Mastering Golf Irons - Tips to Master Golf Irons

Learning to master golf irons is an overlooked subject, no body seems to focus on these much but its quite important nonetheless. There are many resources available to improve your driving and putting but not much emphasis is placed on the golf iron play. Here are a few tips to help you master golf irons:

  • Practice on the driving range to know your average distance with each golf iron in your bag
  • Use the right iron for the distance you want to hit it and use a full swing
  • Take into account the wind strength and distance as well as other factors like height and slopes
  • Playing from the rough is different from playing from the fairway - you will need to adjust the ball position, stance, iron loft, and attack angle
  • Learn proper course management - going for the pin is sometimes not the best option
