Hyo-Joo translates her head back on the BS where as Ha-Neul doesn't as much until later near the top of the BS. But on the downswing, Ha-Neul's head moves away from the target more so than Hyo-Joo's moved on the backswing. Hyo-Joo's impact actually looks better than Ha-Neul, which looks more "flippy" than Hyo-Joo's? Am I correct, or way off? I have no clue who these players are - found this in my YT recommended vids. Google knows me all too well.

I would qualify Ha-Neul's head as steady and Hyo-Joo does re-center it by A4.5. Camera angle is also too far in front of them, some head rotation will make it look like it translates more than it actually does.

Remember with a driver the head can translate a little more than with a mid iron. Golfers tend to set up with more axis tilt, ball is teed up, shoulders turn a slightly flatter due to those differences.

Mike, are you using the word 'translate' to mean 'move'? Or move in a particular direction?

Translate basically means slide. It moves to a different location, whereas the other type of movement is just rotation.

I'm not even sure that the camera is too far ahead. I think both might have the ball back farther than normal and thus feel the need to shift back a bit so they can hit up slightly.

Also, what @Golfingdad said: translate is more specific than "move."

You can move, but not translate. If you translate, you must move.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
