Do you struggle with poor iron contact occasionally? In this tip, Martin Chuck demonstrates a great one-handed swing drill that will help you strike the ball properly more frequently.

I think the biggest issue I have is the appropriate weight shift to the left. Is there a drill that I can combine with this on that will help me with solid contact?
G'day Martin, I have struggled with this all my golf life. I heard there are two types of ways to hit the ball, Greg Norman says he was a picker having a shallow divot or, a digger with a deep divot. I have been a picker with no real divot, now I want a visible divot.
Like this drill. Like the way you describe hitting below the equator. I’ve actually been trying to hit just above the equator with mixed results.
I try this very drill and place a blue chalk powder line right behind the ball and try to not to hit the line. Leave the line and hit the ball.
How do you make good contact with an iron if you are hitting off really hard ground?
Where did you get that double gripped guidestick?
Great tip Martin. I am struggling with poor or inconsistent iron contact. More often than not, I "top" the ball, and do not leave a divot. HELP.
