Hello to All,

I just purchased and was fit for a new set of Diablo Edge Irons. I got everything done I needed to in reference to the fitting process.

I was never fit with my MacTec's so this was a great experience for me. I found out that my correct lie was 2 degrees upright. My question is this. I have Cobra Baffler Hyrids 3/20, 4/23, 5/26, Callaway Diablo Edge 3-wood/5-wood, Cleveland Wedges 56 and 60 and Last but not lest Nike Str8 Dymo2 Driver. Should I have the Lie angle adjusted on these clubs as well?? I now know how important it is.

Thank You in Advance,

J Gray

The basic answer is no.  I play my irons +1" and 4 1/2* upright.  The woods +1" and driver 47.25" are all regular lie.  Most of these clubs, woods and drivers, cannot be lie adjusted.   I'd look into adjusting your wedges.  I have 4.5* upright on all my irons including 4-pw,uw,sw,lw.

I discussed this alot with a club maker before I had him custom make a 3,5 and 7 wood.  The only thing we ended up doing was adding an inch to the length of them, but this was not neccessarily for the lie angle, I'm tall.

lie angle for the driver, fairways, and hybrids is not critical and therefor not done.  you would have to have a really severe swing lie to need any adjustment.  the wedges, yes, IF they are not already okay for you.  here's a simple check- take a piece of plywood or similar material and place it on the ground at the same level as the bottom of your feet and hit it like you're playing a shot off it.  there should be a mark on the bottom of your wedge, if not put some paint/baby powder/ or something that will transfer to your club on it.  if the mark on the bottom of your wedge is centered you're okay. if not then an adjustment is needed.  the center of the mark should be in the center of the sole.

when you get your clubs back do this with all of them and see if they all are correct.

i have another way to check on my website- www.yourgolfshop.webs.com under "lofts and lies".

glad you got fitted!

The wedges you should be able to have done no problem. I don't really know about the woods and hybrids. I don't think they bend those, do they...?

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
