Homer assumed Separation to be at Low Point but what if it isnt?

Print this out and turn upside down for Players View. Average Club: Impact 4" behind Low Point.

AWSOME thats exactly what Im talking about.......

Straight shot or draw?

Its very interesting to look at this drawn to scale, thanks D. I always thought Homer avoided scale for illustrative purposes......but now Im also wondering if he did so to heighten the readers appreciation for the Inside-Out nature of Impact along the Arc of Approach. I dunno Maybe. He did say that "its inside-out and should feel inside-out".

Very fun Post.

Where did Homer say that Separation occurs at Low Point? I can't find that anywhere.

Lets agree on the Flat Left Wrist and that Both Wrists are Level at Impact. We know that the Right Wrist is Level, Bent and Vertical at Impact. Then, is the Left Wrist Vertical at Impact or at Low Point?

The Club is gripped so that the Hands align to the Longitudinal Center of the Club. That's why the Left Thumb must be on that Line (aft side of shaft). When you grip the shaft and adjust your Flat Left Wrist to Vertical, the Clubface looks shut.

I gotta run. Wife is rushing me to go for a walk in a park 30 miles from here. Go figure.

In the drawings only, 2-C-1 #3 for instance. To be clear he didnt assume it be so in a literal sense unless one positioned the ball in such a manner.

But the question makes for a different "look" than most would assume to be associated with a straight shot. Or is it a straight shot?

It has implications to grip rotation, grips with spines on them etc.

We havent even got to the Line of Compression yet!

Push with a draw for horizontal hinging push fade for angled hinging and if its possible to have verticle hinge a low push?
(I could be wrong here)

Bear, that's my geometry. Perfectly straight with a straight ballistic upward trajectory (maybe the "Rifle" Shafts help). Compression rating: "Very High". The ball doesn't have a floating, curvy trajectory look although it carries farther than it seems and lands soft. It takes off like a bullet.

If the true face angle is closed to the true path of the sweetspot then it would be a draw. This swing illustrates a that has a rather shallow verticle angle of attack considering how little "out" there is after seperation/low point. The more down = the more out.

Two votes for a draw and a post from D bragging about how great his traj is. Which it is , Ive seen it "up close and in person".

I guarantee it's a straight shot.

We all do realize that the two Black lines representing Low Point, the Horizontal one is below ground and represents the Low Point Plane Line (Bottom edge of the swing Plane) and the vertical one is at the Left Shoulder. It's a perfectly On Plane Stroke before and after Low Point.

Anyway, it's only important to note that "Approach Lines" are drawn on the ground and guide the Clubhead.

Now, if we look at it with "D" plane analysis we ....??

Low point is in the ground past the ball. Homer wanted the golfer to drive the ball into the ground aka china!
