ALL LESSONS WITH BARRY TAYLOR UTILISE FLIGHTSCOPE
Flightscope records 24 pieces of data from every swing. However, most Pro's tend to focus on several key pieces of data foremost and I would like to explain a few of these to you in a bit more detail to help you understand it.
Picture
Club Path: The direction the club head is moving (right or left) at impact. A positive value means the club is moving to the right of the target at impact (“in-to-out” for a right-handed golfer) and a negative value means it is moving to the left of the target (“out-to-in” for a right-handed golfer).


Picture
Attack Angle: The direction the club head is moving (up or down) at impact. Shots hit off the ground should have a negative attack angle in order to create “ball first” contact, while a positive number is ideal for a driver. ​


Picture
Face Angle: the direction the club face is pointed (right or left) at impact. A positive value means the club face is pointed to the right of the target at impact (“open” for a right-handed golfer) and a negative value means the club face is pointed to the left of the target (“closed” for a right-handed golfer).

Picture
Launch Angle:​ The angle the ball takes off at relative to the ground. Launch angle is highly correlated to dynamic loft. Launch angle will always be a little less than dynamic loft, but will have a similar value.


Picture
Dynamic Loft: The amount of loft on the club face at impact. Too much dynamic loft can send the ball too high into the air and reduce the golfer’s distance.Too little dynamic loft can send the ball too low making the ball roll out excessively causing it difficult to judge distance.


Picture
Club Speed: The speed the club head is traveling immediately prior to impact. More club speed equals more potential distance. Adding 1 mph of club speed can increase your distance by up to 3 yards with the driver.

Picture
Smash Factor: The ball speed divided by club speed. The higher the smash factor the better the energy transfer.


Picture
Ball Speed: The speed of the golf ball immediately after impact. Ball speed is created by club speed and impact.Bad impact such as shots hit on the toe or heel will reduce the potential ball speed.


Picture
Spin Rate: The amount of spin on the golf ball immediately after impact. Spin rate has a major influence on the height and distance of a shot. Spin rate is one of the least appreciated numbers, especially in windy conditions.


Picture
Carry Distance: The distance the ball travels through the air.
