In the first golf tip featured on the new Pruneridge Golf Club Blog, head teaching professional Mike Bricker shows us the difference between hitting an iron and a driver.
Do you find yourself unable to consistently hit a solid iron shot? It may not be a problem with your arms or hands. Mike shows us that the key to hitting the ball flush - not hitting it fat or topping the ball - has to do with ball placement and weight distribution. He stresses the importance of keeping your weight on your front leg through the swing.
However, this theory is reversed when hitting a driver or wood. Mike shows us a drill to practice keeping the majority of your weight back to achieve lift and greater distance when teeing up the driver.
