I know that’s hard for a young golfer today. There’s so much information available to players. They see new statistical analyses of their games every day. They see their swings on video all the time. A lot of them have a device called the TrackMan that sits on the range next to them and delivers twenty-six “data points” about every swing they make. They can know the launch angle, clubhead speed, and spin rate of every shot they hit. The chimera of a perfect, powerful, repeating golf swing seems to hover at the end of the range.
