fat shots

[elliottlale]

so, went out to play 12 holes today (was off first and skipped round the greenkeepers working). usually rely on my 5 hybrid for a multitude of shots from longer distances, but have decided to work more on my 4 and 5 iron work, played some really nice shots with them! HOWEVER, i seem to have started hitting my 6 and 7 iron fat on a few times. happened in open play about 5 times, and off the tee on the last par 3 (160 yds). really annoying as last few rounds not even been able to get near the green, usually the final par 3 is a saviour to me!! and never had problems fatting it before. any ideas without me posting my swing up?
thanks in advance!!

It happens with me if I hang back and don't have a proper shift of weight during the swing.

Regularly.

Are you swinging out to in. This can cause a fat as it is a steep swing path. But to be honest it could be many thing, I'm no expert anyway.

Watch the clubface hit the ball and it will probably solve the problem..

I agree with Snelly on this one!

Check your ball position, has it crept forward?
