Funny, David never straightened his.





Take a guess.

I have my ideas, but I also had my ideas about these swings...which weren't very correct.

Are the trackman readings off turf or mats?

Both.

It did the opposite.

I was confusing the upper and lower series when I wrote my response. After reading about your release finding, a straight line from sweet spot through hands and up to left shoulder seems like the ideal at impact, for a stock shot anyway.

The different hands location at impact is anyway the only significant difference I can see from the pictures.

Brian -

You stated that a divot is not an indicator for the attack angle. How can a golfer have a positive attack angle with a divot (unless the divot is well before the ball and one hits back up into the ball which really isn't a golf shot)? I believe that a divot demonstrates a negative attack angle. How much? Don't know and would need a Trackman to know. However, I do believe that a divot is evidence of a negative attack angle and not a positive attack angle so it is an indicator.

I agree but you can be hitting down quite a bit and not take a divot. What you are saying is correct though.

Thanks Kevin.

Are there any special tips for hitting balls on grass while using a Trackman? I have no problem with readings from a mat, but grass sometimes causes problems.

Pick it clean or it's dicey to say the least. Firm ground is best

So, is it possible to do state of the art golf instruction now without radar?
