Ever have your clubs “Fitted” and the fitter said he chopped off 2 inches off your driver. Your hitting club well, but you’d like to be absolutely sure that the measurement is what he says it is. Well here’s the info:
c. Length.-
The overall length of the club must be at least 18 inches (457.2 mm) and, except for putters, must not exceed 48 inches (1,219.2 mm). For woods and irons, the measurement of length is taken when the club is lying on a horizontal plane and the sole is set against a 60 degree plane as shown in Fig. I. The length is defined as the distance from the point of the intersection between the two planes to the top of the grip.
