Swing High, Hit Low

Picture this – the 2nd groove is the lowest you can contact and still create a functional golf shot.

Or, you could say, this is the highest the club could effectively swing.

Swing Low, Hit High

Now imagine that the highest we can contact on the face before the shot becomes non-functionally fat would be hitting the 5th groove.

Or, we could say, this is the lowest/deepest we could effectively swing.

Boundaries Of Acceptability

We could say that this creates an area (green) where the club can swing and successfully hit a good golf shot.

Better/more consistent players tend to hang around the middle of that area (as shown below).

This is usually between the 3-4th groove up on the face.

You can see how this is corroborated by Tiger Woods’ iron wear mark.

Hanging Low

If you tend to hang around the lower end of that acceptable range…

If you accidentally swing a little HIGHER – you’ll hit your best shots.

But…..

Accidentally swing a bit LOWER and you’ll lay the sod over it.

These players claim

I hit good shots, but too many fats”

High And Dry Thin

And if you’re the type of player who hangs around the upper-end of that acceptable range…

Your lowest swings will actually be your most flushed-shots

But….

Raise up a tiny bit and it’s blade-city

These players claim

I hit some great shots, but too many bladed/topped ones.”

Consistency ≠ Consistency

The irony is, poorer players MIGHT have the same level of delivery-consistency as the better players.

They’re just “living on the edge”.

Which results in less outcome consistency.

• Thin pattern range = black
• Good pattern range = blue
• Fat pattern range = red

All delivery areas are same size, just biased differently.

So each player is producing the same input consistency, just getting different outcome consistency.
