I have just got my new clubs which are 3° upright (im 6f3) and i have been used to playing with standard clubs, so far i have noticed a lot of shots comming off the toe or towards the toe end... does anyone have any tips for me to help dial in these new clubs? i knew i would have to adjust my swing to these new clubs but just looking for some advice (will prob also get a lesson or 2) has anyone else been in a similar situation?

I got measured up and the lie board/tape said i needed more upright clubs, they also put some tape on the front of the club and got me to hit a ball and that confirmed it.. does this sound right?

I'm 6'3 and use standard clubs, and they seem to be fine... maybe I should get fitted though.

Dam now im worried that they may be wrong for me!! I think it might be a good investment to get a few lessons with the new sticks to see if they are right or more importantly if im swinging them right!!

Personally, I would have looked for a good professional club fitter and have him/her evaluate and fit me with a set. What do I know? I’ve been playing with the same irons for 13 years (bought off the rack).

I think you should get some lessons to make sure. i think (without seeing your swing of course) that being 6.3 you should be looking at at least 1 or 2 degrees upright.

My mate who is 6.4 or 6.5 plays with 3 degrees upright.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By saevel25 ·

      Timing yes, feeling maybe not exactly 😉 Weight shift forward can start as early as A3. Weight shift is a lateral sway.

      That sounds good. And, yeah, the default camera app tries to take in as much light as possible.

      Good tip. You can’t set the shutter speed manually on the built-in camera app on an iPhone, but it’s possible with a different app. I bought the ProCam 8 ($9.99), where you can set everything manually. For videos, I can set it to a maximum of 1/1600-1800. I tried 60 and 240 FPS, and even at 60 FPS the video is much better with higher shutter speed than the built-in app where you can’t control the shutter speed. You can see the face angle in every frame, while on the built-in app with 240 FPS the entire club is a blur. And that’s with only a pair of portable LED work lights.
