[@roberthughes6762]

I loved that you touched on grip pressure Micah. It’s so key and I don’t think it’s talked about enough. Without a soft grip pressure on those longer clubs, you lose that lag, you get quick and it creates allot of weak contact.

[@BKS2045]

Just watched this and went to the range. Had the best long iron session of my life. The soft grip pressure really was a gamechanger for me, the soft grip lets the club do the work. This is such a great video. Thanks Tig!

[@nicholasheaney6169]

"That ball is like head height, if you are like 15 feet tall" I lost my shit when you said that hahahah

[@7y13r5c077]

I've been a long iron guy all my life. 3W-Hybrid just don't work for me. Keep pounding that rock! You're an ambassador and great example of why we choose the clubs we choose.

[@brianfelder5878]

Micah, I could not agree more, I also have the ZX Utility 2 iron and I and my playing partners will swear to you it is by far my most fun club to hit and a hammer to hit. I play in Oklahoma and at my course I use it off the tee and on par 5's a ton. I just recently went through my last 9 rounds of golf and hit that damned thing 39 times off the tee only (not counting any approaches) in those 9 rounds, and those 39 shots averaged in total 253yds. Best club I own sir!

[@StumpkillerCP]

I keep and carry a 2-iron (vintage Northwestern "Chi Chi" Rodriguez Tournament) for a single hole on my local course. It's a 4 par 270 yard dogleg to the right with a split-rail fence and drainage ditch midway and trees out at 230 yards that block the sight of the green. I fire a 2-iron off a tee straight at the outer edge of the inside tree and it gets me over the fence and under the trees for a 7-iron up onto the (convex) green and a putt. If I two-putt it's still par. If I slice a bit it's a gamble to get through the tree branches/leaves and 50/50 I make it for a nice chip up on the green and a birdie. It also punches far and flat on windy days if I do my part. At the driving range I always fire a couple with the 2-iron. Another arrow in the quiver. I don't carry a 3-iron as that is overlapped with a 3-wood, 5-wood and a 21degree utility that I do carry.

[@WilbertoCasillas]

Great video! I think the emphasis on grip pressure and ball position here is so important especially with them long irons. I have a tendency to put my long irons almost as far forward as my three wood which causes a hook for me. Moving it more to the center (a couple of balls forward of center) has allowed my overall iron striking to become consistent and playable!

[@autotrip5]

Awesome tutorial. The 2 iron is a tremendous skill. Really hard to not slice off for a lot of people with slower swing speed but a penetrating straight flight is pure gold especially off the tee. 3 wood or a hybrid can give you a nice high ball flight with some spin to try to attack a green from distance. Maybe consider a hybrid or a 5w for the club spot you have and to gap in that 230+ range.

[@garyneal4189]

Well done. Great explanation of ball placement. I just got a zx2. Took me about 4-5 balls to get a good ball placement. But I couldn't put it down. Lol. I was able to work the ball from left to right. Not trying to crush it yet. But was averaging 235 carry. For me being 60 years old.thought that was good enough for what I was putting into it. Now from the turf I was getting about 215 Carry. I do not like 3 woods or hybrid clubs. They just don't look right behind the ball for me. So this 2 iron I think is going to be fun! Thx for the information!

[@kevinarnold4250]

I hated my driving iron when I got it but, now I love it. I like it way better than my driver. The last 18 I played, the driver came out twice and that was it. Now that I'm comfortable with it, I hit it farther than all my buddies when they hit driver.

[@Omni_Lead]

Watching you crush your 2 iron the last few months gave me the confidence to hit my 4 iron more off the tee. (No 2 in the bag rn) Thanks for the video!

[@Reidh77]

I dig that you're explaining your process with your practice and not just running vlogs about look how low I can go. Cool stuff man! The rest of us really don't understand the struggle that is Texas wind

[@MacDaddyKev]

Just recently started hitting 2i with some pretty great success IMO. one thing that also helped me was actually teeing it up slightly to gain the confidence to "sweep" it . now I am hitting in out of fairways and slight rough anywhere from 230-250 with some solid accuracy, and even further off the tee. Really appreciate the thoughts and tips Tig!

[@Funkshway]

I got a 2 iron just because of you and it’s changed my game. Way better than just hitting driver only. Different options on the tee

[@MrNeeko777]

for how windy it is, that mic is doing really well! Love this video! thank you micah!

[@JoseHernandez-rb2pn]

Team 2 Iron here. Big thing for me with the 2 iron is a good controlled backswing and keep accelerating as you attack the ball. Good stuff

[@Reffitt2]

You are such a humble and grateful person, and that's why we support you so much, Micah!

[@thenoblekind]

Picked up a Titleist u500 2 iron a few weeks ago. It’s already become one of my favorite clubs to tee off with. Especially on the first hole if you don’t want to hit driver but need some distance. Thanks for the tips!

[@eliasadam2345]

I'm an advanced beginner and the 2 iron is my favorite long distance club on the fairway. I think it's just all the time I spent at the range practicing with my 6 and 8 iron that my swing just carried over to it well. Supposed to be a difficult club but found it easy and a great addition to my bag. I also use the hybrid instead of the driver when hitting off the tie as I'm almost always perfectly straight with a hybrid for about 200+ yards but I'm awful with the driver. With the driver I either slice, popup or way overshoot what I'm aiming for so I leave it in the bag unless I'm practicing with it. But on a 5 par course, I love the hybrid then 2 iron combination.

[@dardarfisher]

Big ups, I've been hittin a huge 3 iron for a while now. Sometimes I get in trouble with it to the left, love your commentary, helps me alot.

[@christillery1624]

Even with the wind... that mic sounds great!

[@graemetooley4934]

Been needing a longer iron for a while since my bag only goes down to a 5, definitely looking to add a 2 iron in heavy part thanks to your love for it!

[@erickbauer8888]

I am very confused when I watch you swing. You swing well over 100 mph but it looks like you are swinging about 80. I am just amazed at how easy you swing that club. Ernie Els is called the big easy because of how he swings and your swing seems just as effortless as his. Thanks for this video.

[@williamhermann6635]

Because hes only swinging about 80%.

[@michaelparsons541]

Never thought I’d hit a 2-iron until I found my 5-iron going further than my hybrid. I found a pre-owned Taylormade SIM-UDI 2-iron with the Diamana Thump X-flex shaft, and I absolutely love it.

[@bobbydixey4035]

Defo one of the best tutorial videos I’ve seen on the 2 iron. 👍🏻

[@nate_wil]

I was wondering why I was struggling to hit my new taylormade stealth 4 Iron. Then realised that it's 18.5 degrees loft... that's a classic 2 iron! I needed this video!

[@ESP500]

Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. Really appreciate the tips.

[@renerealme7956]

Great info! Have a 2 iron but only ever hit it off the tee box, not from the deck. I’ll bring your pointers to the range next time!

[@thebroker01]

Love what you said about the grip pressure and the patients at the top. That’s really worked for me on my five and four irons as well so absolutely great tips. Thanks Micha and good luck on your career. Pulling for you man!

[@alexmills1329]

I’m a new golfer and have the same 2 iron, and I love it! For me it’s for long par 5’s as a second shot , or a short hard par 4 off the tee. I never get much air but it is a laser beam for me. My only issue is I’m a new golfer and have about a 40% whiff rate 😂

[@volcomsnow25]

Micah love you but as a club fitter I gotta disagree with "everyone" having one in their bag. Sure for someone that mashes the ball it makes total sense for a driving iron to be in the bag. But for the average golfer with speeds using a club like that (roughly 70-90 mph) a hybrid is much more effective. Unless you have consistent ball striking skill and speed, a driving iron will punish you greatly, even with people telling you how forgiving they are. The launch is generally too low, and they won't carry the ball far enough to make it effective even with roll out. A hybrid would fit the average golfer SO MUCH better with higher MOI and lower CG. I keep most of my fittings away from even having a 4 iron in the bag these days. I find that unless your ball striking is on point, your distance averages can vary too much with long irons punishing you in the long run. But on the other hand, if you have speeds over 90mph and can find the center of the face most of the time, sometimes a hybrid can launch and spin too high making it more effective to use a driving iron. Also that Ventus HB shaft is a 10TX I believe, that ain't no stiff!

[@tommyfalcone6023]

Facts

[@mjv40]

Facts facts

[@DoubleOhTheG]

My club head speed is between 115-120 with the driver and I don't use a 2 iron. I'm a low ball hitter and I found that a 5 wood does the job much better for me. I can hit a 5 wood much higher than a 2 iron.

[@michaelbarker3749]

@@DoubleOhTheGsame here. Good call

[@christophermartinelli268]

Shut up

[@genxray951]

Just got a Maltby 2 iron, I rockets off the tee with a good trajectory , way more forgiving that I ever thought it Could be. thought it would be harder to hit off the fairway than a hybrid but it isn't. I'm hooked.

[@tylerwittish8387]

High 70s and low 80s here in Florida! Gotta love it

[@gonzalosanabria2251]

Love the ball placement & soft grip pressure. I have a Ping 2 hybrid and it flies long and low even out of rough

[@rossmatheson766]

I’m off to but my 2 iron. I’ve held off too long. Presently playing off scratch without a 2 iron but always fancied it having been brought up on Western Gailes in Scotland. Thanks loved the video!

[@mjv40]

A great alternative to a 2 iron for golfers who don’t enjoy the speed and power that Micah has would be a 4 utility iron. Something in the 20-23° range. It gives you the same benefits that Micah is talking about with his 2 iron but in a club that has just a tad more loft which allows slower speed players to get the correct launch and spin to be able to get the most out of the club. Just my 2¢

[@Gen10civic]

Taylormade sim dhy!

[@jmo2640]

Watching Micah hit a 2 iron makes me think, oh I can hit a 2 iron…then I wake up from my dream!

[@mikepetersen1999]

Awesome video. I've been watching your play with the 2 and have got better with my 3. I'll probably get a 2 very soon. Also I really enjoy these videos at Frisco Lakes. My son and I just went out there to visit my Dad and brought our clubs. I had to play it once I saw #7 on one of your videos. Keep up the great content.

[@williambird4836]

Collab's with Rick and Peter would be amazing, a mix of both sides of the pond. do many American's follow and watch rick and peter?

[@ryansosnowski3705]

American here, Pete is probably my favorite KZbinr

[@darrencommanda7736]

Would love to be able to have the ability to hit a 2-iron but my swing speed just wouldn’t agree. Plus the sim2 max’s I own have a 5-iron lofted at 21.5 degrees so there is no need to go any lower. Hybrids and woods are just easier to swing faster and control for me, but great video none the less! Love watching you stripe it.

[@1Kellapitter]

Thanks for making this video, I've been hoping for this one!

[@vacationmafia5518]

Felt Like Bob Ross When You Initially Started Hitting! Love The Content Micah!

[@rctwins7913]

I agree with all of it! Great tip on not leaning forward with the shaft!

[@yeabuddy6070]

Besides the 1 iron... This is the hardest club to hit consistently. I wouldn't suggest average golfers use one.

[@KruPreng]

Yea bud

[@genxray951]

have you hit a modern 2 iron? I thought the same thing as you then picked one up and was immediately striping the ball straight down the fairway, plus it is so forgiving. been hitting good off the tee and the fairway.

[@Baileyjwebber]

I have a 2 hyrbid. It fuking rips. But I hit it as far as my 5 wood. Just a backup in shit situations and not a good lie for 5 wood

[@clarkpark]

I have a 2 iron ping crossover and it’s amazing. 240 roll out fairway finder. Long iron are very easy to get a ham gong as long as you simplify it.

[@Gluepot13]

Thanks Micah, I needed this 🤙🏻

[@christopherdanjou]

Micah I’m interested in what all good good members think of LIV golf. I see golf growing

[@Cornish_Maid]

I think I’m right in saying that you need to have a decent swing speed to hit a 2 iron, being a 64 year young woman my speed isn’t enough for a 3 wood so I’m assuming that a2 iron wouldn’t be any better?

[@samrad1745]

I just bought a Zu65 2,,18* i'm very happy with the good shots,, just working on softer hands and a smooth fuller swing.. did a 230m (250y)this week. not bad for Autumn, its cold and a bit damp. and not bad for a 64 yr old.. I'm hoping to pick up a Mizuno pro 2 225 or hi fli iron ,, not sure of the diffrence in those,, but would loved to compare it to the Zu 63and see the differences.

[@appearedpoet561]

I got a 2 iron last year and I love it, someday I hope to hit it as far as you crush yours all the time lol

[@discr1709]

When I hit my Wilson Staff 18 degree iron with xstiff KBS hybrid shaft well it’s absolutely the most fun club I own. However, my 20 degree hybrid goes in the bag more often because it’s way easier to hit consistently.

[@jonq8714]

I really wanted a u505, but ended up grabbing a Sub70 699Upro because I couldn't beat the value, plus the loft was stronger (15 degrees). I needed something with a little offset because my Maltby was pushing right too much... it's my go-to off the tee club.

[@atraue7]

Grip pressure is key especially with long irons. This is where loads of players falter with long irons. Another thing Swing over your shoulder to get more height on the finish of your swing.

[@sohnmoajj]

I love my 2 iron as well! My driver isn't as accurate so i utilize my Taylormade 790UDI 2 iron with my hzrdus smoke black 6.5 shaft. I also have a 3 wood but I dont use that often either. My stock swing is also a high draw and our distances are pretty similar so i feel like I connect with you a lot. Keep up the good work and im rooting for ya 😊

[@anthonyt444]

I have a 2 iron that the last owner put a shorter shaft in it and I’m not sure if I like it much. If hit in the middle it goes over 250 but if I tie it at all it goes like 100… so it’s a gamble I feel like.
