I was recently fitted, for clubs. I am 6 foot 2 inches, and am 38 inches with shoes on from wrist to ground.

They told me to extend them 1.5 inches, I was just looking at a sizing chart and that seems long. Does it sound about right to you?

looking at the Ping Fitting Chart it does seems long. its saying about +1/4" only. you got some long a$$ arms man! if i were you i would test out a multitude of differnet length clubs (demos often are up to +2" and have a grip that signifies the differnet lengths to hold the club at) and see how they all feel and how impact is.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
