    Lie Angles

    I am sure now that my lie angles on my Pings are a little off. The set needs to be adjusted 1* upright to blue dot specs. Where is the best, quickest, and reasonably priced place to get this done.

    I had mine done by Don at artisan golf, he did a great job and the price reasonable.

    I can bend them for you. How did you come to that conclusion?

    I got fitted. Was suggested to use a reg. flex shaft. I had rifle 4.5 installed to standard lengths which are normally 1/2 inch longer than ping. So, my red dot ping eye2+ now being 1/2 inch longer should play to a black dot. According to static measurement I fall between black and blue dot on the scale. I taped them and each club is very close to right in the middle but the marks were a little towards the toe, more so with the eight iron. I never faded my previous set and they had both reg. flex and stiff flex in them at one time or another.
    I'm nowhere near a club junkie, or even a novice clubmaker(I can change grips) but I do read...and everything is pointing to adjustment of lie angles.

    Also, I just can't get it through my head how 1 degree can make such a big difference but right now my game is so poor with iron play that I am willing to try anything.

    Is the 8 iron going right all the time?
