Faldo and Woosnam play with the same length shafts - it's all about the lie angle. Faldo being very tall, Woosnam being not very tall - they both gripped it in a similar fashion so it wasn't all that noticable.

Kim grips down on a longer shaft than perhaps suits him from a conventional point of view - but sometimes the best golfers do things their own way.

You can always see the end of Sergios clubs too - it's the style he plays.

I asked Brett Porath, Director of Titleist FittingWorks, about this today and he pointed out that most golfers have a similar wrist-to-floor measurement in the setup position anyway, so golfer height is almost irrelevant.

Almost all of the Titleist custom fit jobs fit within +/- 1/2" and within +/- 2° lie angle. So from yet another perspective, Kostis' statement is puzzling (and/or a bit dumb).

    • DAY 5:  Range session (60 min) -- GRASS IS OPEN FOR 1st TIME THIS SEASON! 😍
    • Day 29: Did about 20 minutes of putting indoors while leftovers were heating up, and then hit some balls after dinner for another 10 minutes before it got dark.
    • Hardly. Tiger’s stats far exceed those of Nicklaus’ other than the ‘Majors.’ I put majors in quotes because several of Jack’s major wins were grossly weak in depth of field.    Im sure you’re aware that major wins as the sole criteria was Jack’s idea only after he realized he wasn’t gonna be able to surpass Snead’s total wins. Which of course was Jack’s criteria originally. Jack also moved the goal posts by not counting Amateur championships after Tiger won three to Jack’s two.
    • Day 126 - Stack session and some divot board work. 
    • after some years experimenting around, I've settled on a mixed bag of mostly Pat Simmons vintage Tiger Sharks (the ones with the blue enamal on back of the clubheads): 3 thru 9 iron, + 3 wedges (PW, sand, chipper). Those super heavy clubheads really help me get my swing down and thru the ball. Also I carry an old Taylor 18-degree rescue club, 17-degree and 14 degree ImagineGolf metalwoods, and the famous Pat Simmons "alien" 1-iron. Finally a real brick-on-a-stick, the big-headed Bettinardi Ben Hogan model putter which is excellent for taking the break out of short putts and getting the ball hole high on long ones. Wait....is that 15 clubs? Oh well....
