I've started to experiment with hitting and so far I'm liking the results. I've heard that some players will swing with the longer clubs and hit with the shorter ones (and I can see why). I've been so intrigued with hitting of late that my last few range sessions have been primarily focused on that. While on some mats last night and "hitting" wedges and 7-irons, I noticed the mat residue on my irons favored the heel of the sole. I've been playing 1 degree flat Ping S59's for 5 months (and was purely swinging when fitted). Is there any correlation to lie angles depending on hitting or swinging? If so is the difference significant enough to be concerned about?
Thanks for the input. I think that when I first posed the question, I wasn't clear enought with the issue...I'll try to be clearer now. When I try to set up with the TGM right forearm and clubshaft in line I have a hard time doing that with a 2* flat ping iron without really bending forward...with a more upright club it is much easier to accomplish this. Am I missing the boat in terms of what to do at setup???
As Hunter said, the clubs should be fit to the golfer, not the other way arround. Have your lie angles adjusted for impact conditions, not address.
If they need to be adjusted, take them back to where you bought them to see if they can adjust them on site. If not, send them back to Ping. Ping Inc. does not want people playing with clubs that don't fit them. The charge is minimal to have the lie angles altered.
