Yeah, it's hard to know in what way you need your clubs adjusting if you are a beginner or inconsistent. I'm sure my clubs are too long for me and I need a flatter lie but I adjust my setup to put the club flat behind the ball and not on the heel or toe.

The other day I came across a club maker's website and it had a table for your height and the distance between the floor and your wrist and told you what length club and what lie you needed. I can't remember where it was tho.

I know for my height and wrist to floor it said for 0.5 >1.0 inches shorter than standard for club length and it said I needed a flatter lie.
