I agree that clubhead COG lines up with the shaft at low point (not at impact unless ball is at low point)... but what are the implications with alignment and ball position of having drivers with clubhead COG more rearward than ever before??
The guys on Bombsquadgolf are often telling eachother about how open faced they have their drivers when they get fitted... Vijay apparently has a low loft, open faced driver....
Sure they might like to play a fade...but is the reason that they need an open face driver that they have stacked a load of weights into the rear port of their moveable weight technology drivers....moving COG backwards??
I am not so sure now.... Tom Wishon says that moving weight around the driver with your toolkit has so small an effect on COG that it does not really change performance that much...
Maybe shaft torque comes into this too...whilst the shaft flexes for COG to "line up"...I guess that is does not have to twist...hence clubface alignment may not change all that much...
Anybody else any ideas? I know Golfgnome might be able to help but his mind has real things to concentrate on this weekend!! PGA TOUR !! Good luck Jeff!!
