Well last summer I was about 5'10" when I bought my Nike CCi irons standard length. I figured that I was in the right height range and didn't need fitting. However now i am 6'2 1/2", and I find myself bending my knees more to get the club in the right position. My shots are not what they used to be either, they are now constantly right for the most part. My dad suggested that I go get fitted with some different angle lies and shaft lengths so I can fix my game. Do you guys think that fitting will make a difference?

4 1/2" is pretty significant. I'd say your dad's probably right.

BTW.....I'm glad that I'm not the one that's having to feed you!

Yes. You absolutely need to be refitted. No doubt.

I just took a photo of my setup about 20 minutes ago and the club is about 1/2" -3/4" off the ground when i set up correctly, and the only way the club gets to the ground is if i bend my upper body more. So I'm pretty sure I will be getting refitted in another week or so. I'm not exactly sure about where to get fitted though...My dad has got a fitting from Jim Phenicie for his driver later this month, Jim is one of like ten Titleist super fitting specialist in the country or something, so i might end up there. I was also wondering about which companies have the best fitting systems like the Ping dots or Nike 360 system? or should i just go the a pro and get it done ther?

      Who Else Hates Scrambles?

      Ah.. my regular weekend league. Lol Scrambles are fine. Usually there's charity involved. So there's that. There are much worse events Im forced to attend twice a year.

      Does Justin Thomas have a massively underrated short game? It seems every time I look up he's hitting it close from a tough lie after short siding himself. What masterful touch

      I freaking hate them. Too expensive, cheaters, food sucks, too dependent on weather, I keep telling myself never do it again but I'm a dummy

      I enjoyed the A-B-C-D scramble we did at Kittyhawk before it shut down. Yes. The point was to meet the other members and get the season kicked off. Nobody took it too seriously. At least with that group, cheating wasn't a big issue.  As the D part of A-B-C-D, I enjoyed getting to play with one of the Association's top players. One year I played with the city champ. Man could he hit a ball.  It probably isn't something I'd want to do more than once a year, but it has its place.
