– Homer in, 2-F. PLANE OF MOTION, defines a dynamic sweet spot plane separate from the shaft plane.
– Yoda to Martee: “Remember, Martee, don't confuse the Clubshaft's Impact Plane Line with the Sweetspot's Impact Plane Line. These are quite different!”
I got intrigued and had a closer look since I didn’t feel that a golfer is able feel the difference between these two planes.
As I analyzed Homer’s ideas I noticed that I disagree with the definition of his sweetspot plane. I agree that the orientation of his sweet spot plane is determined by the line of pull of centrifugal force. However the two anchor points he defines for this line of force are erroneous and hence the ensuing sweet spot plane plane.
The centrifugal force operates through the 2 deg of freedom ellipsoid lead arm wrist joint and the longitudinal center of gravity of the club. Homer however sees it operate through the lag pressure point and the sweet spot of the clubhead.
Since Homer uses a page on the subject and Yoda feels it is important, I thought it worthwhile to post my ideas so people can make up their own mind on the issue. If I am wrong than at least they have trough reflection obtained a better understanding of the issue.
