recently saw that i could get my irons fit at the local golf galaxy. i suffer from a very high launch and was wondering if getting my clubs fitted for my swing could possibly aid in the problem along with lessons. thanks, and i apoligize if this is in the wrong forum.

 

As you mentioned, excessive height is usually a loft, swing, and/or shaft issue. So I'm not sure if they can correct that (but they should at least be able to give you some reccomendations). If you bend your clubs stronger they will hit the ball lower and farther (although bounce angles will decrease). Also a stiffer (or higher kick or stiffer tip) shaft will also lower ball flight.

 

Lie angles are typically related to right left misses. If your irons are too flat you will miss to the right and if they're too upright you will miss left. You should get them checked out to make sure you're making contact in the center of teh clubface (especially with your wedges). The more loft a club has, the more important it is that the lie angle be properly fit for you.

 

Hope that helps.

Everyone should get their clubs fitted for their swing. I wouldn't tinker with the lofts too much b/c that will affect the bounce of the club. A shaft like the Dynamic gold with its high flex point should bring your ball flight down. Some people just hit the ball high though. You need to get someone who knows what they're talking about to evaluate your ball flight and swing before you make a whole lot of changes. And this doesn't mean your friends who are double digit handicappers. Good luck.
