Long distance shots are the most charming and attractive shots, as a lot of game depends on them. Whether it is a long par four or a marathon par five, the importance of iron can not be denied.

The most important thing about hitting the shot with an iron is the weight shift of the whole body and to have a square impact of club with the ball. The weigh transfer depends upon the front knee. The timing of bending of the front knee is of great importance as it helps in bending the hip in time.

Do not let your grip loose because if you break the wrist, that can result in a complete disaster of shot. Hook, shank, duff are all possibilities in that case.

Some people try to hit the ball with all the power rather than concentrating on the correct style, to gain distance, but it surely is not recommendable in any case. If you are suffering from this problem then try going with one club greater than what you hit. This way you would not apply so much power that will break your grip or wrist.
