OK, from a club fitters stand point......

If you are a brand new golfer the facts will be that you need... Thick Top Line Irons, Over Sized face, Low Center of Gravity, not expensive set, and cut to your lenght. Then and only then can you watch a person swing and determine if the Lie needs to be change. I an not talking about adjusting to his swing either, I am stating that if his swing looks like Grandma sweeping the back porch then I would say that adjusting his clubs would be an absolute waste of time.
