ProGrafix 3 Software (continued)

This program gathers swing data and animates the actual swing path, impact point, and clubface angle using computer graphics. It also tabulates data on clubhead speed , ball carry, tempo, ball spin, clubhead rotation through impact, and Solid Hit Factor. Furthermore, a separate table can be displayed showing all swing data, with averages for up to 100 swings.

This information, as well as any other graph or table, can be printed out to provide a permanent record of progress—which makes a nice presentation to the student. Now players can visually relate clubhead action in the impact area and its affect on ball flight. The result is a better understanding of the complex interacting forces in golf.

Data is accumulated from up to 100 consecutive swings, recording each characteristic in an easy-to-read table format. This allows a visual assessment of all swing results, including averages for: • Clubhead speed • Ball carry • Solid Hit Factor • Clubface rotation • Impact point • Swing tempo • Rotation • Swingpath • Clubface angle. The Swing Table shows a complete record of each swing and a summary of all swings recorded. Eight different graphs can be displayed on one screen to simplify data viewing.

Now you can compare up to 15 test clubs to determine best-fit scenario for every customer. Easily compare changes in shaft stiffness, weight, length and other vital criteria. Each club's swing data and averages are tabulated for quick viewing and study. All clubs are sorted and arranged in order of attributes such as highest clubhead speed, longest carry, and best clubface angle.

This intuitive process allows you to identify the particular club set that will produce the best results for your customer. At a glance, you can quickly determine which club outperforms all others in these categories:

Here's your point of view: two diagnostic holes—a par 3 and a par 4—are graphically displayed from an overhead perspective. A cursor allows the player to aim the shot right, left or center of the fairway. On screen, repetitive shots are displayed in a tracked pattern to evaluate the ball's flight path and landing area.

With the simplicity of a keystroke, the player can view a single shot, or after several practice shots view his total shot pattern. Visual feedback on distance, accuracy and consistency occurs instantly. Select any club for practice. Par 3 tees are located at 160, 180 and 200 yards.
