Driver weight: forward lowers spin, back adds forgiveness

In an adjustable driver head, moving the heavier weight to the forward position pulls the center of gravity forward and brings spin down, while moving the heavy weight to the back pushes CG rearward and raises forgiveness (and spin). Use a heavy-weight-forward setting to knock spin down, and heavy-weight-back to add forgiveness. Explained by a fitter working through a movable-weight driver head.
