A couple of questions about my irons.

Hey guys, I was hoping I could get a few ideas from people about a few possible issues with my irons.  I play a 2-9 cleveland ta2 set w/ DGS-300 that are adjusted to 2 degrees upright and 1/2" longer than stock (6'0" tall).

So here are my questions...

Because my irons are all 1/2" longer than stock, does that reduce the flex rating for the shaft?  I feel like I hit my iron shots, especially my longer ones higher and shorter than I feel I should be hitting them.  My swing speed with a Driver is around 95 mph.

I'm considering putting new shafts in the clubs or just buying new irons all together next year and I was wondering if going with the x100 might be a good idea?  Or perhaps switching to Project X's but not sure of what flex?

Or a cheaper alternative would be to shorten my irons (increasing the flex rating???) and possibly adjusting all lie's to 3-4 degrees up.

And finally if anyone has any recommendations on what I should perhaps upgrade too?  Something of similar style (player's cavity, forged, minimal offset, solid feel)

Thanks in advance

You should post that swing.

I used Cleveland TA1 FF (3-P) for most of last season and I purchased a set of Cleveland TA3 FF (3-P) this winter off ebay. Both sets have DG S300. Even though I can't say they're anything other than standard lofts and lies, I suspect the PW on both sets is bent 1-2 degrees weaker than listed here.

TA1 FF and TA3 specs can be found here

Not sure why they don't list the TA2s, but here are standard TA2 specs:

Anyway. . . I'm about 6' 1 3/4"  and I find the setup for the Clevelands to be pretty much perfect for my height. Standard lofts and lies (PW noted) and I even find myself choking up a little.

A half-inch longer shaft would have slightly less stiffness - from a science-fair standpoint - but probably not enough for you to notice. The DG S300 shafts have a high kickpoint, which keeps the ball lower.

Before getting a reshaft you might take a look at your swing set-up, and the ball you play.

my driver speed is around 115, and s300 fit me well so i don't think you would need to go all the way up to x100s.  Your better of getting fitted

Thanks for the responses guys.  They are actually only 1/4" inch longer so almost irrelevant. As for who was asking for me to post my swing.  Do you mean you'd like to see a video of it?  I'll try and get something in the next couple days if I have a chance after work.
