The sweet spot...

The sweet spot…

Rory McIlroy is hitting golf balls better than anyone in the world right now, he’s a consistent machine and he’s still only 25-years-old. It’s not fair.

Rory’s technique is obviously on the money and this slow-mo clip of him smashing an iron shot gives a lovely insight into the contact between the ball and his club face.

We’re off down to our local Pitch and Putt course to recreate it.

We’ll upload our slow motion video online later and expect it to look something like this.
