as has been said, the Offset moves the clubhead COG further back from the shaft, resulting in greater forward deflection of the shaft at impact, higher trajectory. the effect is far greater in woods than irons. you can debate what other changes in ball flight an increase in forward deflection may induce. maybe the golfer feels the head getting to the ball sooner and rolls their hands earlier than they otherwise would... I dunno
It also gives you a little more time to square the face. Anyone who says offset makes them draw the ball didn't want to relearn either their aiming point or there ball position.
i can hit my low offset CB or my buddies Ping Eye 2 both dead straight. Just have to adjust for the offset.

It is also the 'hook face' that allows for a straight shot given an impact that is 'up plane' from low point, while still keeping the flying wedges in their alignments.
Offset basically forces you to hit it farther up the plane (or to compensate with a less supportive grip/PP alignment and/or ball position/aiming point).
So would that imply then, that there is an 'ideal' amount of offset for a given ball position and aiming point?
