I have been trying for 25 years to solve the "issues" this year I was almost there. (I used mega tape under standard grip to produce fat no taper grip and 1 tablespoon #8 lead shot epoxied in shaft/hosel.) I was convinced my problems were due to slop in the connection of hand and grip. I discovered the Jumbomax and tried an XL i liked it in terms of no more slop. I figured that they might be a bit too large in circumference so I tried the small. I will be replacing all my clubs grips with Jumbo max small size. My hand fits perfect, no contorting, no slop. I did circumference analysis: an image search for Jumbomax and used an online circumference calculator to analyize what size to buy. ( https://www.hirekogolf.com/jumbomax-grips-jumbo-grips-created-equal ) After doing that I see no real point in the Jumbomax medium or large sizes. small is 7/16 bigger circumference than common +1/8, and XL is 6.2/16 bigger than small. The Med and Large are 3 and 5/16 larger than small. Jumping 7/16 seems like a meaningful gap, 3/16 and 5/16 not really. My hand fits on them silky smooth with no slop, 25 years of trying to make under sized "jumbo grips" work has failed and is solved with the Jumbomax size small. ps the lead I use in the shaft means no concern about swing weight, with or without these grips.

You are 17 you need to keep gramps irons talent will be revealed with them if you have any, Save your money for a CAR! It is amazing how few golf courses can be played without wheels. Also insurance, chicks (assume you are male), , college, chicks, green fees, chicks, clothes, chicks, big screen TV for video games, chicks etc etc etc, chicks etc etc etc.......................

"Just clarify that for me." No. I have written you off as a mental case. I will likely just block you so I never see your posts in the future. They are not worth reading being the endless bickering and contrarian for contrarian sake idiocy.

"Also at 6'2.5 cutting down a driver 4-5 inches would be uncomfortable as hell" You must have one H of a time suffering through the use of the 7 wood throught the wedges.

ps long grass can be used as well bu the witness obviously vanishes quickly after you brush through bonus: My theory: I am very right handed and in fact my natural unforced swing arc peak seems to be around my right foot. Hmmmmm????? Could it be that truly balanced ambidextrous people have a swing arc peak near the body center and left dominant have theirs near the Left foot? Hmmmmm? Don't know

"very cheap" You bet Callaway never lets me down. I have seen them used around here as low as $50.00 with no head cover compared to what your "very cheap" means Stiff? I don't notice much difference between stiff and regular.

"I don't understand what the hell you're talking about with regards to a progressive set" I guess if the photos in post 27 can't turn the light on then you are clearly a deliberate and intentional hopeless case that just likes to endlessly bicker. Write Titleist and all the other manufactures and tell then to stop making progressive cavity sets, maybe they could use a chuckle as well.

Good point, technically quite correct but a poster can likely visualize a "flier" better than a "thin" And I GUARANTEE that if you hit a 60 degree wedge thin due to bounce on hard fairway the ball will be flying to far and distant lands that you never intended to visit. Result is the same. thin or flier. "less spin and an unpredictable (but longer) distance."

The objectionist cannot fathom a driver made the length of a 7 wood. There is nothing sacred about 45" but the objectionist just wants someone to decree that he is correct and that is final. It wouldn't matter if a midget had a driver the length of a 5 iron the objectionist would demand that the midget use a 44.5" driver

Good point but if I were OP iI'd check local fitter availablitiy and cost. If that out weighs just buying a dirrerent set then...?

Enlighten me.

WOW! I wish I could answer that. I would be rich. I suggest that you go to the sand box and play. Observe your swing arc witness in the sand and work out your front to back position. Observe the repetitiveness of the in to out arc at various positions and work out the how far from the body ball position, but the lie angle of the club also determines how far from the body. You also want to perfect the "lag" of the swing otherwise your positioning is a frustrating effort in futility. Use your torso as reference points to duplicate points later.

Most likely a good choice but be aware that a poor swing on hard fairway and the bounce may cause a "flier" so keep the hands ahead of the club head and don't flip the head under the ball like trying to scoop it up. I love Cleveland wedges.

There will not be a noticeable improvement you can bank on that. Take a test board with you and masking tape. Insist that you be allowed to tape the club and hit the board several times to get a mark on the tape. The mark should be mid point hosel to toe indicating the lie is OK for you. Paint the board scrap with primer paint and dry for better witness mark If he says no then forget the clubs. Who knows what the lie is to you. The price? Look them up on eBay in the completed listing tab http://www.ebay.com/csc/i.html?_sacat=0&_nkw=Titleist+AP1&LH;_Complete=1&rt;=nc

Unwieldy clubs produce swing flaws. But you are a insistent opinionated person that declares everyone who disagrees with you to have a problem, so I am quite sure that you will declare that unwieldy clubs do not create swing flaws.
