I am no physics expert, but this little tidbit may help:
The hook-face alignment of the Clubhead – designed to give it the proper relation to the Plane Line – diverts the ball from its true tangential path.
Im not 100% sure either, this is sure interesting though . It is 'my thoughts'(for what their worth until I become more educated on this)is that the orientation of the clubface gives the 'point of compression' but the line from that point onwards through the ball is the clubhead force which is tangential to the sweetspot orbit. If the point of compression is not in a vertical axis, you get what you see in diagram 2-B. Whats your thoughts?
Now looking again at diagram 2-C-1 whilst typing this post. I missed that the arrow for clubhead force is tangential in the low point but it looks as though the LOC took the clubhead force from the original impact point and perhaps why it points downward... which would make sence as it is the point that the compression or distortion took place.... very interesting indeed...
