    The Seven Iron

    On the flip side of things, the seven iron is often considered to be the “perfect golf club.” This was explicitly show in the movie “Tin Cup” starring Kevin Costner.
    A golfer s literally able to shoot par on just about any course using nothing more than their seven iron and their putter. Granted, the club is not designed to hit the ball far, but depending on how strong you are, you may be able to hit anywhere from one hundred and seventy five yards to two hundred and twenty five yards. Those distances are nothing to sneeze at.
    Following the drive, the golfer is then able to make an approach shot. Depending on the length of the hole, the golfer could easily continue using the seven iron with either a full swing or a cut swing. This would adjust the distance that the ball goes. Depending on distance and weather conditions, they may want to put the ball in front or in the back of their stance. This will allow the ball to have more loft or keep it low. This will depend on which stance is taken.
    As the golfer approaches the green, they can use the seven iron as a wedge to chip the ball. Through an adjustment in their stance, they can control the distance of the ball again.
    Another use of the seven club was shown in the move “Tin Cup” was using the seven iron as a putter. This maneuver does take a lot of courage and is not necessarily suggested for the average golfer.
    On short, par 3 holes, the seven iron is the perfect club. You can tee the ball up and hit out of the back or front of his or her stance. Depending on the length of the hole, the ball may be teed off higher for more distance. It may feel awkward to have both feet in front of the ball, but it will prevent the golfer from getting to much of a swing and flying the green. It does allow the ball to be hit higher and more control.
    A well hit seven iron is beautiful. The ball takes off majestically and will follow its designated flight plan. The ball will fly beautifully through the air and will land gently on the turf. This can help bring the golfer one step closer to his or her goal.
