    Your swing and follow through are well versed. I tend to hit most of my iron shots with a 3/4 swing with some good distance. Thanks Matt, informative content

    Great video, Matt. You do an excellent job of explaining things clearly and enthusiastically. Watching your videos, I've dropped my scores this year from struggling to break 100 to the very low 90's (shot a 90 even a couple of weeks ago), and am looking to break 90 before the year is out. Fortunately, here in SoCal, I have a twelve month golf season to work with. Keep the great videos coming. They're great.

    Superb content as always Matt...
    I've been doing exactly this recently and finding better results, then you post this video and its made me more determined to carry on with the 3/4 swing method, i hit a beautiful 3/4 6 iron the other evening, it felt so much more controlled and to be honest, there wasn't really that much of a loss in distance because the strike was so pure.
    Thank you for all your hard work and highly informative videos, I for one truly enjoy everything you post up 👌🏼🤘🏼

  • @AustinBilliot
    @AustinBilliot 2 года назад +1

    Going to be implementing this wedge swing into my irons in the coming months… I have been seeing my iron play decrease lately and I believe it’s because I became comfortable and started putting too much power behind the swing so therefore increased my margin of error. Hopefully taking a different approach will get me back on track. 👍🏽

    Hey Mr Short Game - just a quick note to say your vids are great. Your instruction is simple and informative. I'm stuck in a bit of a golfing wilderness in terms of golf courses as I work out in China and have been for 2 years. However I am blessed with an excellent practice facility so am trying to get a good regime going. Your tips are much appreciated.Thanks

  • @faithhall3885
    @faithhall3885 2 года назад +1

    I learned how to hit my pitching wedge from you (60 yds out). I’ve been struggling with hitting the rest of my irons though. It’s been hit or miss - no consistency. I am playing golf today and running off to the driving range right now to try and work on this lesson. Thanks!

    Been watching the channel for a while...trying to apply your guidance to my game. Recently I started to focus on my Hybrids and Driver... Once I did, I lost my iron swing. Went to a par 3 course to work on my short game and boom... found my swing. Seems my body syncs around that 60% swing and now I am happy with that 75 - 80% swing. More consistent and only loosing a bit on yardage. Great video... just makes sense to me.

    So true!! I tried this 3 weeks ago . I can’t turn like I use to when I got so far I would just raise my arms and then cast it all over the place. Cut it down like you said and way more accurate and repeatable. Irons same distance too. Tried with driver and more accurate but more work needed. Thanks so much 👍

    Matt I absolutely love this video , everything you explain and demonstrated i experience,, I feel same way, of course I do,, just needed explained to me!! so true about feel the video looks nothing like it feels ,, my swing was so long because I thought it gave me more power, to correct it my feel had to be waist high before I started my downswing ,, so strange that feeling,, but totally understand what your saying,, and love the slightly open face in routine!! really can talk about this for hours but anyway Thanks again Matt love the message !!

    Great content as always. You make it sound so easy. I can’t even hinge my wrists in my golf swing. I’ve been doing it that way since I started many years ago. I’m getting a lesson this week to try and fix that problem because I’m tired of being shorter than all of my buddies and I’m at the biggest at 6’4 220 driving it only 235. Any tips for working on the hinge when I’m on the range? Thank you

    • @justinkeene733
      @justinkeene733 2 года назад

      Your wrists should hinge naturally. Don’t even think about hinging. It’s really the right arm that will cause the hinge. If you have that right arm tucked to your body and a good full turn in the back swing it will hinge. Just look at Ben hogans swing.

  • @rocketship0
    @rocketship0 Год назад

    Great stuff. I appreciate your instructional videos and the way you present them. Very easy to watch.
    One observance I have is the difference in distance between your wedge and 9 iron. With the same swing, your wedge landed about 119 yards and then rolled a bit while the 9 iron traveled in the air 139 yards. 20 yard difference is too much in my opinion. Can you expand on that a bit? Thank you.

    Great content as always!! For some reason I always have a 3/4 swing with all of my clubs. Still hit with good distance. When I take full swings I lose control of my club face and always hit the ball off target. Not sure how to fix this or if I should even bother fixing it.

    • @sonnenburgoutdoors
      @sonnenburgoutdoors 2 года назад

      I happen to try this about 3 weeks ago as I can’t get around anymore . When I get so far back I just raise my hands and then it’s a mess. Way more accurate and distance is the same or better with about a 3/4 swing!

  • @aaronh.917
    @aaronh.917 2 года назад

    Do you still release the club with the wedge and have your trail arm crossover top of the lead arm in the follow through? (Forearm rotation). Do you do this with all clubs? Driver, fairways, hybrids, etc?

  • @booberry6715
    @booberry6715 2 года назад

    This feel / motion teaches your brain how to swing the club with the body instead of a shoulder / arms only swing so many people are plagued by. Start small and work up to longer clubs.
    My best 9 holes ever was a one-under many years ago when I first got my old Mizuno MP35's. I was so intimidated by the look of the clubs standing over the ball that I made an effort to just hit 3/4 irons all the way around. I threw darts all the way around. Whenever I start to lose my irons I try to take my feeling back to that day and just swing L to L.

  • @devinanderson15
    @devinanderson15 2 года назад

    This is similar to the gear method I use. Gear 1 is for technical manipulation (I’m working on something) it’s a zero power swing that is all about maximum control taken as slow as I can manage. Gear 2 is my control swing it feels like a half swing but it probably closer to the 80% it’s a usable swing that still is more about control. Gear 3 is a full swing, gear 4 is a max swing.

    I think the wedge swing should be used all the time! Unless you’re trying to just get the ball to stay on the green by carrying a front side bunker/water, you don’t need a towering high shot.

  • @Cybertron1000

    so it's ok to have the face slightly open, I've always been told to have the face squared or slightly closed, what's the benefit of having it slightly open?

    • @Rosetwin90
      @Rosetwin90 2 года назад

      I think having it slightly open benefits most average golfers because they usually have a slight outside to in swing. The open face is able to get the ball the stay more on line with a fade. Additionally, it also gives you a little wiggle room if you have a tendency to pull hook from closing the face too much through impact.

    As I've gotten a bit older my iron swing has naturally transformed to resemble my wedge swing, which gives me a bit more control at the price of losing some distance.

All your tips have really helped my game this season--shot my best score this week!
