Get the Ball Airborne
Mechanically, a lofted,
shallow faced clubhead and a Low Bend
Point shaft and are the best combination to get the ball
airborne.
Loft...
Launch it at a steep angle and
the ball will fly high.
Shallow
Faced Clubs...
There's a lot of hype out
there about low centers of gravity.
If you taped a penny to the bottom of the club do you think it would
make the ball fly higher? Get real.
But... Remember
Newton? Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
Strike
the ball below it's equator... equal and
opposite reaction... it will fly higher.
Shaft geometry...
Shafts are designed to accommodate different skill levels and swing
speeds. A low bend point will help get the ball up.
A high bend point shaft will help keep the ball lower... but the
position of the bend point has much less effect on trajectory than loft
or face height.
