Random club build/setup question.

[Mp14forlife]

So, I have new set of mp20s. I had been playing mp14s. Lofts are two degrees stronger on the 20s. I'm definitely hitting them farther, less spin with each club etc...rather than bending them weaker which reduces offset, increases bounce, I'm a sweeper, I know 2 degrees really shouldn't affect much but I'd rather not mess with loft unless it was to go stronger.. So, if I just label every club differently in my mind,new 9 is really an 8, new 7 really a 6. Etc. Well, here's the real question, I am reshafting them, so would I want to put my normal length 6 iron shaft in the 7 iron head and play it to 6 iron length? I will be ditching the 3 iron cause the 4 goes plenty far and I will pick up a gap wedge due to the new pw playing as my 9 iron. Thanks for any info, sorry for the long post. I just didn't know if it's all relative or if I should put the longer length shaft and cut it to my normal playing length of the club in my mind, so 6 iron shaft in 7 iron head and cut to 6 iron playing length.

You will be adding 3 swingweight points to each of those clubs if you add 1/2 inch of shaft length.  Remember that each of those clubheads are a certain weight in order to match up with the length of the shaft.  If you are hitting the new clubs well, I would just stick to those lengths.

Hadn't thought about swingweight. Thank you. My old ones are heavy. D6ish, could save me from tip inserts or lead tape. My old mp14 6 iron head was 267 grams, mp20 6 iron head 260 grams.
