Been watching Mark for years (since the reviews in the range bays). Also have been binge listening to his podcast after a return to golf for myself. In a sea of false info and inflated KZread egos....Mark is a must watch/listen to. Shout out to Greg and Lou too!

Mark you are great at your job, thanks again for the vids

Mark - I have been working with a coach this year on improving my iron play. My overall movement is pretty good, I early extend some, and when hitting irons during a round the ball fades as I go down in loft. I'm pretty sure I hit closer to the heal. I put tape on my irons when I work on my swing and there are a lot of healy shots. Today I played after seeing this clip and used the idea of taking my stance and then aligning the hosel to the ball and then swing. It fixed my fades (atleast for today). I struck all my irons straighter. Thanks for that tip!

Always think about these three things, but glad these drills are going to help!!! Thank you Mark!

Your best video, ever, Mark. Been watching you for donkey's years, since the very early days; let's get stuck in, and all that. This is your best ever.

Love the trolley, looks like a puppy craving for some love at the start of the video 😀 On point #1: Been working on my (traditionally inside) takeaway for a couple of months. Like Mark demonstrated, I love doing the Justin Thomas takeaway clubface check in my routine. I recommend that to anyone. Compressing irons is addictive, I can't believe it took 23 years and a club fitter (and the likes of Mark) to show me negative AoA and low point. Back in the nineties at least some golf pro's taught people (incl me) to have the low point AT the ball. On point #2. I hadn't thought about that. I do tend to keep more weight on my front foot throughout the swing. How does that contribute to duffs exactly? (because I do still duff some). Absolutely love the idea behind that 3rd tip to setup normally and change address to the hosel. Will certainly try that. Not sure if it'll promote some early extension though?

Putting a dot on the top center of face and trying to hit/present that to the ball is interesting. Can't wait to try it as I still continue to struggle with consistent dynamic loft. When it's good, I strike my irons well and GIRs are great. If not, I'm all over the place and scrambling for par. Thanks, Mark!

Fantastic stuff!

It’s also important to note that it’s all well & good talking about what makes good strikes but everything starts with what you are trying to do to the balls flight

Always class info ☘️☘️☘️

Other than the two BOTS... FIRST! I tried ordering the srixxon 2 udi, but somehow ended up with the 3 udi. I'll give it a try

AWESOME

Hmm Fairway bunker, more like a gravel pit . But good tips,, i struggle to make rome inside in my swing, so striking it on the toe. Going to use youre tip tomorrow at the range.

I now have a dot on my irons! Thank you Mark!

Hi Mark, good video as always! However, need to comment regarding the audio quality. This video plus the latest ones have had very one-sided audio, which is extremely annoying when using a headset to watch your videos. Almost makes it unwatchable sadly. Not sure if it's the recording outdoors or similar, but maybe look into it :) I also checked if it's on my side, it's not, other videos and sounds are ok.

I'm guessing plucking is the same as picking where you take very little sand?

should de-lofting an iron be also a function of club head speed? It’s clear that de-lofting should get the ball further (carry + roll), but not sure it applies to just carry … especially for lower swing speeds? The course I play at most weekends has many greens protected with bunkers and water hazards short of the green, so consistent or longer carry would be very convenient; but not sure de-lofting will get me there (especially with longer irons) … or am I wrong and should de-loft??

I keep working on things. A lot of things I have tried since the first of the year are working.I started off the year in the hundreds and this past weekend, I shot an 83. The best score Ive had is 82 last month. My biggest problem is between my 2 ears. I have a severe lack of concentration. I am still trying out things you tell me to do and they are working. It's me the problem.

@5:16 Mark misspoke here, you want to deliver with the loft of an 8-iron (less loft than a 9)! Just in case that confused anybody. Play well chaps.

3 different exercises from what we can see, The first is simple, the second effective, the third surprising but it works, and for the woods?

At the risk of sounding like an idiot, we know that taking loft off improves strike, and we know that there are optimum launch windows too. Why is it then that wedge shots should launch at around 30degrees irrespective of the loft of the club? Surely this means that we are decreasing the delivered loft of multiple different wedges to the same amount? Am I missing something?

Where is face control in this?

Loft is face control my friend. They are intertwined
