I have done it for a couple of Lynn's schools and it was well received. Just a thought.
I would love to see a video, that would be great!

As for my current specs, standard length/lie Macgregor 1025M's, S300, although I was being fit for a set of Ping I5's (a gift I couldn't refuse). Final spec on those was a 64.5 deg lie (6 iron). That had me a 'touch' still towards the toe off the lie board, but anything more got me going left of left. S300 on those, perhaps s400 - I liked the feel of the SL, much easier to square up, but hard to keep the ball flight down. The lie angle made the biggest difference, but I sure noticed how much offset/shaft weight could adjust flight. I hit a Titleist 755 CB (I think that was it) that had more offset and a light shaft and had to really fight that one from going left, even with the same shaft/lie as other designs.

It was enlightening to see how much difference in ball flight could be made with the different specs, and how much I had been 'fighting' my current specs (which I had been fit for, but obviously didn't still 'fit'). Didn't stop me from shooting a decent back nine with the old sticks that day though (34)
