Great video, I definitely agree to go by that Ping chart. I'm 6 feet 2 inches tall (6'2 and a half to be exact) with a 37 inch Wrist to Floor measurement and I use +0.5 and 2 degree upright. When I'm using standard length irons I tend to stand too close to the ball, and hunch my upper body forwards and down lower during my swing and hang my arms down too low which causes a lot of weird swing issues. And it also got me into bad habits with my driver swing as well since I started doing the same thing with driver over time.
Recently had 2 iron fittings. 1 at PXG and another at Golf Galaxy. Both were incredible experiences! Tried Ping, Mizuno, taylormade, cobra and PXg. Untimely went with Ping G430 4&5 hybrid 6-pw on a CB graphite reg flex shaft. That setup gave me about 10 extra yards of carry and the best dispersion all around.
@ariasfit it is important ....but the manufacturers do all the heavy lifting to get it right If swingweight varies a lot through the bag that could be an issue ...if 1 club is way lighter or way heavier than the other 12 clubs in play then it could be harder to keep consistent and in play for that 1 club I've seen a facility do swingweight and biomechanical swingweight matching .....the golfers handicaps and scores don't change ....their skill and on course knowledge is the same

Prime example! It was poisoning your Driver swing! I'm happy you're using better lengths now!!

Greetings, how many grams do your graphite shafts weigh?
what are your thoughts on swingweight? does it matter for the average golfer?
