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.

    • Wordle 1,065 6/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 ok, long putt for birdie so miss was not upsetting, but dang, a Double Bogie? 🤬
    • Day 14:  I hit a bucket with my 7i and driver, didn’t hit my 7 well but my driver was good.  Played my first “real” 9 holes.  Sure, I had a few mulligans but I kept score.  Lost two balls in the water.  Had to chip from the edge of the water and did pretty good, just rolled too far past the hole.  Par was 33 and I wasn’t double but  I was closer to it than I would have liked.  I had a bogey on 9 so that ended it on a sweet note for me. 
    • Day 134 - Had a tournament today, played poorly. Same as yesterday where the driving was great, but the second shots were awful. Need to dial that in tomorrow so I don’t finish DFL. 
    • Day 313: range session. Worked on my feel for getting my hips more open/rotated at impact. Then did a stack session. 
    • Shot a +1 73 today. Pretty pleased with the round even though it could have been 3-4 strokes lower without hitting it much different. 1 topped tee shot, a thinned wedge over the green from 40yds, and 2 putts that hung on the lip all could have made this a phenomenal round. 4 birdies total. Had an interesting back 9, 3 birdies, 3 pars, 3 bogeys and a penalty stroke. Birdied 1 and 18 so that was a fun way to start and end the round.
