Why is there no lie angle adjustment option on the order page for the Power Play Caiman irons? Seems odd that the most expensive iron in your line would be so restricitive in its ability to be fit to the individual golfer ordering it.

There are pros and cons whenever designing different from the norm. The multi-material irons often have to go through different heat treating methods to avoid the discoloration on the face from welding the two dissimilar metals together. In doing so, this limits the ability to bend the hosel for lie. I have bent the Caiman iron for lie, but it requires far more effort to bend 1 degree than does to bend any of our standard 431 stainless irons 2 degrees. So much in fact we decided not to make that a custom option on this particular model.

So Caiman Irons have a different material make up than others and is the reason for its non bendability or just custom angle.?

The hosel is still the same 431 stainless steel material as the rest of the irons, so it comes down to the heat treating as the reason why they are extremely difficult to bend.
