Pulling the ball

[MyBigPutter]

I have just started hitting my new MX-25s and I seem to be pulling the ball alot. When I was fitted, the gut said I needed an extra 1/2" on my clubs. Could this be a factor at all? I really like the sticks but I do seem to hit them left a lot.

It could be a million things why you're pulling the ball, remember belt buckle aiming at your target and try losening your grip a little bit. Just my $0.02.

Could be but then again I'm not the club fitter. Longer shafts potentially could be harder to control if not fitted correctly. But as the previous poster said, it could be lots of things. Were your previous irons a half inch long? If not then you either could be fitted incorrectly or just need some time to adjust to the correct fitting.

it could be the difference between the two set of clubs, what set did you have before, also have you change anything in your swing recently,

It is unlikely that it is the extra 1/2 inch, if you have good contact. Longer clubs play a little flatter, which can encourage a push, more upright can encourage a pull. If your old clubs were flatter that could be a factor. If they have more offset the different look can lead to you not aiming the face correctly. It is more likely you are trying to bust your new ones and just using a little to much right side effort. Try a little more pull with the left side or just smooth out your transition.
