To me an Iron should have a steeper swing with ideal contact with the ground at or in front of the ball whereas I have always had the swing thought "sweep" on my Hybrid and Fairway Woods. In following this approach I am a little conflicted as I have also heard many times over the years (again TV pro) that your swing stays the same, only the club changes.
