perseveringgolfer Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Just wondered what your average 6 iron speed is (if you know it, or 7 iron)? I think the tour average is 92mph 6 iron and 90mph 7 iron. I've no idea what I was in my youth but average 88mph with my 6 iron today in my 'mature' years. I'll take that if I can get decent contact. What's yours and are you a youth, middle age or mature?

But the rest of the distance were spot on from my before surgery on course numbers. Used to be 196 average with the 6. I’ll cut that out of the video and post it eventually.

golfertrb Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I'll be 48 in July and I swing my irons a bit slower after my back fusion but I'm in the neighborhood of 85-87 mph. I tend to hit a lot of iron shots with something less than a full swing because of wind. I've lived in Oklahoma since 2008 and I have become someone who tends to hit knockdown's quite a bit. I used to live in Florida and there I hit the ball high - a lot of target golf. My six iron swing was in the low 90's then on a full swing.
