I was reading somewhere that these have a slightly longer club length. I'm 5' 7" and just wondering if these clubs would be a little long for me.

No. I bought this for my teenage son whom is 5'4" and he loves it. He still has room for growth but he says it has helped his game. Good luck to you I think you will be happy with the purchase.

As somebody 6'0, I have noticed any length difference between these irons and my dad's beginner set. While on a course we will typically share irons depending on how far away we are from the cart and I still hit the same part of the iron on both sets.

5 iron is 38 inchesnot sure if this is normal but 2013 rbz irons from taylor made the 5 iron is listed as 38.25 inches.ping g25 the 5 iron is 37,75..so it may be slightly shorter or longer than other brands or models...generally the longer the club the further the ball will go....the best thing about the machspeed irons are the shafts...true temper dynalite which have low kick points to get the ball in the air easier....when i say long and high i mean improved distance and higher ball flights...using these is like cheatin...i love them

The majority of the club shafts are 1 inch shorter than typical women's clubs. Should be o.k. I purchased for someone 5' 2". The only other option is going with Jr. clubs, however, they are normally for about 4'6" average.

I"m 6'5", they were an inch longer than most of my friends clubs, they work fine for me.

I would think so, I'm 6'1.5" and I think these clubs are just right, if not a shy on the short side for me. They have been a solid set for me so far, and at a great price.

These are standard length women's clubs. My wife is 5'2" and these clubs fit her fine. I think they will be fine for you at 5'.

Yes. I certainly believe so. It's the weight and flex with the centrifugal force that seems to help me. I'm 6'1" and felt the longer Gold Flex was for me. It's considerably better than a weight/donut on the end if a golf club.

I believe most clubs are built for average sizes. My son is 5'8" and I was concerned they might be a little too long. But they are perfect for him. So probably too short for your son I'm guessing. I think the best thing for you is to go to some golf stores and find out which brands are sized for someone as tall as your son. Then buy that brand whenever you decide to.

These are nice and nice looking beginner clubs. At 5'5" though, I don't think it is necessary for you to buy petite clubs. It limits your choices severely and you can play just fine with regular ladies clubs. I'm only 5'2" and I play with a regular ladies driver and irons. Most of my fairway woods are now regular length too. You get more distance more easily with the longer club anyway.

No. I would buy this for my son if he was still under 5.2". The length and weight of the club is most important when starting out since it makes hitting balls much less frustrating (forgiving) for a beginner's strokes and gives good distance. Note there are 2, hardly noticable, imprints of western style curlicues (like those on Western boots). Hope this helps.

I am 5'5" and they work great for me, just the right size. But I don't know enough about golfing to know if they would be suitable for someone taller. Although my golf coach is about two inche's taller and she thought ok.

I don't know. They are standard sized clubs. I am 5'6" and they are good for me. My husband thinks they'd probably still be good for 5'9".

Bought this set for my 6'2. It is a great set of clubs. I think it would be a good set for a man 5'10 and up.

I have the set with the extra inch, and I am 6'3" so my guess would be you should get a shorter club. But, I love the quality of the club set in general, so with a shorter shaft it could be great for you. Also, if you use a "Moe Norman" single plane technique, which normally uses longer clubs and a stance significantly far from the ball, it might work well for you.

Justin,I'm 6' tall and they fit me just fine, my buddy is 5"10" and he has use the clubs as well.
1056747
probably not. they are made for like 5 9 to about 6 2. check out junior sized clubs.

I'm not sure. I would guess that they could be shortened but I think the grips might have to be replaced. I'm a 'newbe' at golf but I have been happy with the clubs.

I am only 5' 8" they are really great clubs and had one break and they sent a new one in its place. Have been real pleased with the clubs. I do not see why they will not work for you and how tall you are. Mike G
