Q&A: Does anyone have any golf tips for ball contact with an iron?

Question by mwwardle: Does anyone have any golf tips for ball contact with an iron?
I tend to release the club too early to avoid topping the ball, can anyone suggest a good tip to enable a clean strike trapping the ball between clubhead and turf, I am aware of weight shift and hands ahead of the ball but the problem persists.

    Without seeing your swing, the best advice I can give you is to position your hands ahead of the ball at setup, then make a steeper backswing than say, your driver. Also very important is to keep your head LEVEL with the ground throughout the swing. A little side to side sway is ok, but once you start lifting and dipping your head, you’ll have problems chunking and topping the ball.

    If your desire is to “trap” the ball, this will produce a low right to left ball flight. I’m experimenting with the “stack and Tilt” stance and incorporating a low trap stinger. I take an athletic posture, alignment at one o’clock , hands slightly forward, head behind the ball and a steeper ascending blow. I’m having good success on medium to tight lies. Im 6’1″ 180lbs. and use + 1/2 inch with 2 * upright. Hope it helps

    Play the ball slightly forward of your stance as opposed to mid-stance…

    Most people try an help the ball into the air and top it. THe best way to get the ball airbourne is by trying to drive it into the ground.
