    Cheers, I put a 7 wood in my bag a few months ago and love it! I am putting a 9 wood in this weekend, hoping it will be an easy 200yd club.

    7 iron is my longest iron, 6-4 hybrids and driver. Never got on with woods off the deck. I love my 6 hybrid.

    I'm a trail leg amputee, learned to hit with my lower half static but it's a power killer! Trying to switch to the thunder step to get more out of the longer clubs! It'll come just have to exaggerate for awhile to get it.

    7 Woods are awesome good height, great carry distance land soft with minimal roll out. It has become one of my favourites in the bag 👍

    Pete, I love when yo get down on your belly to describe loft at 00:01:35. I thought I was looking at a Hobbit, holding up some human golf clubs. Great comedy. How did you come up with that?. Classic. Keep em coming.

    I like to have the swing thought of "it's a buttery 9 iron" when I have a longer iron in my hand. Helps me anyway.

    I don’t mind hitting my long irons, but I need to hit from 6 and down with a bit of a cut because I’m a natural draw hitter…if I don’t, then I’m guaranteed in the woods on the left. Don’t know if this is a phenomena or not. Pete?

      I found the same with my new clubs last year. Replaced the 4i with a 4h and I love it. It’s the most consistent club in the bag.

    5iron is EXACTLY where my game falls apart. 😂
    Here are my numbers, and they get hilarious, believe me; all numbers in metres total;
    •59°-90m. •54°-105m
    •49°-125m. •44°-135m
    •9i-155m. •8i-175m
    •7i-185m. •6i-200m
    •5i-200m. •4i-200m
    •3i-200m. •5w-220m
    •D-260m.
    😂😂 have look at those diabolical numbers once I get past a 6i. 😂😂

    • @ryanshafer10
      @ryanshafer10 22 дні тому

      When I finally got a decent swing I had very similar numbers. PW,9i, and 8 were the easiest and most consistent. I was using what felt to me like a tennis backhand to hit down on the shorter clubs and compress the ball and it worked pretty nice with the high loft clubs. As my swing got better the 6i or 7i range became a favorite. Got sort of stuck in the same pattern you posted. Then I started feeling a different wrist action on the 6i or 5i and when I embraced it the long irons came to like. The feel was in the wrists more like a forehand or hockey slapshot than a backhand like I was feeling before. I was delofting the shorter irons and then when I would do the same on the long ones I had no launch even on good shots. Hope any of that rambling might be useful to you in your next session lol.

      @@ryanshafer10 Hey thanks man! Appreciate it.
      I work in the golf industry and regularly hit the simulator, so I’m gonna try out your advice.
      I also think i might need some easier to hit irons under 6i to be honest. Bigger head, graphite shafts etc
      Thanks again!

    No amateur should have anything above a 4 iron.
