Dave: Hey, don't call my long driver mentor "confused". :-) Bernie might be correct as I'm only going by the figures in the catalog. Actually they list the heights of all the fairway woods (3W-19W) as being 32mm and I can't swear to the accuracy of these figures as I don't have any of the heads here.
I've seen this before with face heights. Bernie, maybe you're correct with your theory of drawing the straight line from toe to heel. It sounds like a goofy way of measuring the height, but who knows?? By the way Bernie, I'm still in love with my 51" Bang offset 12� driver. I've been chuckling at all the long driver talk lately about how difficult they are to hit. I've never had a driver that's been so consistent in my life. By the way, glad to hear you're feeling better.
