there is no point in carrying a full set of irons in your bag and most starter sets have only odd-numbered clubs for this reason. Do yourself a favor and just carry 5/7/9/SW or 4/6/8/SW. Your bag will be lighter and you’ll have less choices to make.
(Even experienced players have trouble hitting good 2 and 3-irons from the fairway. Leave them at home for awhile.)
As far as distance goes, I’m guessing you’re kind of hitting low screamers, no matter which iron you use. As your swing improves you should start getting more heighth from your high irons, which will naturally shorten their distance.
One important tip: Don’t swing harder with low irons, trying to make them go farther. The loft of the club will eventually take care of that automatically. Your job is to have a smooth swing with a good connection, no matter what iron you are using. Swing SMOOTH, not hard.
Another tip: Focus on doing a three-quarter swing. Almost all beginners take the club back too far (and bend their left arm). With a shorter swing, you generally get a better connection at impact. Any pro can smack the ball 350 on a driving range, but they deliberately choose to restrict distance in favor of control. You should do the same - short, controlled swing!
Good luck and have fun.
