Hey Shawn !I really appreciate your videos on Youtube !
I play blade irons but I would like to know what kind of swing do you
recommend to play those well? Fast swing ? Good rythm ? good tempo ?
Impact alway on sweet spot ?
Do You think anyone can play this from a middle level with a ‘solid’ swing ?
Thanks a lot and keep doing those vids, it’s really a great job !?
Hey Man! Remember that everybody sucked at one point; and that like a kid
This is how we are when learning this game! So you can’t do anything
learning how to walk, even though they are not walking yet, you cannot say
anything bad about it; because they are in the perfect state of learning!
wrong when you keep learning…you only suck when you give up…Shawn
Nice video. Good job at addressing the different aspects of being fitted.
Looking forward to your comments on the latest Golf Digest and the sponge
BOB drill.
Clemshaw, I’m 13 but I’m too good for kids clubs what do you suggest for
irons. I hit my 7 iron 135 if that helps.
If you are looking to get to the next level and are on the course or range

5 days a week, blades are what you need to get the feedback that is much
more precise; you will hone your game much more. Tiger, Ernie, Phil, all
use blades and if cavity backs were that great they would be using them. 30
years ago, all we had were blades and thank goodness for that as this cut
the confusion out!
Shopping for golf is soo much fun!
Thanks Jordan and Yes; I am planning on doing a wedge fitting as soon as my
short game area is up and running; I have a new putting green being
installed indoors here at the learning centre next Monday so we will have
some fun with that! Shawn Shawn
@koochobx The next logical progression is a higher performance women’s club
or go with a men’s club with a light steel shaft in a regular flex that you
can grip down on; Shawn
Sorry for the late answer; shaft selection seems fine and they are a good
set of clubs; the key though would have been to try others to compare; but
there are other factors like were you swinging through the ball and was the
distance between you and the ball correct when you tried them; I am sure
that after a couple months that things are starting to gel? Shawn
Hey Shawn, I Will be purchasing a new set of irons this fall. I am looking
at the Mizuno Cut Muscle. I am and have always played blades so can you
tell me what the difference is between reg blades and the Cut Muscles? And
do you think Mizuno is making great clubs these days? I enjoy the best
instructor bar none here on the Tube. Regards, Michael from Augusta
Leadbetter, is using a sponge under his left foot to incorporate a power
transition. I’m interested in your thoughts on the placement of the
sponge-he has it under the left toe. (just breezed through it and have not
read it thoroughly yet)
@clemshaw yeah i just switched over to my dads old peerless standard
Hey shawn i just bought some 09 burners they only had me hit couple of
shots they said i was hitting on the heel but they said it was fine,im 5’7″
213 lbs they gave me steel shaft they preety much gave me clubs off the
rack u think im good or should i take them back. bought them at roger dunn.
thanks
I must have missed your comment! Sorry about that! I would do both and
compare notes and see how they match up; the key here is to try before you
buy and do not let someone just tell you what you should be hitting; Shawn
Awesome Wayde! I am happy to hear that! Thanks for the comment; Shawn
@NHOJ1111111 The most important thing to do is this: Whip to target and see
how the ball flies; if you were looking for a fade and you get a straight
shot, then the face of the club is a bit too closed; you must feel the
difference between an action to target and an action to ball is though!!
See the last 50 videos from my you tube home page; then you should be
caught up; pat attention to the ridiculously easy video titles…Shawn
@Coupe300 Yes, once you have found the right feel in a club; then get them
fit to you; it will not change the overall feel, but you will feel more
comfortable with them over the ball and this will translate into better
balance overall as well; Shawn
Shawn, this lesson was great. Today, I had a set of Titleist Z*M irons
custom fitted. However, for what ever reason, the guys working in Golf
Galaxy were trying to talk me out of buying muscle-back irons. After
demonstrating to them that I am a very good striker of the ball, the Shawn
Clement way, they decided to fit me with the set of irons of my choice.
Anyway, I would like know why everyone believes that muscle-back irons are
too hard to swing. The Z*M irons feels no different than my 704’s.
Hey Shawn. One question. What is the flex for your driver?
oh amazing set
Hey shawn. Have you ever heard someone who feels as if they loose their
club during the take away? I mean feeling. I am cruising along and
bammmmmm! all of a sudden I start sticking it in the dirt. Any drills for
the person who knows the basics? O and my grip feels so funky during all of
this.
Shawn i’m 14, what should my shaft flex be around? I hit my 6 iron 165.
Hey snsstarnes; sorry I did not see your comment until now…Have a look at
my new “Golf Pro Lesson Clay Pigeon Shooting” video for the target bound
release and my “Golf Pro Lesson Perpetual motion drill” video for getting
out of the way of this release…Shawn
@clemshaw im twelve and use lady cobra cxi with airwieght graphite shafts
Thanks for the question! It is very common; this space is way too short to
answer but what I can say is that the graphite vs Steel is so different in
feel, flex, torque and droop…It is all about the feel; if it feels good
and performs well, make best friends with it and don’t change…:)Shawn
Yes they have! They are bigger and have better leading edges and better
grooves too; there is a lot more selection in small cavity back forged
irons too; well worth the try with Mizuno, Cobra, Titleist and Bridgestone;
Shawn
AMEN, Brother!
Ok Shawn looking to get fit for irons and I was just wondering do you just
go up to the pro or fitter and tell him/her that i what to be fit for w/e
club or should i go to a place that specializes in fittings
and also… i got the big bertha 454 driver. its working great.
Hi Shawn. Quick question. At what point in my swing development should I
consider getting fitted. An extreme example was a guy I was working with
that played for only one week and went and bought a fitted set of clubs
when he had nothing going for him. Myself, I’m getting better, but still
developing my swing. Even though my swing is still developing, but getting
closer, should I still wait, or should I get fitted now?
Very sweet set dude!
Shawn, Could you do a video or comment on the club face alignment using
offset cavity back clubs as I am having difficulty with aligning it &
feeling the balance points. Used to have blades years ago but getting older
& switched to G10 Pings. I have had others say this is tough to get used
to. Setting up seems unnatural.
cant wait! by the way, was my comment about club length and lie angle
accurate?
Hey Shawn, I have a question about “game improvement” irons…they are more
forgiving for sure, but in terms of actually improving your game do you
think a set of decent blades is better to have? I’m a (very) high
handicapper, I own some G.I. irons which I like but I do miss the joy of a
perfectly struck 2-iron (admittedly that didn’t happen that often!) and the
feedback of a blade. My old blades were terrible though and way too long
for me…have blades improved much in the last 20 yrs?
Just stiff flex; and you should try a few there as well because every
manufacturer has different specs on their shafts; a UST shaft feels very
different than a Fujikura or YS shaft in the same flex… Shawn
ive watched a good 10 videos of yours. they are great. I just got back into
golf this year. im a freshman this year and i made varsity (only cuz
everyone else sucks tho). i shoot an avergage of like 50… yea i suck. i
have set of warrior irons, and i just broke my driver so im getting a new
callaway one. i checked out ur video to see how to pick a shaft and stuff.
thanks.
Right on dude! Great clubs they make! Shawn
