I'm 6-5 and getting older. Never have been great at the game, but enjoy playing. Someone told me that at my height, I should have clubs that are 1 1/2 to 2 inches longer. The only irons I feel that may help me are my short irons (literally). I see that there are club sets that are designed for taller players. Anyone have any experiences with them? Good idea or not?

I could definitely be a couple inches longer

You’d definitely benefit by at least an inch, I’d think.

I would try to hit some longer clubs at a demo day and see how they feel. I’m 6’3” and was fitted for +1/2” inches for irons but -1/2” in my 3 wood and driver. I looked at the guy like he was crazy when he told me try a shorter shaft in my 3w and driver but I hit them way better.
