This video examines ball compression through the lens of where the ball actually contacts the club face — because even a perfectly executed swing loses energy if club face contact is off-center.
Find out how you can change club face contact to reduce bad shots and start hitting more consistently solid shots across the entire face of the club. An AI swing analyzer can help you identify your contact tendencies and the swing patterns causing them.
You’ll also learn about moment of inertia (MOI) — the measure of how resistant the club is to twisting at impact — and how the stability of your club at impact directly determines how solidly you’ll hit the ball on mishits. Understanding MOI explains why modern cavity-back irons and game-improvement drivers are more forgiving on off-center club face contact.
