Notes
  • Loft Adjustments: When club loft is adjusted from standard, the bounce and offset are also affected as the head rotates relative to the hosel. For example, if the loft of a club is increased by 1° then the bounce will also increase by 1°, and vice versa. In addition, as club loft is increased through adjustment, the leading edge offset will be reduced slightly, and vice versa. A player will usually adjust loft to tweak their distances for gapping purposes, but they may also choose to adjust the standard loft of one club to a different standard loft simply to obtain that standard loft with a different bounce angle (common with wedges). Manufacturers typically only recommend adjusting the loft of a club by +/-2° max in order to retain strength and intended design.

  • Length Adjustments: Standard length refers to men's club length, as stated by the manufacturer. Manufacturers typically measure clubs using the procedure defined by the USGA.

  • Shaft Launch/Spin/Flex: Shaft characteristics should be taken with a grain of salt as there is no industry standard per se. While they may be comparable within one manufacturer, a mid spin in manufacturer A may be considered high (or low) in manufacturer B etc.
