This is not a technical question, but I see that you have an Amazon.com presence but you don't offer a lot of customization for your clubs through it. I had been hoping to use an Amazon gift card that I had to order a sample golf club to try out but as I need a club that is longer than typical I can't order it through Amazon.
I suppose the question is "any way around this?" If not I will probably still order a sample club soon but I was hoping to be able to do it sooner than later.
Any thoughts anyone?

On a more technical note. I have been playing with a number of club fitting tools online (including yours) and now wonder if I should adjust the lie angle along with the +1" increase in length that I would like to do to accommodate my height (6' 4 1/2" in sneakers)

Thanks in advance for any answers you can offer.

Paul:

Unfortunately the templates for Amazon do not allow customization other than a stock shaft, grip, length and lie.

Since you are already making the clubs longer, this will have an effect of increasing the lie angle. I would hold off until you have been able to play the clubs a couple of times. If the ball is pushed to the right (assuming RH here), then you can always have a local clubmaker / repair shop perform the lie alteration.
