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...?

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
