Hook Face too much incubation?
The sweet spot is behind the shaft on all clubs.

More so on the shorter clubs less so on the longer ones due to the loft.

Put your finger on the sweet spot of a wedge and see how far behind the shaft it is now do the same with a driver. Big difference.

Now with the wedge align the sweet spot up with the shaft (close the face until they are inline) and you will see the amount of "hook face" build into the club.

During impact the sweet spot aligns itself with the shaft producing the hook face.

Its that simple.

Great stuff. Are there any implications to the golfer? Any adjustments he or she must make? Club face alignment?

Thanks

Anybody interested in discussing the Right Arm Swing under the condition that we don't bring Tomasello's teachings into the discussion? We've had plenty of talk on the Tomasello method and I'm interested in a fresh perspective.
I have a short video of Homer viewing some right arm swingers and would like to post it if Lynn gives the OK.

This is video the public has never seen . . . from whose source we extracted the clip of Homer's swing that is posted in our Gallery. I understand the need to keep some things under wraps, but in this case, twenty-seven years is long enough.

Let'er rip, Bagger.
