Having a club that is very open to falling will kill your iron game.

Having a rigid iron game is essential for birds of birds. If you can’t hit the ball near the road, your chances of making birds are badly reduced.
The problem with many recreational games of golf players is that they do not get enough lean axis forward in influence. Instead, they stand behind, throw the club and roll their hands through influence. Not only this causes Unstable contactBut you also steal power and rotation.
WHEREAS Many recreation players know that they MUST Get Lean Forft Axis in influence, they fight to do this. As it turns out, the blame often has nothing to do with the axis, but rather the orientation of the club during landing. Top 100 Golf teacher Andrew Rice explains more in the video below.
Avoid this critical error
If you look at the good every week, you will notice that in Impact, they take their hands in front of the ball, their pressure in front and the club are wet. This is the position of the perfect influence of the textbook that helps them to flag their shackles.
Recreational players are not so capable of getting to this position. Instead, they depend on their back weight, do not get any wicked axis forward and actually add attic to the face.
“If you find yourself in that second position of influence,” Rice says. “This is because of the club (being very open).”
When you leave the club open during landing, to flatten it in the influence, your body must make compensation.
“They immediately realize that if they continue to move forward, if they hold the handle moving forward, they will not be able to flatten their face,” Rice says. “That open position of the club makes the pivot stagnate (and) the handle slows down so that they give the foot a chance caught so that they can give a square face.”
The square face is definitely a plus, but it comes to the expense of the quality of the strike and the trajectory. In order to make sure you get a square club AND The right shaft forward, it is important to close the club earlier in the landing so that you can continue to restore the impact.
“I’m taking my face in a stronger position (more closed),” Rice says. “And if I have an overly closed face on the way down, I have to get (my weight) forward, I have to penetrate the club in order to stop that club to close very quickly.”
