If you are having trouble with your iron play and hitting a lot of fat shots, your golf club is probably bottoming out to early in the downswing. This will cause you to hit too far behind the ball. Try pointing your right thumb to the sky (right handed golfer) during the backswing. This will help you get the club in a more upright position and keep you from getting to flat and inside with your swing. Also, focus on brushing the grass as you contact the ball. Remember, you want your divot to start after you make contact with the ball.
