Looking forward to hearing how it goes. I think just getting the custom fit will help immensely. Especially for a dude your size!

GI clubs, because of their amazing forgiveness, do not give you the specific feedback that allows you to improve your contact in the way, oddly enough, that their name would suggest. If you want serious improvement of your ball striking, make the switch and then make the decision to commit to learning to hit these clubs well.
With the logic above, why do we not all use smaller headed drivers to tee off with so that we can improve our tee game? Using something smaller that provides more feedback does not mean one will improve their ball striking. It means one CAN improve their ball striking, the same way one CAN improve their ball striking with any irons. Its about learning how to swing the club properly. No iron in the world will do that for a golfer and the notion that because it has a smaller "sweet spot" that it will train someone to be a better ball striker is just not true in my opinion.
JWLI,
I would recommend listening to this THP Radio show with club making icon John Hoeflich. I think you would really enjoy it.

I checked it out and it was very interesting and surprisingly frank in regard to the future of the industry as well as current successes and failures. It's nice to know that an "Industry Guy" can be as candid as he was.
Question: Regarding the pro's not being able to tell the difference between cast and forged, I take it that the survey refers to current PGA Tour pro's right?
I'd be interested to know how the pro's on the Senior Tour would respond to that same survey since they're the ones who grew up with forged blades.
Do you think the outcome would be the same or do you think they'd be able to see more of a difference?
