Struggling with inconsistent iron strikes — one shot pure, the next thinned or fatted? PGA Golf Coach Georgia Ball has identified three simple checks that could transform your ball striking without overhauling your entire swing.
Georgia Ball – From the Fairway
In this video, Georgia Ball breaks down the three most common reasons golfers struggle to strike their irons consistently. Working through ball position, low point control, and rotation through impact, Georgia demonstrates each fix with clear drills and launch monitor data to back it up. Whether you thin it, fat it, or just can’t repeat a good strike, this video gives you a straightforward starting point.
Key Takeaways Get your ball position right:
For mid-irons, the ball should sit just left of centre — use Georgia’s simple feet-together stepping method to find it every time.
Hit the ground after the ball:
Place a tee just ahead of the ball during practice swings to train yourself to strike down and through, rather than scooping and catching it thin.
Keep turning your chest through impact:
Stopping rotation at the ball causes the club head to overtake the hands — focus on turning your chest to the target to keep the handle leading and the strike clean.
Take these three checks to the range and work through them in order — ball position first, then low point, then rotation — before combining them into a full swing. This video is ideal for golfers who feel they have a reasonable swing but just can’t seem to repeat a solid iron strike from one shot to the next.
