Which verification step is most critical after adjusting lie angle?

• A. Shaft Length Calibration
• B. Grip Size Verification
• C. Clubface Alignment Relative to Target Line
• D. Shaft Material Inspection

Answer: (C)

When lie angle is adjusted, the most important thing to verify is that the clubface is aligned square to the target line. The lie angle affects how the sole and face tilt at address, but the ball’s starting direction is determined by the face’s orientation relative to the target. If the face isn’t square to the target after the adjustment, you’ll see misdirection or inconsistent starts regardless of the lie angle being correct. Verifying the face alignment ensures your intended aim is actually at the target. Shaft length, grip size, and shaft material matter for fit and feel, but they don’t directly dictate the immediate direction of the shot like face-to-target alignment does.
