What is Lie Angle?? Why Golf Lie Angle Matters | Trackman Test

- In any golf club fitting, 2nd Swing fitters will discuss golf lie angle with golfers, and why the lie angle matters. Not every golfer understands the basics behind lie angle and how it can impact shot tendencies. Nonetheless, golf lie angle is a critical component of a club fitting to ensure golfers of all skill levels are dialed in.
In this video, 2nd Swing's Drew Mahowald and Cameron Fitzer conduct a Trackman Test to showcase and explain golf lie angle and why it matters to golfers.

Was told for years due to lie board that I should be 1-2 upright. Had pull hooks for years. Finally hit a club at 1 flat and it totally changed my game.
Progressive lie angles should be explored too. My T100 irons: I play my 4-5 iron at 61.5, 6-8 iron at 62, 9-PW at 62.5, and 50,54,60 at 62. So standardish in long irons, 1 degree flat in middle irons, 1.5 flat in short irons, 2 degrees flat in wedges. Helps me consistently hit a 3 yard draw through my set. Start line, shot shape, toe droop with longer irons need to be considered. I bucked up and bought a MR3 Golf loft lie machine a couple years ago so I could experiment.
I recently got fit at the Columbia 2nd Swing. My Mizunos that I came in with weren't fitted when I bought them and they were at -1. My Fitter determined that I needed to be a +2 so I had been playing 3 degrees off. I would get a lot of toe strikes and would have a real hard time getting the draw. This video really helped that make more sense to me.
Thanks Great review of the lie angle and how it effect a shot...Very important for perfection.....
Y’all’s videos are always great! Fantastic
Makes so much sense, i got fit into 2 degrees flat and I’ve been fight a fade ever since
Thanks for the video. At my last fitting, my irons were all adjusted to 2 degrees flat. However, the fitter never explained why that would help. SInce I seem to hit an equal number of shots left, center and right, I didn't understand what this was supposed to do.
Nice review and I wish OEM’s would get away from using the term “standard” loft/lie (as you pointed out, there’s no such thing). Also wish OEM’s would stop with the 1/2 degree increments as 99.99% of golfers can’t tell the difference (only Tour pro’s are that attuned to their swings and ball flights).
Great video! unfortunately data did not show dynamic lie with each setting. As a fitter I see a lot of golfers confused thinking that the right thing is to get a dynamic lie of 0.0 which in my experience is not as long as you get your desired ball flight and trayectoy and obviously within a reasonable dynamic lie window (e.g. + - 4º). In my personal case my dynamic lie is approx 3º down (flat) with a nice high draw ball flight. If I set my irons 3 degrees upright to compensate and get a neutral dynamic lie then I can only hit left of target. What's your take about this? Thanks
Brilliant video once again Drew !!!
Awesome video and topic! Do you think lie angle affects distance (more so in drivers)?
This was great!
Thanks for watching!
I play Ping (Red Dots, 1' flat) and I never ever spray the ball out to the right the way your dispersion chart suggests! I hit consistent draws week in week out so I'm not so sure I agree with what I'm seeing here.
It's not all about lie angle, it's also angle of attack, and I'd say you have a shallow angle of attack if you hit draws with a flat lie angle, and also an in to out club path.
I think a better video would be to use a couple golfers where one fits into 3 up and other 3 flat from "standard". Most videos on the subject always seem to use a golfer where standard lie is best.
Should all of your irons have the same lie angle (my case 2 up)?
What’s the rule of thumb for how much to change for your miss. For example, on my Mevo, I miss all my 100 yard and in full wedges about 5 yards left. I’m guessing maybe 1 degree flatter would help, but maybe I’d be better off weakening my grip or just aiming 5 yards right of target?
Check the video at 1:05.
@@maplesirup24 Thanks! I was listening without watching closely for the first few minutes so I missed that they snuck in that chart!?
Trackman needs change how they show dynamic lie. They should have a feature like Foresight when it shows how much toe down or up the club is at impact.
Lie angle is the cheat code of golf and golf fitting
Good info👍
Thanks for watching!!
Oh my! Let me get this straight;
“Standard”, or a lie angle of 62.5° for this club, has the center of the club face touching the ground with the toe and heal slightly elevated. Great! Good! Got it!
“FLAT” means the toe of the club face is touching the ground and the heal is more up in the air which makes the shaft is more UPRIGHT, but the the lie angle is LOWER (59.5°) than standard.
“UPRIGHT” means the heal of the club face is touching the ground and the toe is more up in the air which makes the shaft FLATTER to the ground, but the lie angle is HIGHER (65.5°) than standard.
And you wonder why golf drives people crazy! 🤡 🌎
