Re: 1/4" vs. 1/2" between iron lengths ?

Here it is...

Golf Club Distance Calculator


Funny thing about technological "advances"...lofts on irons are getting stronger, the shafts longer all in pursuit of more distance...I think that clubs have actually gone over the brink and standard sets are too long for standard people...I switched to an old set of irons from my fitted mp60s...irons I found off the rack in a used shop...all shaft lenghts were standard for 1991...- 1/2" over today's standard and the lofts were considerably weaker by about one club...I immeditely hit them more solidly and longer...very long, about a club to a club and a half longer and straighter as well...so much for modern day clubfitting...

No computer program is going to explain that but common sense will...
