Tips

Low on the face is a thin shot, high on the face is typically a fat shot catching the ground too
early.
Left - Centre
Middle - High
Right - Low (also heel)

Low Point
Low point control is the skill of managing where the club reaches the bottom of its arc relative to
the ball.
Great iron players consistently:
Contact the ball first
Control how much turf (or mat) is contacted
Can move the low point forwards or backwards on purpose
These challenges train awareness and control — not swing positions.
