This was at Golfsmith fyi. He told me they would only go a +2 on a set of clubs. Anything after that you start to lose the integrity of the shaft. Now im not sure this is written in stone everywhere, but thats what i was told.
They have many different options of irons. Like others have said, they'll let you swing what youre looking to purchase. I liked that they were pretty honest with me and not looking to just take my money. I told them i was just trying to learn, and see if i liked it or not. They told me to buy a cheaper set of irons and work up from there. No need to dump a ton of money into them and hate it. They all do returns and all that fairly easy. They'll also do "trade ups" later down the line if you decide you do want to buy a different set. All in all i think i walked out with irons/driver/3W/putter/bag for around $1000 bucks. Decent set of callaway irons and drivers. Ive been going to the driving range every day and i really am enjoying it. I do just like you sometimes where i seem to stand up on my down swing and get the top of the ball. Im getting better with practice. Im still lobbing that bitch to the right though a good 5 outta 10 times lol.
OH..the custom length only took them about 3 days to complete. I had the shafts +1 and i had them add grips i liked. Turn around time was minimal as they do it all in house once they get the iron shafts.
