Default Re: Good Starter Set of Clubs.. thoughts on PING G5?

I'm 6'3 w/ a 6'6 wingspan. A lot of 'pros' wanted to put me in long clubs simply because of my height, however it's important to realize that with longer clubs comes a dramatic change in swing weight. 1/2" over often changes a D-3 to a D-5 which swings you more than you swing it.

Hopefully if you purchased 1/2" from ping, they pick the underweight heads to use in their factory long clubs. Perhaps you get some D-4s (if god loves you).

If you find you hate the weight and length, the good news is that you can always chop the tops quickly and easily.
