I think the tilting of spin axis of the ball and the divot been down and out aren't enough for your claim about Homer and the d-plane , from what i have read about the d-plane there is alot more to it than that. Seems a bit of a leap.
I never said Homer came up with the D-plane . . . however in 2-D-0 . . . he clearly says PRACTICALLY right angles to the face . . . didn't give the exact percentage . . . can you?
So he didn't have a video camera . . . a radar machine . . . or a computer . . . he was a lot closer than anybody else . . . was it 100%? Maybe not . . .but pretty dang close . . . and tell your homeeeez to spell my name right . . .
Im going from memory here (Yoda'll know) but I remember an account of Homer saying that the ball leaves at an angle that is about 85 percent due to face angle but that for all practical purposes you may as well say it was 90 degrees as a rule of thumb. He said something about golf not being played by people with a slide rule in their pocket or something, at least not by the people he was talking to.

I guess all that chicken clogged up your system as i never repeat never said that you said it was Homer's concept. Why so defensive just a simple question and you get your feathers all ruffled and i don't know what your talking about my homies, i said i'll give you my PH# in a pm and when you or your homie Kev call me you can then realize i'm not who you think i am then i want an apology for just asking a question and getting beaten up about it.I got nothing to hide.

You called yourself a Dick and i agreed. What mission? like i said i'll give you my PH# and you call and see if i'm on a mission then you can apologize. I asked a simple question and all you have been doing is attacking me calling me Mike etc. If your really nice maybe i'll take you to that prom Britney..lol.

No I called my self "THE" Dick . . . anyway . . . in your first post you asked where could you find the d-plane in Homer's book . . . it ain't in there . . . you knew that. Right? Or am I wrong about that?
Then you made the point that the d-plane is better. Fine. So I am to assume that since you think the d-plane is better than Homer's "stuff" . . you knew the d-plane ain't in the book.
So . . . what was the point of these posts? Were you seeking information or here to make a point? Either way fine.
I didn't call you Mike . . . who is Mike? But whoever Mike is . .
I never said Homer came up with the D-plane . . . however in 2-D-0 . . . he clearly says PRACTICALLY right angles to the face . . .
Sorry if this post doesn't fit.
My book (7th ed) in 2-D-0 says "properly at right angles", not "practically". I noticed this from the very first time I read the book because it is an unusual combination of words.
