Woods Irons

I have been hitting my woods pretty good lately, but have been hitting my irons like crap?

What can I do besides practice? any good drills? Does the medicus 5 iron work to hone my iron swing? It's not even the tee cause I am hitting my 3 and 5 wood great off the ground as well as the tee. and my irons off the tee are just as bad as hitting them from off the ground? what can I do?
yeah I should be more specific I suppose, Sorry. My tendencys lately are to hit the ground before the ball, and I've never done this before. Even if I make contact with the ball first I am taking way to much of a divot and the ball isn't going very far because of too much connection with the ground either before or after making contact with the ball. And it seems if I even make good contact it is still weak and to the right. Its been a bad funk lately, and I'm concerned mainly because I have no problem whatso-ever with the woods.

There are a few reasonable answers above, like the swing plane examples of a sweeping strike with woods and a downward strike with irons, but your problem might be as simple as not completing your weight shift to the forward foot, or even hitting off of your back foot.
At impact, probably seventy five percent of your weight should be on your forward foot...at followthrough probably ninety or more percent should be on your forward foot.
when you hold your position at the end of your followthrough, it should take very little extra balance to lift your back foot slightly off of the ground completly, and still hold your position.
this weight shift helps the speed and crispness of the shot, and also moves the arc of your swing slightly forward (in the direction of your shot, or toward your front foot). Thats why your ball is placed toward your front foot for most shots, rather than in the middle of your stance at address. the center of your swing at impact has moved forward with your weight shift, compared to balanced on both feet at address.
remember to complete your backswing, start your swing with your weight shift, then clearing your hips, then shoulders, THEN your arms and hands dropping freely through.
Do the weight shift correctly and you will hit behind the ball a lot less... and hit the ball further.

House appliances toxic fumes and some bird toys are amongst the most dangerous threats that owners should be aware of.

Household pets are susceptible to a multitude of dangers lying around the house and even some in their own bird cage. Like all other pets, pet birds are also subject to a number of risks. This is mainly due to their small size, sensitive respiratory system, fast metabolism and in the case of parrots, their curiosity to explore everything around them with their beaks. Owners are responsible for their pets safety and should take the necessary precautions to prevent any accidents. Here is a list of the top dangers faced by household pet birds. Starting with the most obvious, birds have a special dietary need and cannot digest most food processed by other pets and humans. High sugar or salt concentrations are inappropriate. Fatty foods are also discouraged. Chocolate is to be avoided at all costs as it is toxic not only to birds but also to other pets in general. Water is the preferred beverage choice. Caffeinated and alcoholic drinks are very dangerous!

Because of their sensitive respiratory system, birds are extremely sensitive to poisons and toxins. Some dangerous contaminants from cleaners, industrial fumes, and pesticides are fatal for birds. Strong and aromatic odours can also kill birds. Aerosol body sprays, Nail polish, cigarette smoke, and paint fumes are to be avoided. If, as typical, one dedicates a special spot for his bird cages inside his car garage, he should take care not to start his car inside the garage as carbon monoxide can lead to respiratory diseases. One should make special mentioning of non-stick coatings, which emit particular fumes that are toxic to birds when overheated. These coats are usually found on non-stick cookware, irons, space heaters, blow dryers and more. As many birds chew on many things small enough for their beaks, one must place safer bird toys, which are made from sanitised and toxin-free plastics or woods like eucalyptus and manzanita in order to avoid poisoning from ingesting or biting the toys.

Birds, which are left, to roam around the house are also at a risk of falling into sources of open water such as in toilets, sinks, buckets and water bowls. Even worse, they can fall into hot pots of water sitting on stoves in the kitchen, so it is generally preferred not to let birds out of their bird cages in kitchens. Ceiling fans pose a major threat to flying birds and have been the cause of several serious injuries and fatalities. Birds tend to get very agitated and nervous with moving things above them and may become stressed out of a ceiling fan running close to their bird cage. Other electrical appliances, which might not pose a direct threat to a bird, might have an exposed electrical cord. As most birds explore with their beaks, electrical cords can pose a danger if bitten. Cords should be concealed as much as possible using corrugated plastic tubing for example.

Even bird toysspecifically designed for parrots and other birds may not be totally safe. Apart from being made out of toxic materials, toys can be broken down by bigger parrots and parts swallowed. Remember that even if a particular toy looks pretty durable at the time of purchase,bird toys don't last forever and should be checked from time to time. Rope toys can also cause birds to get tangled up in them and get strangled as a result. Finally, birds are rarely known for social interaction with many other pets and birds, especially cats. They can attract the predatory instinct of other animals and if attacked, any bites or scratches can become fatal to a bird. Therefore, cats or dogs around the house can be a risk to pet birds even if they are in their bird cage.
