    2. VCOG C.F. = A reduction in MPF points when the iron’s actual vertical centerof gravity exceeds .840".

    3. MOI C.F. = Additional MPF points awarded to the actual MOI reading basedon the actual vertical center of gravity.

    ABBREVIATION KEY FOR HEADINGS

    BASIC VCOG = Basic Vertical Center Of Gravity

    MOI = Moment Of Inertia (measured in ounce/inches square)

    ACTUAL RCOG = Actual Rearward Center Of Gravity

    VCOG = Vertical Center Of Gravity Adjustment

    ACTUAL VCOG = Actual Vertical Center Of Gravity

    VCOG C.F. = Actual Vertical Center Of Gravity Correction Factor

    MOI C.F. = Moment Of Inertia Correction Factor

    MPF = Maltby Playability Factor

    NOTE: For an in-depth discussion and a complete understanding of MPF, ready Ralph Maltby’s book, “The Maltby Playability Factor For Irons”.
