What's your usual iron distances?

What are your guys carry distances? I feel like I want to hit it further but I think my distances are pretty average. I should just be happy with it, but I'm just never satisfied and always looking to make swing changes to try and get more distance. I finally found the feeling of loose arms/wrist and hit the ball pretty good...

These are what I get on SkyTrak and seem to be consistent with what I hit on the range.

4: 200 and -10 for yeach club. 9i typically 145-150, pw 135. 54* 100yd, 58* 80 yd.

I need to measure/track distances for better accuracy from one round to the next

The numbers mean nothing without lofts.

Here we go the golfwrx I hit my 7I 220 and just not long enough......

8 iron 150, +- 10 or so each way. Traditional lofts, no crazy bent down irons.

Not even sure why I’m responding, iron distance the last thing I’m worried about.

23*=190

36*=150

45*=130

I feel like I'm solid in the mid and short irons for my cap (4.5), but in my long irons I'm a sort hitter due to poor contact.

Hybrid: 240

3 iron: 220

8 iron: 170

Though if want me to hit a 9 iron 175, or a 7 iron 200, sure i can. I can also hit a 9 iron 100 or 7 iron 155 as well, when needed

Easily - but only when hitting from a greenside bunker.

Pretty close to mine as well. (3-iron: 215) I think I'm pretty comfortable with these and don't really think I need to hit it any further. I haven't replaced my old Taylormade R9 3 wood, because the new 3 woods are a bit longer and screw up my gaps.

As to the OP...your distances are better than average. Always nice to find some meat on the bone if you can find it. I found 6-8 yards on my irons this spring and I wasnt even looking. Its gotten my course strategy in a bit of a flux right now till I get used to it.

Not far enough. To much unloading in the downswing. Getting better though not the distances listed by others (wow)

Seems like maybe you have contact issues that are affecting distance as you move up the bag if you hit 60* 90 yards but 7 iron only 163. Either that or you swing really hard at lob wedge and not longer irons.

Just so we all have a reference point ...

Here's the "number" I currently have in mind for each of my clubs as a starting point (plus or minus wind, etc).

SW(54) 85

GW(50) 96

PW(45) 108

9i(40) 120

8i(35) 132

7i(30.5) 143

6i(27) 154

5i(24) 164

4i(21) 172

3h(19) 185

2h(17) 195

D(12) 220

I also have a LW but only use it around the greens or in bunkers, no idea of a full swing distance.

The numbers mean nothing without lofts.

This

PS, my lofts comparatively are considered weak.

19* Hybrid (Turned down a degree): 245

3 (21): 225

4 (24): 215

5 (27): 205

6 (30): 190

7 (34): 175

8 (38): 160

9 (42): 150

PW (46): 140

54: 115

60: 90

All of mine go about the same distance. It took me a while to master the perfect sidearm release to get the helicopter flight. My prior overhand method was all wrong. Lots of club breakage that way. Top tip. Always throw forward so you don’t have to go back, that slows down play.

I'm good for about 70 yards on a typical 60º toss.

It's wild, but I can throw a golf club farther than I can throw a football!

This is me pretty much exactly. Old cobra ss forged irons with px 6.5’s
