I'm 6'3" and my dad wants to put extensions on my irons (normal length); in your estimation would this be beneficial or not?

Thanks.

Have you gone and gotten fitted? It's all about your swing...I don't know if extensions would fit into you game since your 6 3, b/c I know a lot of players that are about that tall and are fitted to the standard length. You need to be fitted before you go and extend them.
What's In The Bag?

Driver - Rapture 10.5 Epic 68g X-Pure - Balance Certified

Ditto. Extensions are a last resort. You can usually just put in a lighter shaft (even steel) if you really need an extra inch or two. Otherwise you're probably just looking at an upright lie angle and maybe 1/2" longer shaft, which is nothing.

    • Impressive! I practice these shots along with my putting on most days. Would love to see where my spin numbers are! On the course this method has dramatically changed the way I think about chipping.

    • Last couple sessions I’ve felt good. I’ve managed to PB on almost every different weight I’ve used except the 195g which most will know is the weight used to identify driver eSpeed. i have noticed a very slight increase however in my 195g ‘Full Swing’ whereas my ‘Max Swing’ has been stuck at 102mph last few sessions. I do feel like I have quicker in me. My target at the start would have been to get to 105mph giving an eSpeed of 115mph. With around 50% or so of the foundations programme left I think this is definitely achievable
