the length matters?

[Fastrack]

I'm getting >10 yard increase for 1/4 inch longer shaft for the same iron of the same brand. This would be enough gain for me to use one less club, helping significantly with better control/accuracy/consistency from one less club.

Is there any concern of getting even 1/2 inch longer with probably 1*flat (or adjusted coreectly to compensate increased length)?

Your feedback is deeply appreciated.

if you're comfortable and can swing the club with the extra length, then I say go for it. I find that when the club's too long, it's hard to control. That's why i didn't leave my driver shaft to stay at 46". I cut it down to make a 45" club with the head!

I guess 1/2 inch would be overkill, will do just 1/4 inch longer with 1 degree flat to get the same lie. Any thought?

My gilrfriend said the length doesn't mattter. But on my irons i had them bent and they wanted to put lenth on them. Left them alone just had em bent...... hitting them sweet so far.
