Here is a description of what spine alignment is and how we position the shaft.

A spine can be visualized as a longitudinal line or plane on a golf shaft that is more resistant to bending than any other line or plane. By locating the spine it can be placed in a predetermined position. Every clubmaker has their own preferred positioning, we use 9 o'clock. The goal is to facilitate repeatability via a stable plane.

Please let me know if you have any other questions,

Thanks,
Jeff
