The ball matches the club head of No. 1 the best. If you can get the natural frequency of the ball to be the same as the natural frequency of the face you will get the best smash No.. It is the tram

Since this discussion has gotten to a fairly high level, remember that
momentum is a vector quantity that must be conserved before and after
impact. Since the club face is angled (loft) and the ball comes off the
face at some launch angle, and we assume that the original velocity of the

It must be TM week. I just sent this to Keith from an earlier post.

All:
An interesting discussion about the physics of collisions. I believe this is not
well understood by most people. Just a bit of my background so you know some of
my credentials. I am presently completely my PhD in atmospheric physics so I
hope I have at least at fundamental grasp of physics :)
RK,
Well there wizz bang, I want you to know that I just returned from your
favorite place, the Golfsmith GCA Conference. I also want you to know that
I won the long drive contest for those folks over the age of 60. What did

I agree that some commentators and teaching pros are

Just to reinterate - conservation of momentum applies to an isolated system, where no
external force is appled to either object in the collision. If the USGA air cannon

You're correct, if you assume that the force applied to the ball is not changing.
There are many tour pros whose smash factors don't fit the equations - pundits will

I've got a MFS75-350 X1 (orange) from Apache/Mcc that's got his name on it.
The design of the TM head does seem to encourage a high trajectory, I

Price is $62 for the MFS75-350.
