Hi all,
I'm new to the forum and golf as it happens - hacked around when I was a kid but six months ago decided to have a proper go and see where I ended up.
I ended up purchasing a set of Cleveland CG4 irons and now that I'm hitting a lot more consistently with them I've noticed that relative to everyone that I play with (a mix of 12 to 20 handicappers) my irons seem to soar up into the air a lot higher then their shots. I figured this isn't a bad thing, windy days aside where it gets interesting, as when I land on the green my shots tend to hold fairly well.
I was just curious on everyone else's opinion though as to whether or not a high ball flight off irons was a good thing (to put it into perspective my 6 iron travels around 170 yards). Also, whether the high ball flight was a function of my swing, the irons I'm using, or a combination of both.
Cheers,
Mal
