Why would you specifically relate to "these drawings" and not the chapter they are located in? Hey John, Resilience, Trajectory Control and Linear Force are all just some of the facts "baked into" those diagrams. Homer went out of his way to remind people that you have to cross -reference EVERYTHING!

For example, if you read 2-C-0 you'd see the the intentionality of the shot is "compress the ball through a particular point along a particular line..." Horizontal Hinging is intended to send the ball in a particular direction as is Layback. Lacking intentionality, the ball comes off the face of the club "practically right angles." Check 2-D-0/2-D-1, to see a larger set of factors all of which I wonder if you have considered in forming your remarks.

Homer was not an idiot or a fool (and it's fascinating to see you disrespect for him. Are you planning to sell something?) My stance on this site is that I'm learning and so I do not hold myself out as an expert. If I don't understand something, I make an observation and ask a question. But that is after reading the book and watching the videos and giving them the substantial credit they deserve. You seem to have no such restraint.

Yoda gave you some good advice.

A golf ball pays close attention to lots of factors at impact. There is a lesson there for all of us.

Yes, I'm sorry I missed that one. Please accept my apologies.





Thanks for your responses. The other 4 responses either had no questions in them, told me my question was invalid, told me to read the book more closely or I was told that one didn't have the desire to respond.


Regarding post #55, I wrote


At least a couple of these would be my fault and not an "or else" as been presumed.



As specifically related to these drawings, I can see that the ball is on a tee. Why would a person assume that this information would change with a ball on the ground? Is low point changing? What changes so that the ball isn't driven downward from where it is resting?



Seems strange to me that only during the impact interval does the path of the club have 100% influence on the direction of the ball(down and to the right) and yet at separation it chooses to leave the face practically at right angles. How can Homer have it both ways? While on the face, only path influences ball even though the face is rotating while the ball is on it and the ball's centerlined has moved relative to both the angle of approach and arc of approach as depicted in 2-C-1#3 and this has no effect. Then all of a sudden, the ball decides to stop listening to the path and come off the face at practically right angles.

Some smart ball.



I look forward to seeing your comments.
