Acer XF HT Iron - Clubhead
SKU
I3308
What is the sole width of this iron (Acer HF XT iron). Is this iron suitable with mid trajectory regular flex graphite shafts or will I lose distance with this iron head and the XDS will be more suitable. I am a senior with some arthritis in hands and shoulders. My 7 iron distance with lightweight steel shafts I am using now is 150 yards. I am considering changing to mid trajectory filament wound graphite shafted clubs with no more than 3.5 degrees of torque. I normally hit my irons with a mid trajectory, but would like a slightly higher trajectory.

Randy,
The sole width of the Acer XF HT #5 iron is 24mm. If you are looking at a higher trajectory, then you will get that with the Acer XF HT over the Acer XDS React with the same shaft, flex and length.

How do you determine lie adjustment required? Is it a true angle adj. or is it an offset adjustment?
If one makes a 1 degree adjustment what is the effect at the grip end of the shaft?
And or the loft?

Ronald,
You really need to have hit the exact head, shaft, flex and length combination ahead of time and watch ball flight or hit off of a lie board to determine if you need the lie adjusted at all. If the ball flight is straight, I wouldn't touch the lie. But if you are pulling the ball consistently, then a flatter lie is in order and conversely, a consist push would probably indicate a more upright lie angle.
You actually control the butt end when you address the club. Lie may influence how high or low you do, but that is not always the case.
If lie is bend properly, then there is no change to the loft or offset.
