One main factor to improve Direction

Skill development: Ability to change your face angle

Face Angle determines with 75% where the ball starts with an Iron. To improve Direction, train your face angle awareness.

Club Path is the other 25%, we will train this together with Face Angle.

Another directional factor is impact. Let’s assume you hit it in the center most of the times, otherwise start with Distance Control and Impact Location.

Make sure that you can hit your irons more or less the same distance every time. You only have a challenge with direction, otherwise start with Distance Control.
