If the alteration in the flight of the ball results predominantly from faulty clubface position or if it is a swing path fault.
You will be able to evaluate the flight of the ball as a result of swing path because the loft of the 9 Iron causes the ball to backspin, which negates the lateral spin caused by faulty clubface alignment.
