You can buy a measuring tool with a metal peg that holds the club’s sole in the proper position while you’re taking your measurement. If you don’t have a protractor, you can eyeball the angle in a pinch as long as you ensure the shaft is straight.

A tape measure works well too, but it might be a little tougher since it’s flimsier.
