I know that Wilson can provide clubs with different lies.  What is not clear is if the lie can be adjusted when needed by local fitters.  I could not find any information that confirms if Di11s can be bent 1 or 2 degrees using typical shop equipment given the wide-tip shaft and short hosel.  Do any of you know?

The Ci11's I have can be. I imagine the Di series can be as well. Theres nothing unusual about the '11 series wilson clubs. The fat shafts are gone. Its not like they are cast iron.

In the Ogio Kingpin bag:

Titleist 913 D2 9.5* w/ UST Mamiya ATTAS 3 80 w/ Harrison Shotmaker & Billy Bobs afternarket Hosel Adaptor (get this if you don't have it for your 913)
Wilson Staff Ci-11 4-GW (4I is out of the bag for a hybrid, PW and up were replaced by Edel Wedges)
TaylorMade RBZ 5 & 3 Fairway Woods

Cobra Baffler T-Rail 3 & 4 Hybrids

Edel Forged 48, 52, 56, 60, and 64* wedges (different wedges for different courses)

Wilson doesn't call it a fat shaft anymore but they still come with the "wide tip" shaft. Without anything to the contrary, I tend to agree with you regarding lie adjustment.

Maybe on the Di's, my Ci's use a regular shaft tip. I havent inpected the D series to be honest.

I think the Ci11s are different and have a standard shaft.  They are a beautiful looking club!

The wide-tip shaft on the Di11 was a little odd at first.  But after hitting the clubs for a half an hour in the cage, I stopped noticing it so much.  It's just another steel shaft.  The uniflex seems to fit my swing speed well.

It's not like I need new irons and my wife is already annoyed with my golf purchases, so I'm trying to figure out how I can justify a new set.  I could continue to use my existing GW (51*) and SW (56*) because the complement the Di11s.  I have extra clubs to sell to pay for this set.  I think I'm onto something!

I think I found the answer to my question.  I submitted a question to Wilson and they showed answers to similar questions that were previously asked.

From Wilson

" Due to the special nature and uniqueness of the Di7 irons with wide tip technology, we do not recommend that you adjust loft and lie in the field. If you would like your clubs to be adjusted, we would be happy to do so at our factory. Please call 1-800-Go-Wilson for more information or submit an e-mail through this "Ask Wilson" feature on our website. "

" YES, Wilson Fat Shaft Irons can be special ordered from an authorized Wilson dealer. The length can be adjusted up to plus or minus two inches. Visit our Dyna-Fit Dealer Locator web page, e-mail us at golfinfo@wilsonsports.com or call 1-800-GO-WILSON for more information. "  [Unfortunately, this answer is not clear as to whether local fitters can extend wide tip shafts.]

Bummer.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 4, 1/2/26.  Played 18 today;  didn't get a chance to warm up (had I known the range was closed, I'd have hit balls at home first).  Played okay, 92 with three balls in the water.  It was raining for more than half the round and I didn't quite appreciate before today just how much I benefit from roll on both drives and approach shots.  I did not adapt well to this change until about hole 15, which is something I have to figure out.

      Day 459 - 2026-01-02 Had two guys on GEARS Hybrid, so I hopped on afterward (I'm going to do this a lot more often now). So… I've signed myself up for another month of backswing work in two ways: A little more extension of the trail elbow (got into the upper 90s) Less pelvis turn (low 50s).

      Day 31 (2 Jan 26) - Usual Friday men’s group shootout - good day of shot making  as most shots were right on line to the target point.  Putter and green reads were solid with some great par saves and a really tricky birdie.
