Definitions:
- The length is the length of the club.
- The lie is the acute angle between the club shaft and the ground.
- The loft is the acute angle between the club face and the vertical. A greater loft is stronger than a lower loft because balls fly lower and farther when you hit them with stronger lofts.
- The offset is the distance between the front of the shaft and the front of the club face.
