Hey everyone, new to the forum & Golf ( 3 weeks)  . I recently purchased a TM R9 Iron set 3i-P and a Ghost Putter and still working on my swing. I am about 6'3 and got fitted and they said i need my Irons +1'' and STIFF and my question was I was told at golfsmith that I dont have to modify my Drivers / Woods or Hybrids to +1'' , but I asked the same question at another golf shop today and he said If my Irons are +1'' I should modify my driver / wood / hybrids ect....So what is the real truth to this ?

I dont have a driver or wood or any hybrids yet as i want to get my swing down really good on my irons before I buy anything else ( but having a hard time with my 3i-4i I think I am going hybrid on those )

Thanks in advance.

That's a good question.  A lot of drivers are longer now anyways, more than 45".  Check out this link I found just doing some google searches http://golftips.golfsmith.com/long-should-golf-clubs-be-2392.html

You said the first place did a fitting and gave you information, then the second place just told you something.    Did the second place do a fitting as well?   If not, I would tend to go with what the place that actually did the fitting told you.   They would have the most accurate information about you .  I am 6'4" and when I was fitted, they added 2" to my irons, 1" to my hybrid and nothing to any of the woods..    So it is entirely possible that the first guy was correct (It could also be that my fitting was incorrect I suppose but everything seems to work and fit right for me.).

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?

      Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
