VSP Help

[Richard Franklin]

The VSP of a swing is measured by tracking the sweetspot's "verticality" 3 feet before AND AFTER impact. Doesn't that make the measurement misleading? EXAMPLE : A player is "underplane'' or shallow pre impact. BUT post impact the club "exits" relatively high. Doesn't the second half negate the pre impact shallowness? The same question applies to the golfer who comes into impact relatively high but swipes the club low and left after impact. Do these scenarios create misleading VSP numbers??

Second part: is there somewhere I can find "tour averages" for VSP's throughout the bag?

It is claimed that the club moves "planarly" (on one plane) through the impact zone so your scenario would, if this were true, not really be possible. But as a non TM owner I am no expert on this, so I would await the opinion of an expert before drawing any conclusions. Also VSP, HSP and Angle of Attack are all separate measurements.
