Ball Data




<strong>Ball Speed</strong>The speed of the geometric center of the club, measured at impact. Club speed has a direct influence on the ball speed.


Ball Speed

Launch speed of the golf ball. Ball speed has the biggest effect on carry distance. Centeredness of impact and an increase in club speed will ensure a higher ball speed.

<strong>Launch Angle</strong>Speed of the club head’s geometric center away from the radar, measured pre and post impact with the ball. From the speed profile, a player can determine swing speed consistency and efficient energy transfer.


Launch Angle

Angle at which the golf ball is launched relative to the horizon of the radar. Launch angle will influence the shot height and is mostly determined by the dynamic loft and angle of attack.

<strong>Launch Direction</strong>Acceleration of the club head’s geometric center away from the radar, measured pre- and post-impact with the ball. The acceleration profile will indicate the rate of closure due to shaft bend and club release by the golfer.


Launch Direction

Direction in which the golf ball gets launched relative to the radar’s target line. Club face angle will have the biggest affect on the horizontal launch angle of the ball.

<strong>Vertical Descent</strong>The speed of the geometric center of the club, measured at impact. Club speed has a direct influence on the ball speed.


Vertical Descent

Angle at which the ball approaches the landing area. A lower descent angle will increase distance with a driver, and a steeper descent angle will give a player more stopping power on the green with an iron.

<strong>Spin Axis</strong>The speed of the geometric center of the club, measured at impact. Club speed has a direct influence on the ball speed.


Spin Axis

The axis tilt on the ball to determine the direction of curvature in the ball flight. A function of the delta between club face angle and club path.
The amount of curvature in the ball flight is governed by (ball speed)² as a result of aerodynamic forces on the ball.

Total Distance

Final position of the ball on the ground from the tee.
