What are standard loft's?

Does anyone know what the standard loft's are for 3 iron to PW, and also what loft the pros bend theirs to? I hit the ball really high and was thinking of de-lofting my irons.

Thanks in advance.

It goes a little something like this:

2: 16°
3: 19°
4: 22°
5: 26°
6: 30°
7: 34°
8: 38°
9: 43°
PW: 47°
GW: 51°
SW: 55°
LW: 59°

Now, these are all give or take 2° manufacturer to manufacturer.

Hmm, interesting. I have Nike Blades and they are about 2-3 degrees more loft per iron, now I'm thinking since I hit it so high, would it be a good idea to get them de-lofted?

Thanks.

Getting them delofted would be the fastest and most effective way of bringing down your ball flight, yes.
