[Fitzyiscool93]

[SkeptikProductioN]

I have the same problem too... And I'm 15.

[HydrogenLLC]

Does anyone know how to get of hold of Michael? Years back he wanted to buy GolfingNow....com from me. I now am selling it.

[Taylyndsayedwards]

Oh my gosh! Dave's problem is the EXACT same one I have. Obviously I am a lady & I'm not going to hit it that hard anyway but I can barely hit them straight at all. When I hit them straight they fly 150y!

[AntebellumOg]

When yer...when yer...(processing)

[crackerbomb2]

HELPPPPPPPP

[vinzdevency]

Michael is fixing the slice or shank, but not increasing distance. To increase the distance, the downswing and release of the club must be sinchronized with the fast shoulder and hip turn, making your shoulder rotation push the arm as you make a downswing and release of the club.

MICHAEL...kudos for your many tips/instructions! ARNIE has inspired many with his PROSTATE awareness;perhaps you can inspire YOUR many BOOMER friends in VISION awareness..."macular degeneration(AMD)." AMD has now surpassed Prostate cancer in stats(Novartis.com). A silent anomaly, AMD needs YOUR help please in awareness!

im pretty good. and im black. 14yrs old

[sifurick123]

I believe he can . I can and i"m only 5' 10" 170 lbs . MY power comes from speed not size. His power probably comes from leverage due to his height.

[jonvegard31]

wow, rude people here...golf man...makes people crazy

[cactuskid007]

IDIOT,,ITS WEN THE FACE COMES DOWN ..NOT WEN IT GOES UP ..GET SOME LESSONS

[K1NGP1N360]

JB Holmes can hit a 9 iron 200 yards hahaha...seriously

[cactuskid007]

@K1NGP1N360 he can

[spydertl79]

Phil Mickelson hits his 9 iron 185... I hit mine 155 with a smooth swing but I can hit it longer than that if I want to. If you think a 155 nine iron is ridiculous you clearly don't golf very much

[kuneckid05]

@spydertl79 i hit my 9 iron 120-125 and no more :)

[GolfinMySoxOff]

haha HELLP-P-P-P-P-PPP 

[ITZUNTOUCHED135]

i hate people who bull shit i can hit 200 yards with my 6 iron no you carnt otherwise you would be a pro so save the bull shit please

[TheeFreakiishlyz]

@ITZUNTOUCHED135 Pros can't hit 200 yards with 6 iron.. If they did it would be with help of the wind.

[nylccp05]

@TheeFreakiishlyz yeah they can 200 yards is really not that far with roll. i can hit 200 with a 5 so im pretty sure they can hit 200 with a 6.

[xXxTupac4everxXx]

@ITZUNTOUCHED135 i have to agree 200 yards with a six iron is bullshit i can hit mine like 180 with roll so 200 yards is bullshit

[ITZUNTOUCHED135]

@xXxTupac4everxXx

yh thats about right tbf

[BornToAssassinate]

He broke a rule, he was using an iron on the green!!!

[SpeedyGolfCart77]

@BornToAssassinate NOOO!!!!

[jcbak]

@BornToAssassinate No such rule...

[BornToAssassinate]

@jcbak Rule GR-1.30-03 SECT. 004.10

[jcbak]

@BornToAssassinate The rules aren't numbered that way. There have been plenty of times when I 've seen a tour pro chip on the green. It happened at the US Open at Pebble. There are times due to the shape of the green when you can't put through a small peninsula of rough.

[BornToAssassinate]

@jcbak Wow congratulations there bud. You're pretty smart...

[holygolfer]

@BornToAssassinate

haha bro not to bag on you or anything but it IS actually completely legal to chip, pitch, or even hit full golf shots off of a green. it just can't be the same green your putting on. so to correct your statement, yes. you actually may hit golf shots off of a green. haha fun fact eh?

cheers

[FitFast8]

@holygolfer Actually u can chip on your own green too. Don't have to just use a putter-any club. No penalties although the greenkeeper may not be so happy!

[gadempsey]

@FitFast8

Yes - john daly (i think) chipped on 1 of the double greens at st andrews - aint against the rules

[MoneyMike42000]

@BornToAssassinate LOL. yea i actually laughed out loud.

[craigt611]

@BornToAssassinate There is no rule against using an iron on the green. I have seen it on a tournament once and have done it once myself before

[glynissmith]

@BornToAssassinate There is no rule in golf to say you can't use an iron on the geen.

[BornToAssassinate]

@glynissmith Well, my coach and several other golfers told me otherwise.

[bobtomfish]

@BornToAssassinate there is no rule in golf saying you can't use a an iron on a green. PGA pros/international pros do it regularly when faced with a putting line that would run off the green. You just simply can not take a divot if you use an iron on a green. Not 100% sure about this but i believe you cannot place the club head on the green when addressing the ball also. But i could be totally wrong about that last part.

[simmsdn]

@bobtomfish Correct, you cannot ground a club on the green, but there's not a rule stating that any club (otherwise legal) is verboten on the green.

[ttjarrett]

@BornToAssassinate You can use whatever club you want on the green.

[SpenceMo09]

this guy knows very little about proper mechanics.

[aswamy2]

Great tip! In trying to fix my swing plane that was too steep I realized I was doing exactly this while ensuring other things like grip, transfer of weight etc. were correct. Had baffled me why until now!!

[TheSportAddict]

And also Dale (rofl), try to transfer your weight to the front as you strike down the ball. Too many players only hit with the arms without any hips rotation.

I hit 155 yards with my 9 Iron with an easy and consistant golf swing.

Golf is Epicly Epic.

[WestBromSte]

exactly!

i hit my 9 iron around 155 - 160

distance becomes pretty easy with proper hip and shoulder rotation

[xXxTupac4everxXx]

@WestBromSte if u hit ur 9 iron 155 then i can hit my driver 700 yards ok u dumbass dont lie and who gives a shit how far u hit ur damn iron

[WestBromSte]

@xXxTupac4everxXx

i was stating a point or something

i can hit my 9iron 155

im 6 foot fucking 4, and my irons are about 2* strong compared to most clubs (burner 09)

im not lieing

trust me

[xXxTupac4everxXx]

@WestBromSte well 6.4ft is pretty fucking tall but 155 with a 9 iron just seems like bullshit but if u really can do that good for u man

[doxie4747]

@TheSportAddict That's commendable that you hit your 9-iron 155 yds. However, I doubt it's with the same accuracy as a guy with a quiet lower body. I use a medium 7-iron for 155-160 and my accuracy is pretty good. I could probably hit my 9-iron 155, but I'd probably have to hit it off my right heel and end up with zero backspin.

[TheSportAddict]

@doxie4747 IT depends on your heingh, and on your wrists action.

I'm really precise with my irons, and I hit them really high too. Perfect to attack a hard pin location.

[TheSportAddict]

@doxie4747

i have a really high trajectory, i dont try to nail it or everything, just great weight transfer and wrist action

im not working on trying to lower the ball when im playing in strong wind

[TheSportAddict]

@TheSportAddict

*now

[Rubown]

@TheSportAddict yeah your right, you dont need to try and smack it, nice easy consistant, smooth flowing golf swing actually can show improvments alot quicker. good connection gets so much distance other than trying to nail it and you fat /shank it OOB

[Scooterdogboy]

@TheSportAddict Wow, I bet you can drive the green on par 5's huh?

[TheSportAddict]

@Scooterdogboy No, but I can hit 315 yds par 4's

[DW3Southpaw]

@TheSportAddict No offense but a 155 yard 9 iron is nothing to brag about. 

[stfuboy]

@DW3Southpaw Exactly. A lot of people can do that.

[raycroft123]

@DW3Southpaw yeah it is

[jd575]

@TheSportAddict what do you use for the 100 yard approach then a lob? :) LOL

[TheSportAddict]

@jd575

my 56 degrees wedge 95% power

[Gabesly]

@TheSportAddict i hit 140 on a clean swing (im not very consistent) and im 14 and have been playing a year, im better then most players my age because i eat, sleep, and drink golf!

[matadordn]

@TheSportAddict Tiger woods hits his nine iron 142 yards according to yahoo answers.... you claim to hit it 155 yards .... -__-

[Gabesly]

@matadordn he doesnt hit very far actually

[nikepumps123]

@Gabesly he chooses not to. back in the early days on ttour he could would hit it 165 or so. still can. good players understand that hitting short irons far isa ridiculous measure of distance. It only depends on playing with your wrist angle at impact. long irons and driver show how good a swing is

[Gabesly]

@nikepumps123 ok thanks for clearing that up, but for a tour player he still doesnt hit it very far. there is a video on here explaining how he has a small amount of shoulder turn compared to big hitters

[nikepumps123]

@Gabesly maybe. tiger is still long though. he isnt a bubba thats true. but if he wanted to i would bet he could hit 320-330 no problem. IMO many tour players can, but the rough is penalizing, not like courses avarge people play. they are better with a 5 iron from the fairway than a 7 from the rough. take my word for it man, tiger is too smart of a golfer to lead the tour in driving distance. in his college days though he would hit a 2 iron over 300 ive heard

[Gabesly]

@nikepumps123 Yes i know but same thing with the other tour players

[nikepumps123]

@Gabesly i agree. but i still think tiger is something special with his ability to hit it deep

[Gabesly]

@nikepumps123 agreed

[sethisawesome]

@matadordn That's because Tiger has older (weaker) lofts on his irons. Also, that's just his standard 9 iron shot. He could it it further or shorter or do whatever he wants to do with it.

[no2pump]

this guy just ace
