Thanks alot for those resources!

I thought I was doing myself a real service by getting fitted, but after reading some posts on here I don't think I was properly fitted. My "fitting" consisted of me swinging the 2 clubs ( r7 draw and X20's) I had chosen on a black hitting mat with impact tape applied to the base of the club, and a swing meter placed behind me. It took all of 5-10 minutes in which it was determined that I needed a standard length and lie.

When I put in my measurements in Golfsmith's custom fitting guide I get that I need a 2 degree flat lie and a 1/2 shorter shaft length.

I have read though that fittings vary from place to place and you never really know if you're being properly fitted.

I just purchased a 3 and 5 wood r7 Draw set off of ebay (sadly it appears that I am becoming a "ho" ) Seemed like too good a deal to pass up...so your comments on the TM shafts are very interesting to me! Taylor Made r7 Draw 3 & 5 wood (set 2) Regular Flex NEW on eBay Clubs, Golf, Sporting Goods


Thanks again!
