How to buy irons that suit you

Last updated: 30th June 2009

When you are looking to buy new irons, one important consideration should be your trajectory.

If your have trouble getting the balk to fly high, it might be in your best interests to try out clubs with more offset - that is, where the clubface is slightly behind the shaft.

On the other hand, if you have a tendency to hit the ball so high that your are losing distance, you should rather go for irons with less offset and stiffer shafts.

If you have any hesitation of which way to go, it's always best to check your requirements with your professional.

"Hi

I play off a handicap of +2 but when i have been practising lately i have noticed accoring to the trackman machine the max height/apex of my ball flight is around 100. After looking up some of the stats of the players on the PGA Tour i see that there maximum height/apex is only at 30. Why is mine so much higher and how can i reduce this?"
