Loft & Lie checks - a MUST

[Thierry]

Been scratching the old noggin a bit recently at some of the odd distance gaps in my set so I took them to a club fitter for a loft & lie check...

It turns out my already "strong" TM's have been on the protein shakes!!! One of my mid irons was 3 degrees out(!!) and none of them was what the OEM says they should be, in fact the comment was "even for TM's these might be a little strong!!!!!!"

The clubs are only actually 3 months old(!!) but I didn't check the lofts when I bought them, just took them out of the box, had the lie adjusted and chucked them in the bag!!! The moral of the tale - don't believe the number on the box, have a fitter check the lofts when you buy clubs and get them checked at least once a year after that I guess?!?! Lesson learned!!!!!

makes you wonder why you buy from OEM's if that's what you end up with?

Did TM do the lie adjustment or a third party - i.e. is this a TM screw up / quality issue or is there a potential third party?

My miss tends to be left with my irons so I have them all 1 deg flat because I tend to be toe up at impact, the lies are all ok, as were the short irons, it was the lofts on the mid-irons that were out - as Midnight just said to me on the phone "I told you to get your lofts custom fit you knob!!!" (He had the same issue with a set of Callaways but I didn't believe him!!!)

Not sure you will have to get cast irons checked as often as once a year, they are pretty hard.
