Term most commonly applied to iron sets, it means that the amount of offset changes from club to club throughout the set. The offset decreases from the 3-iron to the 4-iron, from the 4-iron to the 5-iron, and so on.

Iron head design feature in which longer irons have more offset and shorter irons have less. The offset progresses in somewhat uniform increments through the set. More offset is featured in long irons as offset tends to eliminate slicing and helps to get the ball airborne, qualities that help most players hit the ball straighter.
