Re: Setting up irons: Forward press

TiMD: Set up your the irons in your set with them flatly soled on the carpet, with the shaft or the grip 'held' against a couch or against a wall, right next to eachother, and in order. You should see the progression of more forward lean (thus more divot) from the PW downto less lean (thus less divot) for the longer irons. Simply remember to use them like that (i.e. as per their design) when you play or practice.

For kicks, while you have them on the floor like that, crouch down low and look at their profile from behind or from the front, and you will see that they all have the same profile: I.e. they all look the same from the ball's perspective, except for lie differences.
