Why am I duffing my irons right?
It might sound logical that thin and fat contact with your irons comes from different swing flaws, but very often they are caused by the same thing – an upward attack angle. We often hit up on the ball in an attempt to help the ball skyward, typically falling back off the shot or straightening up through impact.
Why am I duffing my long irons?
If you're holding the club too tightly you won't allow the clubhead to flick through at impact and hit the ball before the ground. Make sure you hold the grip slightly looser to allow your wrists some movement during the shot. This is a common problem.
Why am I hitting the ground first with my irons?
Generally speaking, a thin or fat shot is caused by having your swing center too far behind the ball at impact. This error causes your club to bottom out too far behind the ball and will cause you to hit the ground first (a fat shot) or hit the top of the ball (a thin shot).
Why do I hit the ground before the ball with my irons?
When a player hits the ground before the ball it is generally because their club is attacking the ball from too shallow an angle. Golf coaches refer to this as the "Angle of Approach".
Should I aim in front of golf ball?
Trying to keep your eye on the ball pretty much ensures that your club will bottom out too soon. If you want to hit crisp irons from the fairway, your focus should be well forward of the ball.

I know there are plenty of threads about stopping the dreaded flip at impact so I hope it's OK to start another one. I read though a thread on another site regarding Jim Waldron's arm swing illusion.

mvmac - you've actually helped me with my swing in the 'Member Swing' section of the site. Thanks again BTW. Lower body work is paying off, and I'll be posting new video there soon. I need to post more, its just hard to find time.

Yeah I probably have one post on wrx in the last 3 years, obviously not over there much since I'm part owner here.

Just wondering if anyone has read up on this method or have taken lessons from Mr. Waldrom. The concept seems to make a lot of sense and so much less technical than what I seem to read day in and day out. I would love to hear any opinions/experiences with this.

If you do a search for ‘Jim Waldron’ at the top on this site you’ll see some threads that discuss Waldron.

Golfers don't flip because they want to "hit" the ball, they flip because their weight isn't forward enough and the pivot isn't sequenced with the arms. We like to say "lag happens".
