totally agree that a basic fitting was enough. He took static measurements and I hit with some tape on the clubs and a black board. For the same reasons you mentioned about swing development, the fitting pro was actually planning on bending my diablo edges until we realized the Razr HLs were on sale and I could still get a trade in value for the edges. thanks

you should get fitted. I'm 5'2" and not only did I need the shafts cut down and inch 1/4, I also needed clubs with a lie angle which is a degree flat.

thanks for the reply and thats really interesting how you figured out that you cant hit a white head club. I have a Burner 2.0 3 wood with the white head, can't say I have a problem hitting it, probably hit it better that my black crown Diver. My custom Razr HLs are coming in this week so I'll let you know how it goes, but I played today with my current standard Diablo Edges, and just chocking down the inch and 1 quater helped a lot. I'm sure the proper length and the proper lie will make an improvement.

Not many grass ranges at all on Long Island, so I'm left hitting off mats. That being said, I can clearly tell my fat shots (my biggest issue) from my pure shots.

Being new to the game (playing since last august), I made the mistake of picking up an off the rack of diablo edge irons last fall. But here is the BIG mistake, I'm only 5 foot 2. Since the standard size golf club is made for someone much taller, I figured I'd go down to the local shop and get fitted. The fitter told me that my shafts had to be shorten an inch and 1/4 and that I needed my current clubs to be 2 degrees flat. So, I'm trading in my Diablos and ordered a set of Razr X HLs. When I hit the HL Clubs he said I the shafts shorten an inch and 1/4 but these only have to be 1 degree flat. so here is my question, does it make sense that the diablos and the Razrs need to be 1 degree different? I did not swing using a launch monitor, just using tape and a black board. and do you think these new fitted clubs will help me get more consistent with my iron game.

I have to agree with Bullitt5339, being 5'2", how in the world could you tell me a club fitting could not help my game?? I play hockey and I have never not cut down my hockey stick! If you are not in the standard range, a club fitting just makes sense!
