Swing weights

[peter_rs]

After a recent fitting & regrip I noticed that my current set is what I think is on the heavy side.

Irons 3-60* @ D6

Driver/2 wood @ E2

or is this normal now, like the changes in lofts of irons?

What do you use?

[Jarro]

i don't know what my swingweights are.

E2 sounds a bit heavy though, did the clubfitter recommend that weight, or was that what you liked the best ?

What's light and what's heavy?

In irons:

D0 or less is light
D4 or more is heavy. D6 is a seriously "club".

Irons 2-PW...D2
52..............D4
56..............D4
60..............D6
Driver.........D2-3ish
3 Wood.......D2 I think.

Miro what about drivers?

Jarro-
I didn't get the weight changed as I just got all the weights adjusted to the one value; 3,8,56*,60* were lite by 1 to 2 weights. The driver was like that after the reshaft.

I don't notice because my LD clubs go out to E6.

When I started (6 sets ago) my irons where down at c8 in a set of maxfli HT's.

My old irons were D6..........this was when I was off 25 and couldn't hit irons - until Ben tested them and said that no effing wonder!!!!
I now can hit my irons :)
Why would anyone sell someone like me irons like that!!!! Within 2 months ( or so) I dropped 5 shots. Mmmmmmmm- I wonder why?:-D

Where is the option for normal swingweight? My Irons are D1 and wedges are D3

Not sure of the woods but they would be around D1-D2

seriously there is no such thing as normal in that context. But as a guess off the shelf clubs wil be typically around D2 and drivers D0. My Callaway thing may have even been lighter until I glued some sinkers to it.

Whats right for you is not going to be right for someone else.

I play D4, my clubmaker assessed thats what was best for me based on my fitting AND what i was looking for. The latter being equally important - which was hit lower and more accurate.

Well in regards to the poll options what defines light or heavy?

[peter_rs]

OK for the poll->

lite is less then D2 and as for heavy you can work it out ;)

[AndyP]

Should there be an option for super light, light/medium, medium, medium/heavy, and super heavy?

[peter_rs]

No.
