Less Distance

Problem

You want a little less distance than what you normally achieve with a club without changing your swing or trajectory.

Cure

Choke down on the grip to take some distance off so you can still make the same aggressive swing as wanted without having to change clubs.

Therapy

Practice swinging the club while choking down on the grip by a half inch, inch, and an inch and a half to see the difference in how far the ball flies. Repeat this with all of the irons in your bag to get a better feel for control over distance without changing the loft each club.
