Custom Fitting - Loft Angle

Ball trajectory is the primary influence of loft. This is true in both woods and irons. The correct amount of loft will produce the optimum launch trajectory, spin rate with maximum carry and roll.

Wood loft is the angle created from the sole to the face, less 90 degrees at a point half up the face.		Iron loft is the angle measured from the center of the hosel to the plane of the face of the club soled level and the face square to the target line.

Loft may be the most misunderstood variable when fitting woods. Most people think that clubs with less loft always will hit the ball farther than clubs with more loft. If every golfer had 100 mph swing speeds and no compensating motions then that might be a true statement.
