Torque Origins
When a golfer puts force into the ground there is an equal and opposite force put into them. The source and origin of these opposing forces is obvious.
I've always thought of alpha, beta, and gamma torques as strictly originating from the golfer. But, what about the torques that the darn swinging lever places on the golfer all on its own? I've been wrestling with just how these torques are differentiated from those that the golfer initiates and applies to the club. I won't have much to contribute to any possible discussion, but wanted to throw this thought out there in case the Manzella team finds it important to discuss. Thanks regardless!
