Golf Iron Shot Help
hitting a golf ball in my downswing with an iron?
I just started golfing a few years ago and up until a couple of months ago I always thought you were supposed to hit an iron shot on an upswing or by clipping it. I just started practicing hitting down on the ball, but are there any good drills to help me get used to this. I'm going out for the first time next week. Any tips drills would be really appreciated.
Also are you supposed to hit every iron with a downswing or just the short irons??
You are correct that your supposed to hit it in a downward swing, not the upward part of your swing.
Basically what you need to do is just focus on not scooping the ball. Just trust your clubs. The grooves on the face will grab the ball and pitch it upwards. TRUST THE CLUB!!!
Thats the hardest thing for most people, they don't know what the club can actually do for them. So they try to "help" the ball in the air.
Even your longer irons will be hit down upon to a degree. Mainly due to the fact that you don't play a 3 iron with the same ball position as you do a pitching wedge.

Scratch Golf AR-1 Iron Set $1099.95 Scratch Golf AR-1 Iron Set Scratch AR-1 Irons are forged from the same soft 1018 carbon steel as our wedges. The AR-1 irons are designed to offer maximum playability and forgiveness in a cavity back with the looks of a traditional muscle back blade at address. The center of gravity is in the center of the face and further back towards the trailing edge. The cavity design is progressive and has a lower COG in the long irons to help get the ball in the air. Scratch Golf AR-1 Iron Heads Scratch AR-1 irons are forged from 1018 carbon steel, the softest steel used by anyone making golf clubs today. The raw heads are then ground and finished completely by hand. The end result is the finest hand made forged traditional cavity back irons in golf, customized for your game. The headshape of the AR-1 irons was inspired by Scratch's work with Tour Pros from around the globe. Specific attention was paid to the transition from the middle irons to the short irons to assure perfect flow throughout the set from the 3 iron down to the PW. Scratch Golf AR-1 Iron Grooves The AR-1 irons feature our new 2010 "Condition of Competition" legal V grooves. These grooves are legal for play in any tournament in the world so you never have to worry about taking your favorite set of Scratch irons out of the bag because the groove rule has changed. These grooves are designed to have the maximum amount of groove surface while still adhering to the new USGA rules. This reduces flier lies and provides more consistent spin and performance. Scratch Golf AR-1 Iron Finish AR-1 irons feature Scratch?s Brushed Satin finish. This finish provides the durability of chrome with a duller surface to help eliminate glare. The minimal stampings of the AR-1 irons provide a very clean look unique to the Scratch Golf brand and allow for personal stampings to be added to customize the clubs for the player. Scratch Golf AR-1 Iron Heads Scratch Golf AR-1 irons feature the KBS Tour as our standard shaft. These shafts are designed by legendary shaft designer Kim Braley and are the culmination of his years of shaft design experience. These shafts have a slightly higher launch angle but a more boring ballflight overall. This makes them easier to swing and more forgiving while also giving them better ballflight into the wind. They feature a consistent taper design in a stepped shaft and are more workable and have better feel on partial shots |
