Seventy Five Percent

Problem

You need to gain more control over your short and medium irons in order to make flush contact with the ball.

Cure

You do not lose distance from hitting at the ball with seventy five percent power but you do gain control, balance, and accuracy.

Therapy

Practice swinging the ball at full power and then by using only half of the power. Now try finding a power level between the two, so that it is around seventy five percent. Compare the distances and accuracy when swinging at both one hundred percent and seventy five percent level of effort. You should notice an improved balance and flush contact with the ball at the lower power level but without a loss of distance.
