I am 6'5" do i need longer clubs?

Question

i really like the cobre s9 irons but i dont know if you can custom order the older models now that the new ones came out.

Answer 1

Yes

Answer 2

yes if you bend over the club too far you could hurt your back

Answer 3

definatly be fitted reshafting and more upright lie you will have brand new irons . cheap investment result priceless . think i heard that once or more

Answer 4

You need to be fitted.  I'm 6' 4" and use standard length clubs.  The determining factor is the distance from your fingertips to the ground.

Answer 5

Probably not, depends on your arm length. Get measured by a the golf shop, no charge.

Answer 6

The cobra s9's are very nice clubs but yet sinse your 6' 5" you might have to bend over a bit during your stance witch could cause some back problems. But with any other clubs the result will be the same because clubs aren't made for an averege height of 6 5 but if you have enough money, you could get the Cobra S9's and then if they're to short, just go to get some new shafts and get them expanded a little.

Good Luck!

Answer 7

You can make some general measurements and use these helpful charts , or you can go to your local Driving range or Golf superstore to get these measurements taken , that will tell you for sure if you need longer clubs and the lie angle flattened or made more upright .http://prolinecustomgolf.com/golf_club_l...

Answer 8

At 6'5", the likelihood is that you will need to get clubs longer than the standard. But you'll need to get fitted to know for sure exactly how long.

Answer 9

Probably not.  It doesn't matter how tall you are, but only if your arms are in proportion to your body.  If your arms are short for your body you will need longer clubs - but so would someone a foot shorter than you.  Standing with your hands at your sides measure from your top knuckle to the floor - if it is around 30-32 inches or so, you won't need custom clubs.

Answer 10

Yes I think that a club fitter will tell you that you need longer than standard shafts.

Cobra is very good about custom orders and a good dealer can set you up with a set from the factory.
