5wood head sits closed at address. How do i fix this?

[bunta]

So im in love with this 5 wood but the head sits closed to my eye. Is this usually a manufacturing defect of the head/hosel itself, or was the shaft installed wrong ?

 

What are my options to fix this ?? Pull the shaft and reinstall ?? What else ..?

Need a picture(s) and description of what kind of head.  If you hit it good and in love with it, what could be the problem?  You hit it too good?

I only have stock pics. It was a demo club. Its a Tour Edge C524 5 Wood 19*. I LOVE the headshape and the way it sits flush.

 

I hit it very well, but i had to tweak my setup because of the closed face. I dont want to have to do that hence why i asked if there is something that can be done. The closed face is "worrisome" when looking down.

Looks pretty normal to me but maybe the pic doesn’t do it justice. You can grip the club with the face pointing whatever direction you like so I’m not sure I under the question.

My suggestion is to get a grip with the reminder down the back and put it on so the club sits squarer at address.

It's the way the club is made.  It may look closed, but the face is actually square.  You are going to have to deal with it or find something else to hit.  Don't think there is anything you can do to change it.  I'm sure someone is going to tell you to have it bent, but unless you have access to the special tools you only find in a Tour Van, that isn't going to be a realistic choice.

How about a little lump of lead tape on the heel side of the sole so when you set it down it opens up? Not an ideal fix, but could work, and is easy to try.
