Degree of Clubs - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

How do you determine the degree of your clubs? I bought my clubs as a set, so it has a driver, 3W, 4-5 hybrid, 6-PW. And I just purchased a 60* LW. But my driver says 14* and none of my other clubs say what degree they are. I was just curious.

Sorry, I'm new to this, but the degree of the club is the loft on the ball?

TIA!

You can usually check the company website and under specs, it will have them. The degree is the loft of each club. Think of degrees as the face angle in simplified terms.

There isnt really a set degree that each club is. For example, some PWs are 45* and some others are 47*.
Also, GI irons typically have a softer loft than do player's irons.

Really? I think it is more the opposite lately. Look at Burners and others. They are all strong lofted to get amateurs more distance.

Sorry, I meant stronger, not softer. Not even sure what a "softer" loft would be.

I found this site: http://www.pinkribbonshop.com/pink-ribbon-hope-lx-ladies-golf-clubs-wilson-09-plum.aspx.

It only mentions that the hybrids are 21° and 25°, if these are the same clubs you have. Haven't found anything else.

When I'm playing well, my clubs have a masters or PHD degree. When I'm playing poorly they're high school dropouts, or at best have their GED.
