Hi

I can hit my driver quite along way, about 270 yrds consistently but the thing is i hit my irons short. My 3-iron only goes about 180-190 and my 7-iron goes about 150. There is a big gap between my irons and my 3 and 5 woods so on long par-3s i am stuck between the 3-iron and the 5-wood.
What can i do to hit my irons longer?

Your distances aren't terrible but one thing you can do is to try and compress the ball more on the clubface. Also if you are hitting fades the ball won't go as far. If you want more distance try hitting a slight draw with your irons.
