Effects of Incorrect Lie Angle
Aside from the standard wisedom of a lie angle which is too flat tending to produce an open face and one which is too upright tending to produce a closed face what common compensations do people tend to have if their lie angle doesn't fit them?

I recently re-checked my lie angles and impact location and found that my impact was consistenly slightly towards the toe in exactly the same spot. If I adjusted for a true 'center' impact, a push/push fade resulted. Sure enough, my lie angles were 2-3 degrees off once I checked on a lie board. Length of club made no difference in my case, always the same impact location.

Getting a proper lie angle and shaft makes a big difference in being able to "make the motion and let the motion make the shot".
