Did you mean an out to in path?

Face 2* open

Club face angle to target 2* right

Distance hit: 206 yards

Ball starts about 6 yards right and finishes 20 yards right.

Example if path is 2* right.

Path 2*  (in-out)

Face 4* open

Club face angle to target 2* right

Distance hit: 203 yards

Ball starts about 6 yards right and finishes 30 yards right.

The above info was type incorrectly, the data below is right.

Example if path is 2* right.

Path 2*  (in-out)

Face 2* open

Club face angle to target 4* right

Distance hit: 203 yards

Ball starts about 12 yards right and finishes 30 yards right.

With a wind like that I would not make any major adjustments.  I am sure it was not directly in your face.  It will move the ball and the wind will exaggerate any spin you put on it.

I would have to agree with this statement, hitting balls into a head wind definately exagerates any and all slight problems in the swing. New clubs, New swing, keep working at it. The rewards are not far.

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By saevel25 · Posted

      JPX ONE Driver - Mizuno Golf Official Website Discover the JPX ONE Driver - /jpxone/jpxone-driver-hero-mobile.webp /jpxone/jpxone-logo-white-lg.svg The World’s first NANOALLOY™ DRIVER... Mizuno is introducing new technology with their JPX One fairway woods and drivers. The new tech for golf but used tech for Mizuno since it is found in their baseball side of the business, is Nanoalloy. Nanoalloy is a microscopic polymer layer put on the face of their titanium driver. What this layer does is change the elasticity of the driver face and increases ball speed over a larger area of the clubface. Adding a bit more elasticity with this layer, they are conserving the golf balls energy from the impact.  Due to USGA rules, this technology falls under their coating regulations. Which add a correction factor to the ball speed testing done for conforming golf clubs. This rule was introduced when Taylormade went to their carbon clubface. Which I didn't know existed.  I am sure that center strikes are at the USGA limits like all other drivers. This has my interest. I am always, "window shopping", for new golf equipment 😉
