What stands out about the GT280 Mini Driver lie setup?
The available specification gives this model a 56° 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.
Use the Titleist SureFit hosel rather than bending the head. This category uses 0.75° loft / lie increments.

Titleist SureFit lie-angle testing for the GT280 Mini Driver
Begin at A•1 for right-handed or D•4 for left-handed and establish a strike / launch baseline.
Titleist specifies 0.75° loft / lie increments for this club category.
Use left / right movement in the Titleist chart to fine-tune direction after trajectory is stable.
Compare centre strike, start line and curvature across several solid shots before keeping the setting.
Should the Titleist GT280 Mini Driver be more upright or flatter?
Test more upright when…
- Supported upright setting improves centre contact
- Start line improves without hurting trajectory
Test flatter when…
- Supported flatter setting improves centre contact
- Start line improves without hurting launch
Do not change lie just because…
- You skipped the standard baseline
- You are using a SureFit chart from the wrong category / handedness
Why playing length changes the lie fit
This model is listed at 43.5 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.
