Many golfers order a custom iron set on GolfDriver.nl where the clubs are different from the standard version. On request, clubs are then lengthened or shortened or fitted with a specific shaft or grip. We call this 'custom fitted clubs'.
We keep extended irons sets in stock!
If you have ever bought an extended set of A-brand irons, you know that you sometimes have to wait weeks for them. Patience is a virtue, but it is not always necessary to wait that long for a fitted club...
At GolfDriver.nl we still sell most of the irons sets (75%) in the standard version. We have many of these sets in stock so you can get on the golf course with your new set as soon as possible. With the other 25%, clubs are lengthened or shortened and the manufacturer makes sure that your clubs are 'custom made' for you. The vast majority of golfers who order a custom fit will do so with a 1 inch extension (and a 2° up lie). Therefore, we at GolfDriver.nl have decided to keep many popular iron sets also with 1 inch extension in stock. That will save you weeks of delivery time!
How is it extended?
Some golf shops extend standard length irons with custom made extension bushings which are glued to the back of the shafts. At GolfDriver.nl we are absolutely not fans of this. These bushings tend to loosen over time and move when you use the club. As soon as you feel it during your swing, all your focus is gone. Not a good idea. ALL extended irons that we supply at GolfDriver.nl are manufactured to that length (in one piece) by the manufacturer. No messing around with quality.
