What stands out about the Original 1984 Metal Woods — Driver lie setup?
The available specification gives this model a 54° lie reference rather than a full progression.
On a driver, lie is a secondary tuning variable; face angle, face-to-path, strike and delivered loft usually dominate the shot.
Treat the head as fixed for lie unless Titleist documents an indexed adjustment system for the exact version.

Should the Titleist Original 1984 Metal Woods — Driver be more upright or flatter?
A more upright fit may help when…
- A fitter confirms the fixed head fits too flat dynamically
- Another factory build produces better centre contact
A flatter fit may help when…
- A fitter confirms the fixed head fits too upright dynamically
- Another factory build produces better centre contact
Do not change lie just because…
- You plan to bend a fixed wood / hybrid head
- You have no repeatable strike baseline
Why playing length changes the lie fit
This model is listed at 43 inches standard length. Playing length changes posture and hand height, so re-test lie after any length change.
Dynamic lie changes with delivery, shaft deflection, playing length and setup. For SureFit metals, use the Titleist chart for the exact category and handedness. For irons, wedges and putters, use a qualified fitter or putter technician before bending. Titleist SureFit guide.
