PXG drivers do come with a tool called a torque wrench. This tool is specifically designed to adjust the loft and lie angles of the driver. It is an essential accessory that allows golfers to customize the performance of their PXG driver to suit their specific swing characteristics and playing conditions.
To begin using the torque wrench, you need to remove the silicon tip that comes pre-installed on the wrench. The silicon tip is designed to protect the screw heads on the driver, but it needs to be removed before you can properly use the wrench to make loft and lie adjustments.
Removing the silicon tip is a simple process. First, locate the end of the torque wrench where the silicon tip is attached. You’ll notice a small opening or groove where the tip is inserted. Using your fingers or a small tool, gently push and twist the silicon tip counterclockwise to unscrew it from the wrench. Be careful not to use excessive force, as you don’t want to damage the tip or the wrench.
Once the silicon tip is removed, you can now use the torque wrench to adjust the loft and lie angles of your PXG driver. The wrench will have markings or indicators that correspond to different loft and lie angles. These markings may be in the form of numbers or letters, depending on the specific model of the PXG driver you own.
To make adjustments, align the desired loft or lie angle indicator on the wrench with the corresponding setting on the driver’s hosel. Insert the torque wrench into the screw head on the hosel and turn it clockwise to tighten or counterclockwise to loosen. It’s important to use the torque wrench to ensure consistent and precise adjustments, as over or under tightening can affect the performance of the driver.
Once you’ve made the necessary adjustments, you can reattach the silicon tip to the torque wrench for added protection of the screw heads when not in use. Simply align the tip with the opening on the wrench and twist it clockwise until it is securely fastened.
Having a torque wrench with your PXG driver provides you with the flexibility to fine-tune the loft and lie angles to optimize your launch conditions and shot shape. It allows you to customize your driver’s performance to match your swing and course conditions, ultimately improving your overall performance on the golf course.
I personally have found the torque wrench to be a valuable tool in my golf bag. Being able to make precise adjustments to the loft and lie angles of my PXG driver has helped me dial in my desired ball flight and maximize distance off the tee. It’s a simple yet effective tool that adds an extra level of customization to my equipment, and I highly recommend utilizing it if you own a PXG driver.
