Ball Flight Laws
Physics governing ball direction
Pronunciation
/bɔːl flaɪt lɔːz/
Definition
The principles that determine where a golf ball goes. The initial direction is primarily determined by clubface angle at impact (about 75-85%), while the curve is determined by the difference between clubface angle and swing path. Understanding ball flight laws helps diagnose swing issues.
Example
"Understanding ball flight laws helped him fix his slice."
