I struggle badly with my long irons. 7 and down are fine, 6 is usually ok, 4 and 5 are more often than not a complete disaster, the stock shot being a big high slice. I was thinking it was more of a mental issue but got chatting with a mate who's just been fitted for new clubs. His new irons have sfiff shafts, whereas mine are regular and 1 1/2" longer. My friend has a slower swing than me, which suddenly got me thinking is the shaft making things harder? Do iron shaft flexes make much difference? I can't afford new clubs at the moment so would i be better taking the long irons out and replace with a cheap hybrid?
