Since the above post was my first I am not quite sure how to respond to the reply's but here goes.--
Two detail I left out. Yoda's old irons told a great story. Long irons worn out on the toe, middle irons in the middle and short irons to the heal. Common pattern for 1 degree change from club to club. Long Irons too flat, short irons too upright---we bend 1/2 degree from club to club. Will be interest ing to see how Yoda marks the set when they come in tomorrow. Ted and Steve who are better fitters than I am will do follow up. Also shafts are modified slope--what we call a flat cut. Basically one flex through the whole set rather that a tradional slope with several flexes in the set. ---Seems like a GM person would prefer a flat cut to a traditional cut ---we can do them either way Yoda wants them. Follow up is most important part for us---like sighting in a gun--fine tuning after the fact. If I can get to Atlanta I would love to watch the delivery---. Billy
Has selection of HG's improved? When I was fit only the
blade type was available. As you can well imagine they are
well worn and in need of replacement.
Was fit here in Florida by a man from Pennsylvania.
Cannot remember his name but he knew his stuff.

In a fitting session that lasted four-hours, it's safe to say that Billy McDonald and I tested every reasonable Clubshaft-Clubhead combination...Hitting and Swinging! I finally decided on the new RDH3 head www.henrygriffitts.com/RDH3.asp. Better said, it decided for me! Somewhere along the way I had stopped 'testing' and was just enjoying hitting Ball after Ball into a slight breeze. High shots. Low shots. Fades. Draws. The dreaded Straight Ball. Billy snapped me out of it and mercifully stopped the marathon session with this remark:
"This must be the one you like...you've hit the last fifty balls with it."
As usual, he was right, and the proof was in the pudding. I played my first round with the new sticks at Atlanta Country Club, for thirty years the site of the PGA TOUR's Atlanta Golf Classic, and shot 70.
