After understanding the "Circle", we apply tools such as Hook-Face to accommodate Ball Location Changes. Hook Face is another subject. It dramatically changes Alignment and the way the Clubface closes. We should explore this along with Plane Angles and Ball Location. These are changes that accommodate Ball placement changes on the Circle.
Great post . Lets discuss hook face , straigth away position , aiming point , MOI etc etc . Its more physics than geometry though isnt it? dont know.
Yes the circle model like all models is not perfect . Although the Victoria's Secret brochure just showed up in the mail.... now those models are perfect. So theres an exception to every rule, which in itself is a rule which might have an exception.
