Posted May 16, 200717 yr comment_134610 I went to the Fourteen website and I saw in the FAQ section: Are loft and lie adjustments available? Adjustments are possible on TB-1000 FORGED irons only, up to 1°, and should be handled only by Fourteen or authorized dealers. I'm 5'6" and am looking to order a set of TC-770 forged. Is the lie on the TC-770 forged bendable? any help is much appreciated.
May 16, 200717 yr comment_134621 yes, i got mine adjusted the lie, there is no problem with it. How much did you adjust and was there any defect in the finish? I was told by the Fourteen Rep that there may be a "shrinkage" in the finish but tour player get ajusted without any problems they just don't do it inhouse since it may mar the finish. I need 3-4 degree ajustment depending on weather I will cut it 1/2 inch.

No one is going to recommend that you bend a any iron by 4 degree which is probably the outer limit. one or 2 would not affect the bounce too much but 4? Is the Fourteen standard lies?
May 17, 200717 yr comment_134681 The only company that would do four would be one that does custom at the factory such as Epon. I know Idrive's wedges as well as mine are both 4 degrees flat. I'm sure you could bend them at least 2 degrees no problem since they are forged. Yes, you may get a little damage to the finish, but they're golf clubs right? They strike hard balls off of turf, they're going to get wear. I just had my TourStages bent two degrees flat and no noticable difference I can see in the finish. The only thing I would suggest would be to contact the company to see if you could possibly get a special order for 4 degrees flat, paying for the customization of course. Might be the only way to get what you want.
May 19, 200717 yr Author comment_134780 has anyone ever hit a fourteen wedge, either the V3, V2, or the JSPEC? If you have, how does it feel? how does it compare to the Epon technity's or the x's.

Technity and Epon wedges are 1020 and forged at Endo. The entire fourteen wedge line up is cast. Its pretty easy to say the Epons feel far better.
