Lie angle


Question
Michael, do lie angle and shaft length go hand in hand? I had a custom fitting for my current set of clubs and am playing shafts +0.5" with -1 degree lie and standard loft.  I was "on the bubble" in fitting for length and opted for the slightly longer shaft. I now seem to prefer the standard length demo clubs I am trying for my new set.  If I go with standard length, can I expect to have the same -1 degree lie angle on my next fitting (assuming the same swing plane, etc)?

Answer
Joe,

I am so glad that you went for a club fitting. It is so important to get a set of clubs that are fitted for you and your swing.

Every half inch of length is equal to 1 degree of lie. For example, if your clubs are a half inch longer than standard, and the lie is standard, then the effective lie is 1 degree upright. Conversely, minus a half inch in length, would have an effective lie of -1 degree. -1" in length would and standard lie, would have an effective lie of -2 degrees.

In your case the effective lie is standard because the +.5" and -1 degree lie cancel each other out. If you go to standard length then the lie will be standard as well.

Thanks for the question.

Michael
