The TaylorMade R360 XD Driver uses a 58.5° lie-angle reference. This head is best treated as a fixed-lie design unless its exact hosel is documented as adjustable. On a driver, lie is a secondary directional variable behind face angle, face-to-path, strike and delivered loft.

What stands out about the R360 XD Driver lie setup?
Treat lie as fine tuning, not as the primary fix for a hook or slice.

Should the TaylorMade R360 XD Driver be more upright or flatter?
A more upright setting may help if…
- Your centred drives consistently launch or start right of your intended line.
- The toe sits noticeably down when you address the ball naturally.
- With a fixed hosel, use fitting or a different head/build rather than trying to bend the driver.
- The change improves direction without pushing strike toward the heel.
A flatter setting may help if…
- Your centred drives consistently start left despite a controlled face angle.
- The head looks too upright when you sole it with your normal hand height.
- With a fixed hosel, compare a different head/build rather than bending the driver.
- The flatter test improves start direction while retaining useful launch and contact.
Do not use lie angle to fix…
- A slice caused by an open face or out-to-in path.
- A hook caused by a closed face or excessive in-to-out path.
- Heel/toe strikes caused mainly by standing too close or too far from the ball.
- Launch and spin problems better solved with loft, shaft or strike location.
Verify the exact TaylorMade specifications before relying on these numbers
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.
