    Normal VSP Ranges

    What are "normal" VSP ranges per club? I know that each person is different, however, some general ranges would be helpful.

    Spin & Curvature

    Is there a relationship between spin to ballspeed, club path and face angle where if the spin is reduced with the same ballspeed, club path and face angle the ball goes straighter? At what point would increased spin help accentuate the curvature and if too much, help prevent curvature? Maybe...

    Casio EX-FH100 - Settings

    I just purchased the Casio EX-FH100 camer and was wondering if there are any special settings that might help me take better videos of my golf swing. Positive responses appreciated.

    Spin Loft - Backspin - Attack Angle

    Is spin loft the same thing as backspin or is this a term created by Trackman for a new form of measurement of the golfball at impact? How does one increase their attack angle without increasing backspin? Swing more around to lessen their VSP??

    Trackman - Axis Tilt - Differences?

    Do the same ratios apply for the axis tilt if one hits a pull fade vs. a push draw (assume the same ball speed)? For example, if a push draw occurs with a club path of 3.0 and face angle of 1.5 to have the ball go right and land on the target line, would it be the same for a pull fade if the...

    Shooting Video of Golf Swing - Slow Motion

    I have a video camera (Sony HDR-HC5) that has a "slow motion" feature and captures video at 240 fps. However, I have to stand very far away to get an entire golf swing in the video with the lens on the widest setting. Any idea why I can't get the entire swing in the video unless I'm about 20...

    Severe Inside Path - How to Correct?

    My father hit balls on Trackman today and his path with a driver kept hovering around 5-8 degrees in to out with poor face control. His shots go all over the board because he can't control his path in relation to his club face (one time his path was 8.3 and his face 1.9). He has approxmiately...

    Brian's Instruction Schedule - 2011

    Brian - What's your instruction schedule for 2011? If you don't know it yet, how much lead time do you generally give us before you announce where you'll be located to conduct lessons?

    Club Path and Attack Angle - Trackman

    Does "club path" (as defined by Trackman) incorporate the attack angle as part of its calculation for the club path? I believe it incorporates VSP and HSP, I'm not sure if it incorporates AoA and I suspect it doesn't. If not, what really is the "path" that everyone keeps talking about that...

    Slices & Hooks - Trackman Style

    How much disparity between the face and path is needed on a driver for a slice? a hook? 4*? 5*? I know that if the face is square and the path is in to out by 3* with a driver the bill will draw very hard. Just curious.

    Measuring Rate of Closure

    Is there any device that measures the rate of closure of the clubhead throughout the swing? If not, wouldn't one want to have an objective way to measure this aspect of the club head throughout the swing? It seems to me that having an objective way to measure the closure rate could help one...

    Swing plane (formerly VSP) - High Hands

    Will high hands at impact generally cause the swing plane (as defined by Trackman and formerly known as VSP) to be higher? What causes the swing plane to increase? I know that Trackman doesn't measure the shaft and only measures the clubhead. However, the shaft is connected to the clubhead...

    Patterns/Systems - Pros - Greens in Reg

    Is there any pattern/system (S&T, Morad, BMan, TGM, etc.) that has caused a touring pro to average more than 14 greens in regulation per year (assume at least 15 tournaments for the pro)? If so, what pattern/system? If not, what does that tell us about comparing patterns/systems and the...

    Elbow Plane - Soft Draw Pattern

    I've swung on the TSP (turned shoulder plane) all my life and generally follow BMan's soft draw pattern. Am I correct that this pattern is not contingent upon the downswing being on the EP (elbow plane) and/or a CP release? I've learned recently that swinging on the TSP causes more closure...

    Trackman Range

    How long until this product is out and how much will it cost the average driving range? Will Trackman Range show attack angle, club path and face angle? Does the Trackman Range use a real Trackman or is it a smaller version that costs less and doesn't have all of the data like a normal Trackman?

    Swinging up with the Driver - How?

    I apologize if this is a second post. I thought I posted this question yesterday but it isn't up. How does one swing "up" with the driver without a lot of axis tilt to the right (assume a right handed golfer)? When my father tries to swing "up" with the driver he falls back onto his right...

    Fat Wedge Shots & Turf Conditions

    How much does the type of turf condition affect everyone's swing with a wedge (half shots and full shots)? Does anyone change their lie angles for different turf conditions (flatter lie for bent grass for a more rotational swing)? I generally play on rye grass in PA with a fair amount of clay...

    Distance Control - Wedge shots (50-115 yards)

    Do the tour players want to control the distance of their wedges through the width of their stance and how quickly they pivot/turn through their wedge shots? I've generally tried to control distance with the clock method and by "feel" in my hands in realtion to the perceived clock. The problem...

    Knuckle Wedge Shot Through Wind - How?

    I hit a 110 yard knuckle ball wedge shot (52* wedge off the fairway) into a 20 mph headwind that pierced right through the wind. How does one consistently hit this type of shot? This shot had a lower ballflight than a typical solid wedge shot. I don't know if my attack angle changed for this...

    How Does Shaft Angle Affect VSP?

    How does the angle of the shaft in the downswing affect, if at all, the VSP? Also, what should happen at impact, if anything, if the angle of the shaft on the downswing is higher than the same type of downswing (obviously it can't be exactly the same) with a lower shaft angle? For example...
