Required reading for golfing neophytes and all duped lemmings! I proved this with pvc pipe and golf balls! Place the ball in the pvc pipe and time (if you can) a straight away release. Of course there is no hook face to divert, it is amazing how often able bodied teens leave the ball in the pipe! We start from top!
Most people think that the only hooked faces are on their super-duper anti-slice drivers! Square is NOT square folks!
Im still not all the way there on this one. Assuming the golf ball is struck back of low point with say a baseball bat, it will go right. The golf club is therefore manufactured with a built in amount of shaft lean and an appropriate amount of bounce given its shaft lean and a square to the target face? Is this right? Is this what is meant by hook faced short irons?
I contacted Mizuno about "hook faced" irons question:
My question:
I own MP32 irons.
Is it true that irons are designed "hook faced" in that when properly soled, the shaft leans forward toward the target? If so, can you describe the reasoning why (I'm assuming it has to do with the golf club operating on an inclined plane) and what the hook angle specs are. Thanks
The response:
Thank you for contacting Mizuno USA. The MP 32 irons are designed as a neutral blade model and do not favor a hook or fade setup. This club will be one of the most workable options that we have available. Thanks again for your time and interest.
