01 / Why it matters
An incorrect lie angle points the effective face left or right at impact, especially in shorter, higher-lofted clubs.
Lie Angle
Lie angle is the angle between the shaft and the sole when the club is soled at address.
02 / Performance impact
A lie that is too upright tends to push shots left for a right-handed golfer; too flat tends to push them right. The effect grows with loft.
03 / Common misconception
Lie is not set by height alone — delivery and arm length matter more.
04 / How TruePath considers it
Lie is recommended per club from the golfer's measurements, reported miss pattern and delivery tendencies.
