Getting the ball up in the air quickly, really feeling my distance for each club, consistent swings, a nice divot mark in front of the ball which means my swing is bottoming out a few inches in front of the ball and all that stuff.
I’m 23 years old and pretty athletic and strong which some people say get steel shafts. Like I said i’m an 8 handicap. My irons go straight as an arrow except for my longer irons which once in awhile draw some. I want some nice irons and am looking to spend hopefully no more than 800 on them but will go up to 1000.
Here’s my distances:
5: 190-210
6:170-190
7:160-170
8:150-160
9:135-150
pw:100-135
sw:100 and under
