thanks for the reply Frank. My personal set is actually identical to your set and I agree with your comments on use of woods totally.
However, you did not answer my question in regard to any logical explaination of why the golfsmith recommended dimensions leave a discontinuous 3 inch difference between the 3 iron and 5 wood lengths ?. I'm just looking for some reasonable explaination that I for one have failed to grasp. cheers, Shay. --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > In a message dated 1/21/2003 7:34:30 PM Eastern Standard Time, > [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > > > >What gives ?. > > > > > >Cheers, > > >Shay. > > > > > > > Forget about lofts, lies etceteras.
