Club Length Based on Height: What Should I Use?

Has anyone ever had a fitting and felt like the recommended length was totally off? I’m curious about those experiences because I felt my clubs were too short last time.

Haha! I once got a set of clubs that felt like they were made for a toddler! Never again. :joy:

When selecting club length, your height is a crucial factor. Typically, taller golfers need longer clubs. It’s also important to consider your arm length and stance. Custom fitting can make a significant difference in your game!

Absolutely! I found a fitting session really enlightening. They measured more than just height—like wrist height and posture. It’s amazing what a little customization can do!

Height is key, but don’t underestimate your flexibility and swing style. Those can affect how a club performs for you. Getting a fitting helps you see all those variables in action.

That’s true! I once went from 3-putting to making long putts after getting the right length. It’s not just about height!

I think fitting is more about comfort than height alone. A club that feels good can totally boost your confidence. Just make sure it’s not too short or too long—either can mess with your swing!

Exactly! If you’re comfortable, you’ll likely play better. Anyone tried those adjustable length clubs? Do they actually work?

I’ve used adjustable clubs! They can be handy, but I think a proper fitting is best for finding that sweet spot. The feeling of a well-fitted club is hard to beat—trust me!

Well said! But isn’t it funny how everyone seems to have their ‘secret’ fitting techniques? Like fishing for the perfect rod at the pro shop!

So true, haha! Every time I’m at the shop, I see someone measuring their clubs like they’re doing a height check for a ride at an amusement park. What’s next, a custom ‘fit’ eyeliner for golfers?
