Re: Short iron shanks

I had it for a while, too, and incorporated the same solution. It would seem that my arms would 'fly away' from my body on these short shots.

Greg is correct (for me) in that it was an 'arm chop', not a 'body swing'. My arms had to work away from my body to get to the ball, and by that time it was too late (so the hosel is all that's left to hit the ball with).

By incorporating a little body turn, I've solved the problem. When I just 'arm swing', though, the hot right squirters return.

A new highlight: Golfing the home course on Christmas Day.

I say it too often: If it's golf club shaped, you can play with it.

For the record, I'm a club doctor, not a swing doctor.
