Hello i am 6'6" and my arm span is approximately 6'5" and I have the stock Cobra Cell driver with a stiff shaft which is 45.75" long and its a 62 gram. If you could tell me how long my driver shaft should be it would be very helpful because i feel like its to short for me and its affecting my ball flight.

Welcome to the forum @Jackson42

I would recommend getting fit by a professional fitter.  That would give you the best optimization of length.  I lieu of that, Ping has an online system that uses body measurements.  It is pretty good.  The system needs your wrist to floor measurement as well as height to help determine shaft length.  Have someone measure that while you stand up straight.  Measure to the crease in your wrist.

Yep get fitted is the only thing that can answer  your question.

I'm a 6,1 and use a shorter shaft. just to get me a little bit more control.

    • Shot a 37 with two birdies. 2 highlights which came on the same hole.  Had a 297 yard drive which set me up for a nice approach on my  nemesis hole which I walked off with a birdie. Previous best for ages was a bogey on that hole.  2 more added to the birdie challenge.
    • I can just see Norman rushing in to LIV admin building with his silly shark hat gleaming to the Saudis, ‘ Gentleman! Have I got a great idea! Let’s have our OWN golf courses…like American football and NBA Does! It’ll really grow the game!’ He rushes out as the Saudis give him their encouragement. As the door closes and before the smell of Greg’s Brut cologne has even dissipated, they all laugh hysterically.
    • He wont win. I'm just going to leave it alone, Come on, the guys name is Gooch. The jokes write themselves. Had to suck in high school.
    • Day 122 - Stack session and some Evolvr work.
    • You've heard me say that one of my feels is that the ball will go 45° right… and it doesn't. At all. Just make sure you remember HOW crazy that feel is, because… it may feel that extreme for a long time.
