Posted April 18, 200916 yr Because twenty-nine years after TaylorMade introduced the "Original One," the OEMs (incl JDMs) still won't let you have it your way. My assertion is simply this: if you can't ask for the exact loft/face/lie angle combination that you want, the manufacturers of drivers and fairway metalwoods are simply not doing their job.

April 20, 200916 yr There are some that offer the service. Ping will choose the specs you want in their wrx program for a little extra. I used to order from a shop while back in the US. I would have the guy (who was also a clubmaker) measure true loft and face angle for me on the OEM drivers I would buy. He used to charged me $5 extra for that but it was well worth it.
