Excellent that you explained the difference in so called standard lengths between manufacturers as most golfers do not realise this.

This demo is more the correct way to figure things out. Every golfer has a personal swing-style that needs to be taken into heavy consideration when deciding what the correct shaft length should be. My new irons are actually 1 inch longer than standard and they "feel" right at the very low limit of what I can handle as I have an upright swing style and also don't use the common inter-locking hand grip most golfers swing with, so I am actually using more of the available surface area of my club's mid-size shaft grip when I grip the club with my own preferred method. All these variables added up to me requiring a longer shaft length than even I had originally anticipated. It is always easier to leave your club shafts too long rather than too short, as they can always be cut down and re-gripped later on down the road when you figure out the exact shaft length down to the most accurate millimeter that works best. In short, get fitted by someone knowledgeable, and get the right clubs, with the right shafts installed, customized with the correct sized grips. Golf is difficult enough as it is, and it becomes a virtually impossible experiment in perpetual failure and frustration unless the right customized equipment is used. Watch and learn.

Holy crap! You have the quickest tempo I've ever seen. I bet you can play 18 holes in about 25 minutes.

I’ve just bought longer irons for the first time I’m 6’5” and have to swing most clubs in some form of weird half squat! I hope my back and knees will thank me for this :)

Which of the 3-9 irons are used most often? I thought that if I bought the 2 or 3 most commonly used, I could save a lot of money and carry less weight in my golf bag!

I assume that spin rate would be effected and that would be a big factor in distance.

This is something I’m working on. Picked up a set of Nike irons recently and they are about a half inch longer than standard 38.75 five iron. They seem to agree with me as long as I maintain my tempo. Will I find myself going over the top more or coming from the inside more as a tendency. I’m really looking at the strike on the club face to monitor this issue. It seems that I’m closer to the heel on most hits which tells me I’m coming from the inside on most swings. Am I on the right track? Please reply. Thanks . By the way I am 5 ft 6 . I don’t think a little longer club is a bad thing from your Ian Woosnam story

question for you trugolf academy, my lie on HMT is always toe down (need to bend it upright) but even when i bent them upright, i still hit the balls on the toe. i am 5'10" (178cm) which suggets standard length or 1/4" longer and still had my irons 1/4" longer. club path and face angle are pretty straight. any idea?

Hi, I am a beginner and looking at buying off the shelf clubs 6 2 and wrist to floor of 39 inches. All the charts say half inch extra. Problem being a can only by off the shelf standard or plus 1 inch. Would you recommend going for the 1 inch or standard?

I was hitting my 45.5 inchepic flash standard took of 1.5 inches and my strikes are consistently gettimg hit out of the center of the face its completley changed my tee shot and im actually gaining distance

I’m 6ft 3 and looking at plus 1 inch package sets as I’m new to golf. Can anyone give me advice if they think they will be okay? I’ve used normal clubs and I do find I top the ball a lot! Yes this is mainly to do with me being rubbish but could the extra inch help?

What happens when you correct your stance distance?

I'm 6'6" and I'm not consistent at all but when I do make decent contact With my irons they're always off the toe.

I am confused about fitting for static length of clubs. I have clubs that were built for me 1 inch longer than standard (my wrist to floor length is a little over 38 inches while common belief is the 7 iron standard length is 37 inches). My 7 iron swing weight with TT XP-95 R300 shafts is D5. Lie angle set at 2 degrees upright. A different fitter is now telling me this setup is wrong. He says it's better to stay closer to standard length and adjust the lie angle instead to set the bottom of my swing. He says it also stiffens the shaft by lengthening them. Confusion reigns! What to do? There seems to be more than one philosophy regarding all this. Is wrist to floor a useless measurement?

You would think clubfitters would have clubs with different shaft lengths ready to try out. The places ive went to didnt have anything smaller than a standard. Id rather have a club too small than too long. At least with a small club you can be more bent over at impact and less likely to flip it too early.

I use Mizuno JPX 825

I want to hit my irons like Hogan

There's no way that only 3 shots can give you a valid sample. You should have taken 10 or more then you have sufficient data to formulate an opinion. Mathematically you would ignore the best and the worst as flukes and take an average of what's left. And average of one shot ?????

How tall are you?

He didn't mention "offline"...that was just as important.......needed to show which shaft gave him the straightest average.

when you changed shaft length you changed swing weight

Volume too low. I had to Max my tv just to hear it

Here's two tips... if you are doing a video on comparing shaft lengths, don't take 5 of the 12 minutes continually talking about what you are going to do. Just do it... second... the chart that shows the results is too small to read. I don't need to see you staring at the screen. Make the results screen fill the whole page.
