Abstract
Described is a set of golf clubs having a unique hosel position and orientation. The hosel position, along with different weight distributions of the clubheads, creates swing energy from a rear of the golf clubhead, maintains a player's hands in a proper position throughout the hitting zone and facilitates straight ball flight. The hosel position near an upper portion of the clubhead near its heel keeps the hosel clear of a clubface thereby providing a unobstructed clubface thus reducing the occurrence of shanks.
