A while back I stumbled upon a Nike diagram that numbered the ball flights for the 8 settings of the STR8-Fit Dymo2.

I thought I had saved it in Bookmarks but I guess not...

Can anyone help me find it again? IT was a side by side description of the flights with the grip position shown below it. The shots were numbered 1-8. The #1 shot  was the the shot with the greatest fade.The #8 shot was the one with the greatest hook.  It was different than the wheel that I see on the Nike site currently. Actually the side by side was much easier to understand.

Two quick questions as well...

#1

Neutral with Upright lie vs. Neutral with Flat   Same swing... which was lower ball flight?

#2

If a use the STR8 slight fade setting this will decrease loft  11.5 to 10.5 right?

Since my swing can handle the 1* open will the lower loft pick me up distance?

In the past my logic was only a draw had the ball spin to pickup distance....thru roll.

Bottomline:

If I adjust to 1* Closed it adds  1* loft  (11.5 to 12.5) but draws

If I adjust to 1* Open it subtracts 1* loft (11.5 to 10.5) but fades

Which is more likely to add distance... Help?

thanks.

As for your questions, as said closing the face will increase the loft and opening the face will decrease the loft.

As for distance, this will vary due to conditions but as a general rule, most shots to the right will de shorter as will a lower shot (although a lower shot will be better in windy conditions) as it will have less carry, but may roll out longer on dry & firm fairways.

Depends on the person hitting the ball, but with me if I hit a ball left it always goes further.

    • Wordle 1,816 2/6* ⬛⬛🟧⬛⬛ 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧   forgot to play yesterday
    • Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.  
    • Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down. 
    • I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.   
    • Day 279 6-8  Worked on low point control skills work tonight. will be doing this for a few weeks. Tonight was just trying figure out how to get low point forward.  No ball.
