Thanks Paul. I just finished my final post (Part 3b) on Golf Discussions. TGM is something I am learning more about every year and look forward to better connecting the two (launch conditions) and TGM.

This article (reviewing optimal launch conditions) was not an easy one to write and tried to make the information relevant to well tested data and what to look for. Short summary of the article: The published optimal numbers send a mixed message and try to illustrate why.

OptimalFlight offers a 12 dimensional world to interact with in the ball flight realm. Whenever a 'table of optimal launch conditions' is published, we're holding 9 other variables constant.

Thanks, Todd, for this first post. Whether North Pole or South, alignments rule.

With today's technology, listen to the degrees. But understand the fundamental alignments:

Flat.

Level.

Vertical.

On Plane.

Up Plane.

Down Plane.

Parallel.

Centered.

You are a young man with tremendous talent. These are the alignments that must be understood (and produced) by the competitor on the tee, fairway and green.

Embrace those who bring these alignments to you.

Run from those who would make it more complex.
