As in past years, the choices in new, improved irons are many, and we have only scratched the surface here. When you are looking at the new irons at your local golf course pro shop, remember to hit them on the range and compare them to what you currently have. Although the latest technological advancements are widely popular, it remains crucial to test drive new clubs outdoors on the driving range to ascertain whether the clubs suit your individual swing characteristics. This allows you to see the full ball flight and experience how the clubs feel when you hit the ball and go through the turf. You play the game outside on real turf, not an artificial mat, so why not try the clubs the way you will play them? Find a local Fitting Day out on the range or ask your golf course pro shop to go to the range with you to give the new( or demo) clubs a try. Lastly, rely on your golf course clubfitter’ s expertise to help you evaluate your game and properly fit you with new clubs that could take your performance to the next level.
