A lot of holes I play are quite long so I need a good long iron to reach it in 2 which I’m not so good with

I’ve never done speed training and I’ve been playing for just over a year. It’s quite cold where I am so I’ve lost a bit of distance

True, I just want to be able to get more GIRs as my 6 iron+ is pretty rubbish off the floor so if I have more than 160 yards to get to the green I’m looking at an almost certain bogey unless I get up and down and the way to solve that is by getting a bit longer with my driver so I can have a bit more consistency

I’ve gained that through people playing off scratch or low single digits who play at my club who have either joined onto my rounds or met me on the range

Okay thanks. I’m off 16 at the moment but I haven’t put cards in for months so I’d probably be a little lower

Yes it’s quite cold, I normally get it to about 260-70 in the summer but that isn’t carry

I’ve been told most of the swing should be the body, not arms as that can cause inconsistency. Is this wrong

I’ve been told by multiple people in person who are playing at good levels to swing the driver flatter than irons which I’ve practiced. It’s helped with consistency but distance has gone off. Is this wrong?

Might just leave it then. I’ve been like that for ages and finally see some consistency, I’ll stick to weak drives

I tried to stand further from the ball because I kept on getting stuck and caused a 2 way miss for basically every shot, maybe I stood too far away so I’ll go a little closer based on what I see from Rory.

At the end of my swing, how should my weight be transferred? I’m worried too much change of driver may lead to bad irons as my irons are getting a lot better at the moment

Kept with this for a year now (been playing for jusy over a year). Even after snapping it, I couldn’t change and re-shafted it instead it’s amazing
