5 iron swing

For whatever reason my five iron has given me the most problems. I’ve been working on it and feel like my contact is more consistent. I’d still like a little more power with it. Any suggestions? Thanks

The longer the swing, the more it benefits from powering the swing with lower body rotation. Looking at the video, it appears to be more of an upper-body dominant swing. Your weight ends up more into the toes at this point, which is a sign of more of an arm pull down power source than a body rotation power source. I'd try a few drills to get the lower body more involved rotationally. You could start by dialing in a good checkpoint for hip rotation by practicing impact. In the meantime, check out the "pelvis to club x-factor" video for more discussion. https://golfsmartacademy.com/golf-instruction/pelvis-club-x-factor/
