If a player best fits into an offset iron head design, which assumption is most appropriate?

• A. They Need Closed-Face Angled Woods and Hybrids
• B. They Have Very High Swing Speeds
• C. They Prefer Lighter Shafts
• D. They Want a Smaller Grip

Answer: (A)

Offset iron heads position the hosel slightly behind the leading edge, which helps the clubface stay square longer through impact and reduces a slicing tendency. Because of that, a player who fits offset irons often benefits from woods and hybrids that also encourage a closed-face or draw bias, to carry the same correction into the longer clubs. So the most appropriate assumption is that they would benefit from closed-face woods and hybrids to support a straighter or draw-biased flight. The other factors—swing speed, shaft weight, or grip size—don’t directly relate to the offset design in the same way and aren’t implied by this fit.
