View Single Post #10 12-09-2011, 12:22 PM HungryBear Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2008 Posts: 759 Using a "test club" with the tip weighted to equiv. of club head mass and swinging this "club" flat on yhe X,Y plane , about the Z axis , with a "MACHINE" that either pulls or pushes as the TGM power package. The shaft will remain flat on the plane and the tip will either LAG or LEAD dependent on if it is accelerating or decelerating. (shaft will flex)this is due to tangential acceleration. And, there will be a SUBSTANTIAL radial force due to the radial acceleration.(shaft trys to stretch) A sensor located about where #3 would be can be used to sense the tangential acceleration but not the radial acceleration. AND the position of the TIP is unknown until PRACTICE has adapted the machine computer to compensate for variables. ie. the club becomes part of the machine. like any tool we use. pen, fork keyboard. sword etc. we just practice into automatic. OK so far? hb HB HungryBear View Public Profile Send a private message to HungryBear Find all posts by HungryBear
