-So, let's say we take this driver for you and it's a 10-1/2 degree driver. -Right. -And you're hitting it, let's say for you night be hitting it too high -Right -Where you can adjust that down to 9. When you do that, what happens, the face is now open or maybe you want a club face that's open. -Right. That's why have a the second adjustment and I think what's really cool was all of that is as you go and as you're developing as a player and making changes with coach, you now can have a golf club that can really almost encourage that process. -Right, exactly, and that's a good point because what happens in teaching, you know, you started to help somebody and also of a sudden, they need a little different club, and let's face it, I mean, they are not tee. So, with every time you make a little adjustment in your swing and every time you try to get better and all of a sudden you need a new club to fit up with your swing, you know, it's really not feasible. So, what most people do is they adjust. They adjust their swing and rather than adjusting on your equipment, you start to compensation with you swing and you've-- we've seen this for years, you know, on the tour. What would happen is, you know, all the techs that are out there on the tour. They build some drivers for the pros and they take it out there and they have them tried, and the pro will hit 1 or 2 shots and all of a sudden he didn't like they way ball flew and that's it, they just ended back to when they go. Well, now, all that means is we just have to make little adjustment. -Right. -And we can just make a fine tuning adjustments. So, it's great for the consumer because they are not, you know, stuck with just this club they just bought that all of a sudden don't fit them because we can find tuning in many different ways to make them work for you. -To put it really hit-- to put it in the numbers. The little fine tune adjustments are capable of changing launch angle by 3 degrees, spin rate by 1200 rpm, left to right bias that club. Think about this has enough left to right bias if you maximize the setting -Right. -to change the ball flight 140 yards. -Wow.
