  2. GC quad alignment

    If I only want to know the carry distance, do I need to use the alignment stick? How can I make sure the ball direction is good with the default Quad alignment? I ask because I think a 2" mis-alignment could be 3 to 4 degree offline. and it can change the spin direction too?
