If you’re inconsistent with your irons it can be extremely frustrating when you’re trying to play golf but in order to gain consistency with your irons we need to find out what exactly does consistency mean consistency isn’t just being able to hit the ball the same way

Every time it’s been able to produce the same strike and get the ball to go in the similar Direction every time now it’s obviously going to be very difficult to hit the ball to see him every single time but what we can do is we can bring our variation in and

Increase that consistency so in this video I’m going to show you the easiest way to get more consistent with your irons and to hit your irons a whole lot better this is the easiest way possible to get that consistency up and to start hitting those irons the way you want to

Be able to hit them so the first thing we have to look at is our fundamentals we get the fundamentals right then it makes the swing a whole lot easier throughout the golf swing so what I mean by fundamentals is how we set up to the

Golf ball and how we hold that Golf Club they are the two keys that we’ve got to take away from this and two things that you’ve got to start working on right now in order to start hitting those irons the way you want to hit them so the

First thing we have to do is learn how to grip it correctly now a lot of the time when I see people gripping the golf club they will hold it way too much in the Palm on their left left hand or their lead hand and they will hold their

Right hand or their triail hand way underneath the club like this this just makes it really hard to control that club face as you can see I can manipulate what I’m doing with my wrists a lot with that and you’ll see then that also means that the face gets

Manipulated so in order to control that club face we need to get a grip that helps us lock in position and stop us from manipulating that club face as much so what we want to see with the grip is that we start off from the base of the

Pinky finger on the lead hand working the club down into the tip of the index finger on the lead hand so you’ll see there just like that working diagonally down the fingers then we’re going to pinch it with the fingers here and here and then we’re going to wrap over so now

You’ll see that’s in a much stronger position but the key is that I’ve got it in my fingers and what that does is it locks my wrist and my arm in place so it makes it very hard to manipulate and then if I apply the right hand correctly

Which is working it through the middle of the fingers at the back of the grip and going right over on top now the right arm is locked in position the right wrist is locked in position so when I try to manipulate it’s very hard to get that movement you’ll see when I

Hold it the way I showed at the start I can move that club face a lot more with my wrists whereas if I hold it correctly it’s very hard to manipulate that club because both hands are opposite forces working against each other to allow me to control that club face the second

Fundamental we need to look at then is our setup so what I see a lot of the time from people they don’t set up correctly is they overbend the knees they over sit and squat with the lower body which Rises the upper body up which brings the arms out like this now this

Is just an awful awful position it’s not balanced and it’s really difficult to produce a nice rotation in the back swing and get a consistent swing where we keep that club onone playing consistently instead what we want to see is a setup more like this where the legs

Are much straighter there’s just a slight knee Flex I’ve got my balance on the balls of the feet or just at the front of the Nike sign there and also my arms are tucked in so my armpits are connected to my body and my arms hang

Freely down this will allow me to keep the club on playing throughout and make good rotation and get a consistent strike on that golf ball the other important factor with setup as well is our ball position so I’ve got a N9 iron in hand so this ball

Is fairly Central in my stance eight iron will also be here and seven will also be here now as I move the clubs up so let’s say I go up to a six iron I’m going to start moving half a ball up each time until I get the driver where

It’s going to be just inside the left heel so now that you’ve got yourself in that great grip position and a really good setup position now you can start to make swings where we keep the club on plane and also we keep the club F Square to that plane throughout that is how

We’re going to get consistency with our Direction and with our strike so once you’ve nailed those setup features and those setup foundations you’re going to be able to start hitting the ball so much more consistent straight away now the grip will take some time to get used to the setup will

Be a bit quicker but you will start to hit the ball really good straight away once you’ve got used to those things I’m going to give you something else to work on here in the back swing so what I want to see in the back swing is that we make

Sure that we work the hands and shoulders back in the takeaway almost like a putt so we don’t want to see any wrist set at this point we don’t want to see any rotation of the body we’re just working the hands and shoulders back like it’s a putt until we get to about

Level with our right leg with our left hand then from there we’re going to set the club on plane with the wrists and then rotate and that’s going to get us in a position where we can then transfer our WID deliver the club correctly at impact and get better strikes ball then

Grind so it’s one two there three so go to the range work on your setup your grip and your posture once you’ve got used to that start working these swings in and you’re going to see your consistency go through the roof and your strike and your distance be so much

Better when you’re hitting your eyes if you would like more help from me I have an online Academy that I have just launched and we’ve got players in there that are making some seriously good progress straight away starting to hit their target scores and starting to really transform their games for
