Anyone seen this yet? There's an insert on technology and the ball at impact. They included stuff on Trackman and D-plane stuff. I even saw something on an open clubface to the target to have the ball draw back...progress? I may even write a letter to them.

Cool, I have to check it out, yes definitely progress if they're talking about D-Plane

Yeah and they said that the clubface angle is the primary factor in determining the initial flight of the ball...they even mentioned the 85%/15% ratio!

What?  No way.  Hell just froze over.  Quick, somebody send a copy to Brandel.

i know...i am really, seriously thinking about writing a letter thanking them, and encouraging them to use this data to validate any teaching that they publish.  if they continue to publish stuff (like "line up where you want the ball to start and point the club at where you want the ball to end") that flies in the face of this data, then they are doing a complete disservice to their readers.
