Adjusting the angle of a golf club’s head, specifically on the driver, influences launch angle and spin rate, impacting trajectory and distance. This adjustment can be achieved through adjustable hosels or by a professional club fitter.
Optimizing this angle allows golfers to maximize distance and accuracy by matching their swing to the club’s characteristics. A properly fitted club can improve ball flight, leading to greater consistency and lower scores. The ability to readily alter this angle has become increasingly prevalent in modern golf equipment, offering players a degree of customization not previously available.
