The title has the question.
 
I'm pretty sure mine is in the -1 to -2 range. I'll have to find my numbers again
 
Not where it "should" be, I know that. I believe it's on the negative side.
 
Not a clue
 
Yep and working to improve it with irons and driver

Irons are only 1-2 degrees negative should be 4-6 add in a hands not in front of club at impact and you get increase LA and spin = poor trajectory and distance loss. 7i flies like a 9i

Driver is -.5 to -1 = increased LA and spin both resulting high ball flight and loss of distance.

Working on changes with instructor to fix both. Amazing what trackman will show you and give the feed back if the changes are working.

Add insult to injury path is too far inside to out 4-5 degrees.

Do not know mine.
 
Haven't seen it in a while with irons, but with the driver, it's anywhere from +1 to +4.
 
No though would like to know, I'm starting to dig my irons so I'm getting steep.

I'd love to have that AOA with driver the ball would go so much farther

Hope this isn't spoiling anything

Last time I remember seeing it was a year ago and it was around -4. It was something I tried to work on but for some reason whenever I was on flightscope at THP events I just looked at carry distance, spin and launch angle so I have no clue if it actually changed or is just mental.
 
When I got fit at Annika Academy I was at +6 (+/-1).
 
I typically am somewhere in the +2.5 to +5 range with a driver. I've always had to swing up off the tee because I've never had decent club head speed. I've never had it measured with irons.
 
No idea. This is why I need a Trackman fitting!

I think there's a niner some where in mine?
 
I do not know mine.
 
I do not and honestly not sure what it should be
 
In general, can't say really I'm so inconsistent on it. That and I've never really been given that info to my knowledge.
 
No I dont
 
I go between 4.8 and 5.2 on the plus side last time I was on a trackman.

+1 - +4 when I don't get through. Irons not sure.
 
Not sure but I know it was negative with the driver when I last measured it.
