It is true that the hosel rotates around the sweetspot when one rolls the club on a tabletop. However, that happens because the clubshaft is rotating around its longitudinal axis with no lateral movement of the entire clubshaft in space. That phenomenon doesn't happen in the golf swing.

Jeff,

You are wrong.



Your argument ignores the fact that the Horizontal Hinge Action is DUAL (10-10-D). That is, the Horizontal Motion of the Clubface (Closing Only) through Impact (Ideal applciation / 2-C-1) is executed on an Inclined Plane. In TGM, the orbiting Sweetspot defines the Inclined Plane, and for this reason, the Clubshaft cannot possibly remain on its own Address and Impact Plane. Hence, it must rotate to and from the Plane of the Sweetspot.

Of course, the Hackers of the world agree with you and do their dead-level best to avoid this required rotation. Homer Kelley understood this applied misconception and aptly labeled it Steering . . .
