Oh yeah, I forgot to post! I am pretty much standard. He taped up my club and had me hit off a lie board after measuring the distance from the ground to my knuckles. I thought I was going to need to have my clubs bent to a flatter lie, but he said I was standard and if anything, I would need to go 1º upright if I was going to go anywhere. I was striking the board right in the middle of the club sole and I was hitting a little towards the toe end of center, but that was due to my inexperience as I have only been playing golf for 9 or 10 months now.
I don't know if you have ever hit off a lie board before, but don't let it mess with ya, those things are awesome! I would hit off of it with every shot if I could. He told me to swing like normal and don't worry about taking a divot. There really was not too much to it although he has been working with me since I started golfing, so he didn't have to measure swing speed as he knew I needed stiff flex shafts. I guess I am about as normal as it gets in my irons which makes buying them easy.
