No I have never heard such a thing...elsewhere! Is it accurate to say that the tendency is to "fit" a player based on accomodating his current tendencies...good or bad? OK I know I am obsessing on the lie angle deal...but what plane do you fit a player to? To me the lie of your club has more to do with the preselectd plane, correct?

So, does a clubfitter (with adequate golf stroke expertise...a rare gnome it would seem!) say "I think your will get best results if your sweetspot comes into impact on the elbow plane...this is the flattest of the acceptable planes by the way...so we are going to alter your lie angle 2 degrees flat to make that possible. Now remember that we have fit you for a flattish plane, so don't go doing a Scott Hoch improv out there, ya hear!"

I'm gonna buy me a cheap knock off set and go to bending...just not the plane line! 3rd cup of Turkish coffee talking!

PS Congrats to you and Mr. Asbell on the dubya!
