All of mine swing heavy due to the added length, they come out at about D8. D2 or D3 is what is considered to be a standard swingweight. I experimented with longer & shorter clubs & found that the longer, heavier ones were much easier to keep on plane. You get to the top of the swing and they club seems to swing itself down. With the lighter clubs I couldn't keep the ball straight.
