    If you buy off the shelf can you then go back and get a custom fit? my shafts are ok but i think lie angle may be a bit off?

    Depends on the clubs man, if theyre not forged ya wont be able to bend them safely, what are the clubs

    Some clubs yes most pros will be able to check if the lie is ok and adjust them if possible.

    Most new clubs can be bent up to 2* no problem.

    Again as in the other thread the solution would be to get in contact with TaylorMade. Apperantly they know a good bit about golf clubs ;)

    Has nothing to do with whether theyre new or 20 yrs old dude, cast iron clubs being bent is very dodgy and most shops wont do it as they could snap. Soft forged iron no problem

    Are you noticing it with your longer irons or the whole set?
    I use r9's and mine are spot on as far as 6 but my 5 and 4 iron are a little toe up at address. My pro tells me that it is compensated during the swing the club goes a little toe down.

    Casting is after changing a good bit in recent times (materials,process etc.), bending them is not as big a deal as it used to be..! Although the TM Burners are difficult to bend (think it's because of the additional materials used in the head) TaylorMade themselves would bend them no problem.

    Vokey Wedges are cast, and they are bent every which way everyday of the week.
