But since we're on the subject, I have Taylormade irons and M2 driver, but not acquired together. The irons were free from a travel miles points redemption. The driver my kids gave me as a Christmas gift a few years ago. I would like to do a custom fit as well. The clubs I have now are ample, but feel I could do better. The Taylormade irons are the Speedblade high launch, and it shows. I hit towering shots. Even the 4 iron gets up and I don't particularly like it. I'm sacrificing distance for height. With the set of NIke clubs I had previously, which were stolen, I was getting up to a club length more distance for each iron. I miss those clubs.

Right now I'm struggling on a down cycle with my driver. Every so often my driver swing goes sideways and I have to figure out why...again. Rinse, repeat.

Why would you steal Nike clubs? Couldn't you find something better? j/k

You must have a very high swing speed if you are towering a 4-iron. People usually CRAVE height on longer irons. Personally, I took the 4-iron out of the bag and use more hybrids. The game is already hard enough.

Those Nike clubs were awesome. Someone recently let me swing one of their Wilson Staff D9 irons and I really liked it. 

The reason I get so much height is because the club heads are bent for an extra degree of loft, or the kick point on the shafts is situated low. Thus the High Launch moniker.  
When the 4 iron comes out, it's because I'm going for distance. Getting it up high robs that length, especially if there's much wind. With these clubs my 7 iron goes 150. I could hit that with the 8 iron using the Nikes.
