Wow Dog! It is like you mirrored my mind! I'm so lost in what I should be playing for shafts, clubs, lie angle, the whole works! About the only thing I know for sure is I'm happy with my ball(Q-Star Tour) and to never take my shoes off while flying! ?I have questions and uncertainty in many club aspects: shaft weight, shaft type, grip type and size, wedge brand.
But analysis paralysis hits me most at type of clubs to play. Fitters have wanted to put me in clubs I think are beyond my ability. I have this notion I need more extras and help. I’m not seeing my scores improving. I also feel that as an older (but not old) golfer I should be considering different options. IDK. And then when I hit different types of clubs I don’t see meaningful differences. I get confused, even frustrated. For example I hit say a GI iron (HM) worse than something like a 919T. But I am far from a good golfer. I think I have potential and to become a better player. I can be randomly confident and playful online, but out here I feel somewhat lost in where I fit in this game, equipment spectrum, and even this forum. Learning all of those I hope. ⛑
For me, it's lie angle.
Up until five years ago I never cared about it. Then I got fit at Club Champion and saw I would benefit from "1-degree flat." That phrase stuck in my mind for months, especially as I got new equipment thereafter. I assumed I needed EVERYTHING 1-degree flat, no matter what.
What I failed to realize was there is NO standard in golf equipment... so 1-degree flat compared to what?
I've of course learned that there are specific lie angles that perform best for my swing, to the number. So now I focus on bending my clubs to those numbers, if needed. Of course, if my ball flight is fine as-is, then no bending required.
