1. I moved my left thumb more around to the right on the grip. Now it's not down the center but over to the right. It matches with my stronger 3 knuckle grip. Snead does it.. For first time ever I feel I can control the club on top.

2. Not trying to get my left arm so high up at top. But still getting to parallel because I'm letting my wrists break more. So i have more control (my body doesn't get ahead of my hands coming down) and hit it farther because I have lots more lag. try it!!!

grady, I just might give your tips a shot. Where's your game at currently as far as handicap goes?

Those are some good tips, I'll have to give tip #1 a tryout tomorrow on my 18 holes. I'll practice a little bit at home just getting comfortable with the grip first by I'll give it a shot. It may be the answer to my iron problem, THANKS.

Grady,

Thanks for the left thumb tip. I tried it yesterday and got immediate feedback in the form of much more solid contact with the driver. It seemed to add a little extra carry on the irons as well.
