Are you using a Hitter’s stroke for any of the clubs and is it successful? A Swinger gives up a lot allowing CF to produce a Horizontal Hinge. Easy to produce- Homer said it can be done in one’s sleep- but it does require I well produced hinge, swivel and roll to be consistent and accurate.

Hitter’s just drive that clubhead to China- straight, hard. The ball should do the same thing each time.

Answer to question: I haven't been able to use a Hit stroke off a tee or with a "flyer lie" so I Swing in both those cases.
The shorter scoring irons because of the shorter backstroke cries for a Hit stroke pattern for me, but I still Swing the longer sticks. I am working toward a Hit stroke for all clubs because of the success the scoring irons have had. And Hitting feels so good. Better than Doom.
