" Now, as I mentioned before, the game starts with use driving off with one of the woods. It is called a wood because, the old clubs were made out of wood. Now they are made out of metal and they go greater distances. Once we are in the fairway and we have taking our second shot, which we fairly would let say we are playing a par four or five then we go to our low irons. In my bag I got a three iron, four iron, and five iron. Now for me the three iron go about 160-170 yards. The five iron goes 150 yards. The four iron is something in between. Depending upon where my distance is, is which one of these clubs I will pick. If I pick one that is to short I'm going to wind up shorter to the hole. If I pick one that has greater yards for me, I'm going to go further than I want to, and I will be losing strokes. Again the idea is not to lose any strokes. So sometimes on par threes we can use this clubs as what we tee off from depending on distance. If we got a par three 150 yards we can use a five iron. Okay thank very much."
