Club Length
Club length for clubs other than putters will be limited to 48 inches. The measurement of length is made with the club set on a horizontal plane while the sole is set against a 60 degree plane (see attached illustration). The length is defined as the distance from the point of the intersection between the two planes to the end of the grip. Measurement protocol will be published in the near future.

Questions regarding the head size and club length limits should be addressed to the USGA, attention Dick Rugge, P.O. Box 708, Far Hills, NJ 07931, Fax 908-234-0138, e-mail: drugge@usga.org.
