I bought one that's a 9.5-10.5 degree and I'd much prefer to hit 10.5 (would even prefer a 12 degree loft but impulse purchase locked me in). You just turn the Phillips screw to adjust it, right?
    Yep, should be a screw on the sole of the club. Loosen the screw, spin the shaft to 10.5 loft and tighten the screw. Did you get a wrench with the club? Using the wrench that comes with the club allows you to tighten until you hear the click. This insures you do not overtighten or undertighten the screw. If you did not get a wrench try a local golf club shop and pick one up.

      Anyone else here in a league?

        Awesome, thanks Gregg. Haven't received the club in the mail yet so not sure about the wrench. It's not just a standard phillips that you could do with a screwdriver?
        I think it might be a star style. I saw them new on ebay for $6.95. If you don't get one with your driver, just take it to a local golf shop and ask if they have one. I am pretty sure they will. Lastly you might ask the people in the Pro Shop where you golf if they have one for sale, or if they have one that you could use just to set your loft. You will still want to get a wrench as sometimes they loosen up.

            Played another nine holes yesterday and shot a disappointing 49 but I did drive the green on a par 4. Gotta take away the positives when you are as bad as I am.
            Anytime you are on the green in one is a good day.

              The golf gods ALWAYS give us golfers at least one great shot every round to keep us coming back!!

                fixed.
                It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

                      Oh, and apparently it wasn't even the adjustable face kind anyway, so no wrench. Damn impulse purchases!
                      This adjustable thing gives some options but it is really no big deal. The one you got will be miles better than the one you had. I hope you hit is straight and far.

                      What kind of sandwedge is it?

                          Is it Sand Master by RAM? Or by Slazenger Does it have a player's name on it? You might get $20-$50 bucks for it depending on some of the factors, maybe a few bucks on trade in.

                          Also what kind of putter is with your set?

                            Today is the sixth week of my golf league..I have played once due to weather and other commitments. Today it has rained all morning, but supposed to be rain-free (although not sunny at all) the rest of the day...so i should get to play tonight, but in crappy conditions.

                                I had a horrible round last week. Played the toughest of the four nine-hole courses and shot a 51..I am usually 43-45 on this course.

                                Drove the ball pretty good, but everything else was crap. I really need to practice.
