8 QUOTES WITH «IRONS»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word irons.
1
Red Barber
When I was in baseball and you went into the clubhouse, you didn't see ball players with curling irons.
2
Kabir Bedi
I also said, men are like curling irons, they never get out of your hair. And they are like government bonds, they take so long to mature.
3
Keegan Bradley
It's such an advantage to be able to hit short irons low on command. When it's windy, you'll hit more greens. But low shots are a great strategy in calm conditions, too: The less time the ball hangs in the air, the less time it has to stray off line from the flagstick.
4
Sergio Garcia
When I'm playing my best and find myself in contention late on Sundays, it's usually when I'm not thinking about my swing, but rather trusting my setup and smoothly pulling the trigger. I won't completely rely on feel - I like to keep a few images in the back of my mind to make sure that I get the most out of my driver, irons and wedges.
5
Sergio Garcia
Your woods, irons and wedges are built with specific lengths and lie angles, which demand that you stand to the ball a little differently for each one. The secret is to know which elements of your address position remain constant, and which ones you have to tweak to match the club in your hand.
6
Natalie Gulbis
I have worked hard to improve my consistency in my driving, irons, short game, and putting.
7
Knut Hamsun
For I mean to roam and think and make great irons red-hot.
8
Lexi Thompson
My driving and irons are the best part of my game. Growing to be 5-foot-11 has certainly helped.
