Re: Shaft Length

You'll either flex your knees a little more, or bend over a little more. And I do mean little.

Your swing will get a touch steeper due to the shorter shafts, and the toe of your club may get a little flatter.

All small things, really.

You might expect your shots to go a little more right than usual. Again, I mean little - like 5 or 6 feet, tops.

Who knows, you may find that your accuracy goes way up (as promoted by the steeper swing).

I know that even at 6' tall, I prefer my clubs cut down 1/2" or more. I feel as though I have much more control at that point.

A new highlight: Golfing the home course on Christmas Day.

I say it too often: If it's golf club shaped, you can play with it.

For the record, I'm a club doctor, not a swing doctor.
