The TaylorMade Qi4D Fairway Wood lie-angle setup spans 58°–59°. The progression runs from 3W at 58° to 9W at 59°. Some heads in this family use an adjustable loft sleeve while others are fixed, so fit the exact loft/head rather than assuming one hosel setup applies across the range.

Qi4D Fairway Wood lie-angle fingerprint
What stands out about the Qi4D Fairway Wood lie setup?
The listed lie values span 1° across the model.
Every meaningful lie step is 0.5°, giving the progression a very regular shape.
There are 2 repeated lie values where adjacent options share the same angle.
Lie is most useful here for centre contact, address fit and repeatable sole interaction.
Use only the TaylorMade sleeve positions documented for the adjustable heads in this family; fixed heads should be treated at their published lie.

Dynamic hosel test for the TaylorMade Qi4D Fairway Wood
Start from the stock / neutral sleeve position and record strike, launch and start direction.
Move one supported setting at a time so loft, face angle and lie changes are easy to compare.
Keep the setting only if centre contact and start direction improve together.
Should the TaylorMade Qi4D Fairway Wood be more upright or flatter?
A more upright fit may suit you if…
- Centred strikes tend to start right of target.
- The toe sits noticeably down at address or impact with your normal posture.
- You feel you must stand unusually close or raise your hands to make the club sit naturally.
- Compare the neutral setting with the more upright-supported sleeve position and keep it only if strike and start line both improve.
A flatter fit may suit you if…
- Centred strikes tend to start left of target.
- The heel appears too low or catches the turf first.
- You naturally deliver the club with lower hands and the head looks too upright.
- Use the flatter-supported sleeve position if it reduces a persistent left start without hurting centre contact or launch.
Look elsewhere first if…
- Your main miss is a hook or slice caused by face-to-path.
- Strike location changes substantially across the face.
- Launch or spin is the main issue rather than start direction.
- You have not tested the club at your normal playing length and posture.
Golf-club specifications can differ by model year, loft, region, custom build and adjustable-hosel setting. Before buying, fitting or changing a club, compare these figures with TaylorMade’s official specifications for your exact model. If a measurement is critical, have the club checked by a qualified fitter. Verify with TaylorMade.
