Hey,
this is my situation: I've stopped playing in 2004 when i was a hcp 17 but more playing around hcp 11 each round. I then stopped due to time constraints. I'm 194cm (6.36 feet) tall and had a swing speed of 105-110mph.
Now I want to start up again and looked at the different equipment thats available. I used to play Mizuno ProII's that were customized in shaft length and lie. Yesterday I got an offer from a friend to buy his clubs of him. The set consists of:
Driver: Nakashima 9.5 Titanium 460cc on a HTD CBX Harmon Tour Design shaft.
FW: Sonartec Driving Cavtiy 4 Loft 16 on a Harrison Striper Tour 701 shaft.
Hybrid: KZG 22 degrees on a Harrison Pro 3.5 Ultra Lite
Irons: Miura CB-201 on a Rifle 6.0 shaft
Wedges: Eidolon 60, 58 and 56 degrees all on Rifle 6.0 shafts
These clubs were custom made for him and he is 1,85cm in size. That's obviously a 10cm difference. I know that your highth is not the only thing that matters in terms of custom fitting but i guess its an indication.
My question now is this: Get the stuff from him or rather go with "cheaper" things and get it customized right away (i.e r7tp's)? Obviously i can let the clubs be re-adjusted as well but that would mean a couple of month more till that happens due to cash flow
