Hi Andrew,
Just thought I would drop you a line about my custom built clubs. You
switched me from graphite to steel shafts and standardised all the
shafts in my clubs except for the driver and putter. You fitted me
for irons from sandwedge to five iron including a gap wedge and also
built a 4 hybrid club. You lengthened the shafts by half an inch
which surprised me given that I am of average height around 5 ft 10
inches and my old irons were standard length. These changes have made
a big difference. I am getting a much higher trajectory and greater
distance. The balls landing on the green from a height and stopping
quickly. Interestingly the new clubs are actually lighter than my old
shorter graphite clubs (on the scales). I shot 81 on a very cold
windy day at New Year my best score for a few years and only my
second round with the new clubs. The hybrid is taking a while to get
used to and I am considering going for a 3 and 4 iron instead as my
confidence in my irons is so much better. I would also like to be
fitted for a five wood and will be in touch soon (birthday in Feb). I
was also interested that you suggested playing the driver from the
middle of the stance. Everything else I have read suggests playing the
ball much further forward. Could you explain the rationale again?
Also when to use the gap wedge around the green? Thanks a lot
Best Wishes
Matt Bunn
