Trying to connect pivot into impact postion to create additional distance.

I'm hitting irons farther when compared to my driver and wanting to find a little more distance. Example - 7 iron 160yards and driver 240 in the air.

Any thoughts on wiping the wall with your left hip.
I really like that wall wiping deal . . . great image I think . . . I like it with the wall behind and head on the wall infront . . . good stuff IMO. Hips pull the right leg "straight" . . . Hockey stop . . . Not sure I like what the dude's arms and head do after impact . . . but pretty much nails the down to impact part IMO. Like it. From there the lead knee extends hips keep turning and extending from hip joints.

Hard to say on the driver . . . could be an equipment thing . . . could be a loft thing . . . ball position thing. hard to say there without seeing/knowing.
