At the end of the day the soles are still a bit cambered, but I have also noticed (using the magnet deal) that lie/face are very much connected through the bag. I have played some decent golf for a while with lies that were quite upright, but I kinda looked like Bernhard Langer at impact...right foot up on the toe and the left shoulder uber-high. My bad shot has always been a tug-boat willie left. But OB you have brought up a good point...again.

The only way I can figure out to keep my Homerized impact alignments with the lie as it is it to change the amoung of #3 Acc. angle, as opposed to setting up with "gorilla arms" the leading edge has to be parralel to the surface that the ball is on, right? So if I the ball is above my feet I increase my #3Acc angle and do my best to kept my hands FLV/BLV. I break out in a cold sweat when I cannot feel those alignments!

Even if you use the camber, flat is flat. The advantage of the cambered sole is the heel/toe is not likely to dig. I have always avoided blaming stuff on my equipment, I prefer to blame my squaw. I played 4 years of top flight golf with a sand wedge that said 56 degrees, but when a club fitter measured it turned out to be 53 degrees and 4 degrees too upright for me! I think that is what it was, it has been a while. I loved it because I hit it 125 yards and sometimes 135 yards...with a pull! What a stupid I am!

Do pros adjust the lies of the woods etc.? I guess if one the hosels snaps they can just get another...and another. I do not see anyone risking their new R9! I may need my hacksaw!
