Angry Longer Clubs

Hi

I have been playing golf for several years and, only recently, have deceided to start getting good.

I am 6'6 tall and up till now have been using regular length clubs.

I went to a store and saw the Ping range, I got provisionally fitted, he said I need 1' longer shafts because of my height and because I have a high swing speed (100) I need stiff to extra stiff shafts.

I have noticed that I hit all my irons on a very high trajectory, which he said was a result of too much flex in the shafts. I still belt the ball a long way (4iron ~200yds, Dr 280-300)

All my clubs have regular flex, and hence it is not going to be cheap to create this new uber-set.

So my quesiton is, is it really worth $1000???

I usually drive pretty straight, but they have a tendancy to pull left sometimes. I borrowed a T MADE R510 with ex stiff shaft and nailed them stright all day.......is this just a more forgiving club though???

Help and advice and suggestions appreciated!!

Thanks

Andy
