The Golf Channel for Golf Lessons
Data-driven club fitting, precision shaft tuning, ergonomic grip design, and scientifically engineered putters combine to sharpen your swing, add measurable yards off the tee, and deliver steadier putting-turning equipment choices into lower scores and more consistent performance
Unlock the hidden gains in your game by mastering shaft flex – add driving distance, fine‑tune swing mechanics, and sharpen putting feel. Through biomechanical assessments and evidence‑based fitting protocols, we match you with the ideal flex for your body and motion, then guide you with level‑specific drills and measurable performance metrics so every session delivers real, trackable improvement
This empirical analysis assesses how driver shaft flex affects ball speed, launch angle and dispersion, providing quantified relationships to guide evidence-based shaft selection for individualized performance gains.
How Impact Location Affects Spin Rate, Explained in 1 Minute
The location of the impact on a golf ball greatly affects its spin rate. When a ball is hit on the upswing, the club imparts backspin on the ball. This causes the ball to curve downwards and to the right (for right-handed golfers). Conversely, when a ball is hit on the downswing, the club imparts topspin on the ball. This causes the ball to curve upwards and to the left. The higher the spin rate, the more pronounced the curve will be.
