Posted February 14, 200718 yr Ok I need to get these equations right. on the face progression is the higher number the less offset or the lower the less offset. For instance is 3.5 fp less offset then 2.5 or the other way around. Thanks I can pick the right irons until I get this again I used to have it but now im mixed up. Thanks
February 14, 200718 yr the lower the # the lower the offset/face progression? Edited February 15, 200718 yr by idrive
February 14, 200718 yr I believe it's the Higher number of "Face Progression" the Less "Offset" there is. If I'm not mistaken, Face Progression is measured from the center of the hosel to the leading edge. Bat
February 14, 200718 yr The measurement is from the center of the shaft to the leading edge of the blade. so the larger the FP number the less the offset...the lower the number the larger the offset. uncleKent
February 15, 200718 yr Author Thank you I needed that I was deciding to get new irons I used to know it but its been so long since i went the japan route it got me mixed up. Now time to look at specs on the epon type S and the new 14 770 forged.
February 17, 200718 yr Given that shafts/hosels are standard sizes for a specific model, you can actually convert between the two. For example, pull down the TaylorMade R7 face progression specs from TM Japan and the offset specs from TM North America. If I recall correctly, offset (mm) = 6mm - face progression (mm). So yes, as the face progression goes up, the offset goes down. Cheers, matt
