Use a lower-lofted forgiving head to close the face
The instructor explains why they wanted a lower-lofted but forgiving driver head (an eight-degree). A lower loft lets a fitter close the face to help a player hit it straighter without adding too much loft in the process, while the head still gives them a chance to take advantage of the adjustability and hit it far.
