Dez & Max,

My NG CI's were the first to tell me of needing two extra inches of shaft for the ten finger grip, the only explanation that they gave me was what I've already stated. On Jack K's Innovation website it says from one to two inches. If you are fitted properly by a SA company that you're buying clubs from I don't see where this would be an issue. I can see where it would be an issue if you were to build your own clubs or if you had someone build your clubs that wasn't familiar with SA.
