Hah plus one inch on a mizuno mp 32 and D 8 for me, but I do like a heavy club. Is that a problem? What would that do theoretically to a swing or ones release? Hogan's clubs were long, heavy and counter balanced to D1.....same with Knudsons (of course).

I stuck a counter balance in the grip end of my 5 iron......not sure about it . I suppose I could get used to it. It brings the swing weight down a few.

Funny you should bring this up Drew, I was just searching the net trying to find out about the implications of a heavy swing weight.

Kev do you have any thoughts on this? If it causes me to release earlier Ill counter balance them I guess. Im a smooth swinger, no big quick loading if that makes a difference. Random sweep release. 88 mph 7 iron. S300, married with two kids, anglo saxon, briefs not boxers.
