Markelly82 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 I'm currently having some troubles with my iron play. Last year I bought some new shafts. My previous shafts were for Ping S55 with CFS 1.5 extended. The old shafts put way to much back spin on the ball. Did I mention I'm 6'5"? The new shafts were KBS 130 X. I left them a half inch longer rather than 1.5. I have a common miss where I'm hitting my irons off the toe and they feel like they're chunks. The ball is barely going any where. I don't have the money for a "proper" fitting, but I want to stop these nonsense shots. I know there could be many different various reasons why this is happening, but would like some drills to help stop this. Any help would be greatly appreciative. Quote Driver: G410 LST, 10.5 *.

Wedgie Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 This isn't a drill but I read recently that heel hits are often from clubs being too long or too upright a lie angle. Toe hits can be from shafts being too short or too flat a lie angle. Maybe the inch shorter club length is what is causing this.

RickyBobby_PR Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 As you mentioned there could be various reasons. Could be club length, could be steep downswing and so on. The key thing is to fix the cause notvthe symptoms. Having a video would help to see what’s causing it Quote Driver: PXG 0811 X+ Proto w/UST Helium 5F4 Wood: TaylorMade M5 5W w/Accra TZ5 +1/2”, TaylorMade Sim 3W w/Aldila rogue white Hybrid: PXG Gen2 22* w/AD hybrid Irons: PXG Gen3 0311T w/Nippon modus 120 Wedges: TaylorMade MG2 50*, Tiger grind 56/60 Putter: Scotty Caemeron Super Rat1 Ball: Titleist Prov1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
