Every golfer that I teach has a different golf swing you’ve got a different golf swing to me I’ve got a different golf swing to all the students that I’ve taught in person and we could probably definitely agree on this point too Jim furick has one of the weirdest
Looking swings in the world so therefore the argument of actually having to have in inverted commer a perfect golf swing is pretty much null inv void right there’s no point was all trying to swing the golf club the same what I want you to have I’ve been preaching about for
Years is is actually having a smoother golf swing to develop a more penetrating ball flight smooth buttery golf shots like that so what you will learn in today’s video is learn to have better Tempo learn to become more efficient with that finesse style shot and most importantly
This is going to help you lower your scores I like reckon guaranteed four shots better now that might sound crazy but just m strikes are costing you so much so let me go back to that argument you don’t have to swing it perfect you’re going to learn to score today
With better Tempo more finesse because that’s really all that matters that you know your swing I also think Jim furick said this is one of the best golf lessons he has ever had and what I’m trying to get across you today is forget about a perfect swing think more about
Tempo and learning to swing your swing so there are a few stages to develop that buttery Tempo and penetrating ballf flight first thing I want you to do is go and grab your a TI and just hit a full one literally what you would say is a full out hard swing so like
This find out exactly how far that goes this is a little downwinds today I don’t really hit a i in 173 yards usually but I’m just playing it in the conditions that I’ve got today so my full out a iron right here right now just flew 173 yards now you don’t need
Any swing launch monitor you can do this on the golf course you probably know how far you hit your AI in fact let me know Down Below in the comments exactly how far you hit your AI full out you know like Sunday Best out you Boots full out
So once you’ve got that yardage if it’s 140 150 or actually a crazy length today like 173 I’m a little bit baffled by that but it is downwind as I say I then want you to go and grab your 7 iron oh that is ridiculously dirty come on if
You ever came to a lesson like that with me I would tell you off I’m actually a bit disgraced about how dirty that is so go and grab your seven iron and what I’m going to ask you to do now whether you at the driving range or you’re on the
Golf course is try and hit this s ion right here the exact same distance you just hit your a in now that is 100% gonna require a smoother swing so to bring that in I would maybe grip down a little bit so somewhere around there I
Might even move the ball a little bit further back in my stance but what I will 100% do is make a smoother buttery golf swing just look at the difference in that flight that I felt like I could literally do that all day long and this
Is really my point like did you see that flight my Aon went really high on the first one yes it was a good shot but the likelihood of that happening on a full out swing is a lot less than that shot I just hit there that 79 was buttery it
Was smooth it was under control and if you can do that on 80 to 85% of your iron shots with that same mentality of one Club longer making smoother you’re going to strike it better you’re going to hit more greens and that is going to drop your scores this is something I’ve
Been preaching for years this is what Jim furick even shot 59 or 58 with that mentality with so why aren’t we all using it why are we stood there trying to blast it maybe I took a little bit too much off this compared to where the
A ion went last time but I tell you what that flight it would have been middle of the green it wouldn’t have been far away let’s try one more so I I guess the idea is really really simple set a benchmark with one Club shorter and then try and
Hit one Club longer the exact same distance making sure you’ve got that buttery smooth Tempo your control level is going to go up three or four pegs right let me hit this one away here let see get this a little bit closer then we’ll talk through some real world
Scenarios like this hole right here one of the hardest par 3es I just literally felt like I could do that all day long I need to do this way more look at this shot I just got that one nailed 172 so let’s now talk through some real world scenarios let’s take the 16th
Right here so this is the 16th hole part three here at mum Hall 209 yards let’s use the exact same mentality now on this win today that 209 for me would be like an all out five iron like hit it hard because it’s downwind it will get there but I’m going
To do the exact opposite I’m going to hit a smooth for R so I’m bringing in the exact same mentality the exact same drill the exact same process and discovery of taking one Club longer swinging smoother and you know what that ball flight comes a little bit lower it
Becomes more penetrating go back to what I said you would learn at the start of this video better Tempo become more efficient and learn to score score because you’re not hitting the ball out of play here we go I’ve got my for iron and I’ve just actually lasered that flag
It’s 202 yards I’m going to grip down swing it smoother look at this trajectory it’s going back to what I said about the 89 much higher much more loose much more a bit of a lottery 79 a little bit lower more penetrating more control all right that I could do that all day
Long well that’s a definite dancing and when you’ve got a par three like this that’s exactly what you want when we’re trying to hit it 202 and we hit it 1 198 I am absolutely over the moon with that I’ve also just thought like look at it even in like today’s conditions having
That sort of 3/4 shot like 3/4 speed I’m not going to let the ball go wild on the wind it’s almost just going to go straight through it look where that one has just finished I’m absolutely over the moon with that on a par three like this which you you’re going to be
Staring bogey in the face you hit the green that is one shot possibly even two saved right there oh KN knocker see if we can [Laughter] convert P thanks so much for watching don’t forget to subscribe to the channel here for free simple golf tips five times a week

What a golfer! Golfer being the key word…learn to SWING YOUR SWING! I use this drill all the time!
8 iron is a 160 club…..
Hey Alex, my Dad always told me “short putts never go in”😂. Thanks for the videos 🏌🏼♂️⛳️
Getting old! Use to hit an 8 iron 150 yards, now as an old geezer only 130 yards!😢
I’ve tried this before. It’s changing your mind set and being brave. Once you done it a few time you do it for the round. My problem is doing it the next round lol.
Very interesting to watch this Alex & definitely worth a try out on the course 👍🏌️♂️⛳️
120 yds
Another great video – nobody swings the same so why do some pga teaching pros try and teach everyone the same swing! I bet if everJim Furyk lost his swing a lot of pga teaching pros wouldn’t know how to fix him!
This lesson really hit home. This is now my regular weekly practice drill.
If you could hit your 6,7,8 irons the same distance, do you really need three clubs? Then 9, P, G?
Then 3,4,5?
Make grouping of 3 clubs each with their own groups of lengths.
Driver, fairway wood, wedge, 3 different iron, 1 higher loft wedge or chipper, putter.
9 clubs.
I am 74 yo and hit my 8 iron 140 yards max
140
160 is the is my Max out. Love this I try this drill last year and it definitely help with control
135 normally
According to my garmen my 8 iron is 160 yards
I came up short on a 186 yard par 3 yesterday using an 8 iron but wasn't the hardest swing.
My 8 goes 135-140 max 😂😂
Thanks Mr. Alex…
I played my first round on Friday. I saw big improvement and distance with irons. Still need work from the tee box, but had some great pars…
My 8 iron carries anywhere from 5 to 145 yards. Factors include: how many beers I had, luck (or lack of), and how frustrated I am at the time. 7 iron, I don’t even waste time pulling out of bag!
All out 140yds
At my age around 120 yds.
Great video mate, my average for my 8i is 151m (165.13 yards) my longest 8i shot on the range was 165.1 m (180.55 yards)
I’m always trying to hit a comfortable 100%, 140ish yards carry (total depends on course conditions so at the moment 140 yards!!) just wish I could’ve sunk those 5x3ft putts on Sunday!!!
145
8 iron flat out 144 yards
155-60 yards in normal conditions.
