Close

How does your iron golf club sit on the ground at address? Many golfers set the soul of the golf club flat on the ground, but that is not correct. If you put the club flat on the ground, the club may close because the toe hits the ground and not the heel. Tom explains why it is better to set the iron golf club a bit on its heel.

Absolute bullshit

@cheekbonesdontlie says:

Am i mistaken in this thought? wouldnt his explanation not be accurate if you have stiff clubs opposed to flexible shafts (or whatever the way the two types are called)?

@jeremylowe2309 says:

Golf “coaches “ make everything more difficult than it has to be. Always showing the club at chest height. Seems like snake oil salesmen

@riley9577 says:

Difference this makes is unreal

@johnliggitt3002 says:

Great tip, I actually have that problem and next time I play I’m gonna try your solution. I always get mad at myself cause I hit to the right that’s what I’m doing. Thank you.

You lost me at "coin of two Euro". I live in the USA, land of freedom. Not sure what kind of European monopoly money you all are using over there.

@docathelake says:

See I close my clubface to compensate for the toe touching first!!! lol jk kind of!!!

@carlosarmijonm says:

Going to try this, always put flat and do have issues with ball going right

@DanielFernandez says:

So much conflicting advice as I try to improve my game…

@showtimemaster1824 says:

thats literally only if you have a super flexy shaft smh

@footjoy371 says:

Shank city if I play it that close to heel

@jackfry9123 says:

When you get fitted properly, they bend the clubface upright by a few degrees to allow for this in your natural stance.

@Runatta says:

WHAT IS 2 EURO IN USD

@BourneAccident says:

It's called club droop. Identify the spine and orient the shaft where the spine is at 6:00. It will strongly resist club droop and you can use the club as designed at that point.

@GoldPlatedWaffleYT says:

Jokes on you, I use extra stiff shafts so my clubs don’t bend

@RenéTaller says:

I saw you before, what's your name please?

@arielluna4399 says:

????????????

@coreymouton3900 says:

Just finish watching a video saying “ Never hover the club”,lay it flat on the ground”

@scalywag says:

I'm not buying it

@Oahugolfguy says:

The old 2 euro coin test …

@2027DM says:

I really don’t see how this makes a difference

@antondredoublee7727 says:

Many people do become more flat at impact on their swing… but not everybody. This may be great for many golfers but don't just assume it is and he probably shouldn't be telling everybody they need to do this. You can use a lie board or special ball to check this but you know maybe do that before just assuming it's right for you.

@smilestatts8591 says:

Wow I’ve been thinking I needed the club flat the whole time. But always slice my irons. Advice I got from a buddy if the toe is up you’re standing to far back if the heel is up your standing too close ???? I’ll try this next weekend

@allwinlion7806 says:

Very True i just noticed it today myself .❤❤
