HOW TO LOWER BALL FLIGHT // Increasing iron distance with better technique
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 бер 2022
- As a follow up to his 2022 iron fitting, Ian helps Ryan work on improving his swing dynamics to better control the height of his ball flight.
By using a series of simple drills Ian helps Ryan gain control of his dynamic loft to add more ball speed, create lower spin and help him control trajectory with his irons.

This exact drill is what I have been working on lately. It has helped my ball striking tremendously. I have even begun to control draw and fade more actively with the flight as well.
Maybe, after a few more range sessions, I'll feel confident enough to setup those low draws or low fade shots around obstacles.
Thank you for helping me see what I was doing wrong. Can't wait to take this information out into the range. Much appreciated gentleman. I'm loving the new content.
Damn, they got the Supreme launch monitor 🔥🔥🔥
Im glad someone else noticed it😂
This is exactly what I am fighting at the minute, lovely when it works but prone to hitting it fat which when the course is as wet as it is in the UK at the minute. The big problem is off a mat you have a safety blanket.
Ian, you are a god send! I've been hitting balloons for years without knowing why I produce too much dynamic loft! Finally I can match my driver bombs with some really solid mid irons and get scoring on the par 5s! Two thumbs up
Ian your knowledge of the swing rivals your knowledge of clubs! Love these instructionals!!
Thank you! My swing speed numbers and ball speed/carry numbers have never matched up due to excessive height. It's so good to see and hear a solution that isn't all about moving the ball back in the stance.
These two videos have been a game changer! Thanks for continuing to provide helpful and useful content!
Great to have our Canadian friends joining us for the Florida swing! Even better to see how to go from the fitting to the course and see the reality of the work it takes to get the swing right after getting the sticks properly set up.
Great, great timing with this video. I just went to my first TXG fitting with Dean and I had this same problem -- too much loft at impact causing too much height and not enough ball speed (I also added a good, consistent straight pull:)). I've always had an issue with trying to get forward shaft lean at impact and getting to my lead side, and I think this is a great video for that drill. Cheers guys.
I love the way this channel is going. Instructions with launch conditions from the testing is a really fresh take
the supreme sticker on the quad is hilarious😂
This swing is so me same numbers too. I've been working on turning more central then start the down swing with a little knee pump,it's moved my low point much more forward and I've now gone from 150 with my 7iron to 165. Great video so many people could learn from this.
What a great video. Very timely. Can't wait to take it to the range. I have the same problem, releasing and flipping the club early. The diagnosis makes perfect sense, keep turning to avoid the flip. Keep up the great videos guys!
I’ve been working on the same with the same practice idea with my coach the last couple of weeks. I see a huge change in ball flight, strike and distance. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Great video! I relate to Ryan’s numbers. I need to get more of what you’ve shown him here Ian. Cool to see the numbers change so much as well
So many golfers can benefit from the gems Ian has been sharing
in these latest vids. RB's swing is very relateable, too.
Can't wait for the snows to melt so I can knock off the rust, and
try some of these ideas out myself. Well done guys.
Exactly what I've been working on. Thanks guys
Very helpful video, seems like rb and I are very similar, and all of the videos featuring him hitting have been very relatable. Keep up the good work
excellent video. incredibly easy to understand concept, great visualization of the before and after, and actionable.
This is gold!! Thank you so much for this video!
Great video. This is a mirror image of myself ! Thanks to you both.
Great series and something that I would think most golfers could work on including myself!
Excellent instructions and a nice explanation to hit that low penetrating ball flight.
Really good visual, thanks Ian.
Great job RB! See man like I said just a couple of tidbits really does make a drastic change. Even though it feels awkward at first after a couple weeks of annoying the shit out of your wife with practicing your new positions in grocery stores and around the house, you can start to ramp up to your normal 90 to 92 club head and you’ll really start to see your irons stretch their legs.
Joined a links golf course in the last 2 years and definitely looking to get the ball flight down with the windy conditions. Great video and something to work with and try on the range 👍🏻😊
On the right path Ryan...keep at it bud. Great stuff Ian...cheers!
Thanks for the comment - I'm working on it!
Very helpful and very well explained. Thanks
A fantastic breakdown of launch conditions
Gosh these videos are amazing!
This was for me! High launch, big height and wanting to lower that down and get more distance. I'll need to practice this!
Liked the shank explanation and how to avoid. Definitely a factor when training to get the launch angle down
100 percent what I’m working on. Lowering dynamic loft. Great video and definitely helpful info. So is RB getting the T100S irons or was that purely just to show the difference from a fitting point of view. Because I’m contemplating doing a bit of x y and z. Improving technique to lower loft, potentially getting irons and shaft similar to the t100s that will naturally launch lower. Loving the content guys.
I cannot wait to take this one to the range. This might change everythibg
Excellent video exactly what i needed to see !
Great to hear it was helpful Brent!
Ryan and I have the same iron swing and I hit the occasional hosel. Thanks for doing this video. To summarize, I need to work on bowing my left wrist, moving my weight to my left leg, make sure I keep turning and get the club working left around the corner?
Ian really is a golfing encyclopedia ….👍🏽
Really helpful video 👍🏼👊🏼
Awesome info guys. More of these types of videos 👍
Thanks Ashley - its our goal to continue doing videos like this!
Excellent lesson 👍🏼
Excellent video.
Yup, this applies to me too (as most golfers!)
Love these videos boys keep up the good work. Ian, what shoes are those you've got on?
Brilliant
Love it guys
That's pretty wild. My launch (according to my GC3) with 7i is around 16*.
Exactly what I have been working on. Almost feels to me that I am trying to hit a stinger type shot and sawing off the follow through like a Tommy Fleetwood. If I do that then I get much better compression and ball flight.
Perfect
Great video guys, When will you be doing the driver bracket tournament ??
This is excellent stuff. With a driver CHS of 105-110, what are optimal launch windows with various irons?
Is the general rule of the ideal launch angel is half the static loft of the club accurate?
Useful
Is it alright to preset that impact position more at address before taking the club back? Like more forward shaft lean with a shorter back swing?
funny what i bit of forward shaft lean does, usually my 8 iron is 145 metres on the button.
played around a bit yesterday as i was having a shocking day anyway, bit of shaft lean with a lower finish and carried the 145m 18th green green by a good 15 metres 😬
Hit the ball pretty well (i thought ) don't struggle for distance so much but definitely hit high and never take a divot so i think this could be for me ? Will have to give it a try
Nice belt Ian
Strong lofted irons
Really can relate to RB's ball flight. My question is that the swing changes seem to be getting the handle a little more forward and closing the face which results in better ball speed and a lower flight. Why not just strengthen the lofts which would achieve the same face angle? For me its easier to change equipment than an ingrained swing or does the increased ball compression of the swing change play a significant role in speed/spin?
A question, but first. Thank you so much! I was in the exact same spot. I knew I needed to lower the ball flight, but some days it went went right ( lagging my writs but not turning?) or hooking ( turning but not lagging?). This video helped me realize that.
So the question. When i now compress the ball and have a more piercing ball flight. Should I choose a ball that promotes a higher ball flight or just normal or one that goes low? And why if any one specific?
I have a hard time keeping the left hand around the pocket, without pulling the arms across my body for slices. I've always hard to have my target for my hands out to the right of the ball if you're looking down the line
I saw the ball goes left when delofting, is it a matter of just aiming more right and curving it in or is there another fix, Im facing similar issues...
Should he get refitted or have his fit tweaked now that he's delivering the club differently and faster?
Nice SUPREME sticker lol
Hi Ian would one of those tour striker irons help with this as ive got the same problem ?
I got one last year and it has helped reinforce the feeling, although be aware the first time you use it you will probably look like a fool for 20-30 mins
Literally me this weekend. started practising again for the first time in a year. Noticed I'm Launching the ball too high and losing distance but couldn't understand why.
His stance width is too wide with the 7 iron, that is also contributing to higher dynamic loft. Everything Ian is having RB do i agree with but it would be much easier to achieve with a stance width where the feet are more under the hips reducing the amount he has to move the pressure left. Just a thought.
Grande vista might be the best 9 hole facility in Florida
If you wanted to fix this issue with clubs instead or swing changes, would you stagger clubheads a few? Ex. Build a 7 iron using a 4 iron Head, 8 iron using a 5 iron Head and so on?
Equipment changes don't "fix" issues. Find a good instructor, put in the time, and in the long run you'll be happy you did.
Could you do the opposite video of raising flight!
I’ve got reasonable speed but launch too low!
This is for me. I don’t know how to get forward shaft lean
my 7 iron is about 20-24º. looks like i need some practice to drop that a little lower
🙌
Excellent video, really really enjoy seeing Ian give golf lessons. I love new toys, but investment in good fundamental swing lessons trump golf fittings 100% of the time. This is a typical issue with most amateur golfers not able to shift enough weight to delofts club at impact and scoop the golf balls as a result. Good luck, with this swing fix, you will enjoy golf even more and get 1000% better result with MP20 MMCs.
I’ve been skying my irons but I don’t think it’s me. I compress the ball well and I started using low spin balls but I still hit them a mile high ! I carry my 7 170 but hit it as high as my 8 and maybe even my 9😂. Probably not as high but I am using elevate 115 stiff shafts and I think I need something like a DG 120 or a lower launch and spinning shaft
I have the opposite problem. 12* of spin loft for me. + I bomb it. - I have to try hard to get spin.
What about using stronger lofts if a person is unable to make these changes?
Absolutely acceptable too.
Love it! Please tie your shoes RB...you're giving me anxiety.
RB, tie your shoes!!😂
Wish you'd have shown some of the swings from face-on...
don’t think i don’t see the preme sticker!!
So...I need to hit onto a lot of downhill lies? Hahaaha...I can do that, my home course is very hilly!
I guarantee if you strengthened RB's grip and made him take it away real shut and bow his wrist he'd make his natural motion about 3 times and hook it out of the world then actually lower his ball flight and figure out how to retain some shaft lean.. it's nearly impossible to lower someone like his trajectory with the club face so open...
Teaching career bekons
Are RB's TRUEs laced up? FALSE
Higher driver lofts have been a scam for over ten years now. Two things in fact. Why do long drive competitors use lower loft heads? Less drag the lower it stays = further distance. Also why do they use longer shafts? = more speed
Long drive guys use lower lofts because they swing 150 mph. Slower swing speeds need loft or the ball won't be in the air very long.
Where’s Matty been
Talk to much let the listeners freedom to think
BEAUTY.
