PostSubject: Weight distribution for Iron shot   Fri Mar 05, 2010 10:15 am

I am wondering what should be the correct weight distribution on your feet when hitting long, mid and short irons from the fairway (not off the green shots) on a flat lie.

On the longer irons, I tend to be 50/50 on both feet while on the shorter ones, probably 60 % on right feet (I am right hander). Wondering if this is about right ?

hi

for short iron, i usually had my weight on my left and keep it there throughout the whole swing and 50/50 balance for mid iron and hybrid clubs.

Ever heard stack and tilt swing? It's good. I been using it all this while. It works. Most of the weight on the left side. About 70-30. Check it out on u tube. It came out so many time on golf digest.

Urgh!

Stack and tilt.

Ruined Mike Weir if you asked me.

Such a good player before tilting.

If he leans just an inch more towards the left, it would become a reverse pivot liao... What a Face

I thought we are supposed to have weight transfer for all the shots?
