A very interesting article that seemed to say that we should be hitting up on the driver and not down. Has anyone else read this? Be very careful with this one folks. The studies I have seen from Trackman may not be accurate because all it is saying is that with a 0 or 5 degree "upswing" the ball will go farther. However, they did not say what loft they were testing or if they were even using the same driver. It seemed to me that they were just creating launch angle. The trackman is a very accurate machine and I like the fact that it can track the ball and the clubhead. I would like to see more testing with different driver lofts to see if swinging "up" is better or is more loft better. golfgnome View Public Profile Send a private message to golfgnome Find all posts by golfgnome
