What is the official way to measure the length of a wood? or iron? Thanks

Well, I am not sure what the official wayis, but the way I

was taught was to take a 48 inch steel ruler. You can buy

these from Home Depot or one of the golf supply

houses.

Put your club in its playing position, put the ruler flat against the back

of the shaft so that the bottom of the ruler is resting on the floor

touching the heel of your club. Measure at the top of the grip

cap.

There are other ways of course, There is a True Measure device,

and Mitchell sells a nice jig to put your club in and then measure.

But the above way should be close enough.

Hope this helps

According to the USGA the club must be on a 60* angle and then measure along the back of the shaft to the top of the grip.
