I agree that clubhead COG lines up with the shaft at low point (not at impact unless ball is at low point)... but what are the implications with alignment and ball position of having drivers with clubhead COG more rearward than ever before??

Sorry Bulldog I meant that during impact interval it was aligning. Agree at low point its aligned.

I guess we have to trust the R&D guys who design these clubs to have tested them to ensure that we dont get the drivers too hook faced as a result of moving the COG back. Remember though that they are designing clubs for the masses, people who have swing faults. Mainly slicers and people who cant get the ball in the air so if theres more hook face then thats even better for them.

This is why Todd and co at BSG are making such a good living selling us tour spec clubs, with open faces and low spin rates at very high prices.

So whats the impact on ball position and alignment? Nothing I guess unless you start hitting your drives left and your swing is fine.

Otherwise buy a new one or experiment.

Mucked about with an offset, closed face cobra driver at the weekend and could hit it straightish by playing it further back and teeing it higher (making sure to still go OUT as well as down and forward to low point) ?
