Cant be.  Look at this video of Tiger hitting a 2 iron.   Even as flat as the loft on that club, the ball still starts upward even though the club is still moving downward.

Do you have a lot of cats @Joe Mama ?

Your model might be more complete than @saevel25's, but even yours doesn't show everything such as ball compression nor the fact that it changes over the roughly 400 microsecond time interval that this entire collision takes place.

You mean this :-D

I agree with @Ernest Jones .  It seems @Joe Mama just wants to argue for the sake of argument.

Other images of the ball being compressed:

To show how much of the ball is compressed (yellow area):

Although, I was responsible for using the word compression , it's actually deformed. Sorry about that folks. :doh:

Correct. It does not get appreciably denser. :-)

Ha nope.

Just thought it was cool to visually show how much the ball deforms.

If we had a face on view, we would see the ball deform laterally outward too.

That's really what I was getting at. Golf balls are 3D.

Erik, I believe you are wrong, as usual. The word is "densier" and pronounced with the French "-eh" at the end. ;-)

Are you sure about this?

I will believe it if @Ernest Jones validates it....

Don't forget proper pronunciation of 'den' as well.  It should be pronounced dawn-see-ay, with the 'aw' sound very nasal.

      @anaveragehacker, you’ve been ignorant this whole time and now you’re being disrespectful. Not a great combo. You asked what the rules were and we told you. You complained about them and we told you why they were the way they are. The “who is the committee?” Question has been answered a few times. Dave and I are Rules Officials and the other people replying know the rules far better than you, so the fact that we are all disagreeing with you should say something. this thread is going nowhere and your original question has been answered several times.

      What is this committee I keep hearing about? We’re a small league playing at a county course. And these are temporary issues that may be gone in a day or two. In any case, I wish more people agreed with me. It seems that trying to convince golfers to modernize rules is like trying to change the Bible. You guys are so serious it kind of proves my point. Other sports make adjustments for  field conditions etc during lower level play. This isn’t life and death here, it’s sport. No need to keep arguing. I have my opinion and you have yours.

      Yeah, I agree that some of the charts are hard to make sense of. That short game chart is showing how often a short game shot ends up within a certain distance. The orange bar is all shots, the green bar is for shots within 25 yards, and the blue bar is for shots between 25 and 50 yards. I just play around with all of it and will figure it out. I would suggest just diving in and see what jumps out and work on that.

      Struggling With Fat Shots and Dont Know Why

      By saevel25 ·

      PGA Tour players weight shift to their lead foot way sooner and to a higher % than amateur. I would say it is something like close to 90% lead foot at impact for PGA Tour player. For Amateurs it could be under 50%. You need to get the weight transfer over more and sooner. You can't rely on the feeling of finishing on the lead foot as validation you did so.
