Is this pass/fail?....sounds like 5* upright...I'm not in favor of bending all the lies the same amount...I think a graduated bending is in order...maybe 2* on the short, then 3* for mid irons, long irons 4* upright...in hitting tests that's about what it came out for me, of course your actual numbers may vary...why did they keep wanting to give you longer clubs? I'm 6'2" and used standard length until SA...
How were you measured?...hp
