OK, to expand a little more....

How did Homer and Dr. T explain (compare and contrast) :

1) Initial ball flight?
2) Curvature of ball flight?

My understanding so far:-

1)Homer and Dr T (Mr T's more educated brother) both agree that initial ball direction is predominantly due to clubface at impact (Homer stated seperation and Dr T probably didn't care ...)

2)Homer thought that clubface behaviour during impact interval (hinge action) could influence ballflight in addition to the accepted method which uses disparity between clubface at impact and clubhead direction through impact - something that Dr T explained with his "D-plane".

Hinge action users (I place myself in this group) can demo the different ballflight behaviour that we can create (and the ball don't lie)- is this really a different form of physics or are we just altering the D -plane alignments?

Looking for discussion - thoughts - musings - but not too many hard line warriors with an axe to grind.... thanks.
