Would playing the ball forward give JB a little more time to reach top speed. I thought that I read that top speed would be achieved where both arms are straight, but the ball gets in the way depending on ball position and slows the clubhead down.
What do you think Homer would have been able to do with launch monitors and trackman stats?
The Optimal Flight developer is a pretty smart cookie who is slowly learning how TGM works. I have given Yoda the intro to Todd a while back as the info that comes out of these machines and the maths behind it are super high end stuff.
If you wish to tinker with info you get out of a machine at home, the OF software is not a bank breaker and I find it very useful to run what ifs on.
www.qualitygolfstats.com is the home page that has some interesting examples for the world to read in angle of decent figures etc.
Thanks Paul. I just finished my final post (Part 3b) on Golf Discussions. TGM is something I am learning more about every year and look forward to better connecting the two (launch conditions) and TGM.
This article (reviewing optimal launch conditions) was not an easy one to write and tried to make the information relevant to well tested data and what to look for. Short summary of the article: The published optimal numbers send a mixed message and try to illustrate why.
OptimalFlight offers a 12 dimensional world to interact with in the ball flight realm. Whenever a 'table of optimal launch conditions' is published, we're holding 9 other variables constant.

Thanks, Todd, for this first post. Whether North Pole or South, alignments rule.
With today's technology, listen to the degrees. But understand the fundamental alignments:
Flat.
Level.
Vertical.
On Plane.
Up Plane.
Down Plane.
Parallel.
Centered.
You are a young man with tremendous talent. These are the alignments that must be understood (and produced) by the competitor on the tee, fairway and green.
