Hi Yoda,first up ,thanks for input re index finger on hitters thread.
My query now is,I recently read somewhere on this forum that the ball is hit on the outside quadrant to impart draw or hookspin!
Did I read that correctly,if so could you please redirect to that article.Thanks in advance Terry
Not Yoda ,but you're DEFINITELY GOING TO HOOK IT if you hit on the outside quadrant.
You need to hit the inside quadrant -assuming a square/square plane with horizontal hingeing
Thanks Neil,I,m in agreeance with you,but I,m referring to an article that Yoda wrote,I,m not sure where I read it,somewhere here,that all things considered,P/angle...angle of attack..etc,that the c/face indeed hit outside quadrant of the ball,what I,m after is that article,...I had a little wager that,s all.Thanks mate

I'd say you'd have to hit the inside to hit a draw and outside to hit a fade . . . the ball leaves the face at 90 degrees to the leading edge. So to hit a shot that draws the leading edge has to be RIGHT of the intended target but closed in relation to the path. Vicey Versey for the fade . . .
I would think if you hit outside of the center line you'd probably end up with some sort of yank duck hook deal?
Thanks Bucket....I,m after the article.

Did I tell you that Meth was not really good for you!?
Let's see if I follow you " I need to hit the outside to hit a fade" but then you also said "If I hit the outside of the center line you'd probably end up with some sort of yank duck hook deal1?"
Personally, I'd say that you'd need to hit the inside for a draw, the outside for a big hook and the outside for a draw and the outside for a big hook! The only difference between your post and mine (I know you'll tell me your version of the difference in you reply post- if your brain cells aren't completely gone) is that I can make mine make sense- the question is: Can you make your post make sense? And no- another hit of Meth - although you think it's going to help you think clearly- trust me it's not!!
Bring it lard bucket! YOU Big .... never mind I don't want to get a lifetime ban from the forum - It's tempting but I need to hold back!
P.S. If you pick on my boy Neil one more time - I swear I will drive to North Carolina and it won't be pretty!

In a neat little town they call Belfast
Apprenticed in trade I was bound
And many an hour of sweet happiness
I spent in that neat little town
Then bad misfortune came o'er me
That caused me to stray from the land
Far away from my friends and relations
To follow the black velvet band
-Traditional Irish
Brownman,
Dont do it. No matter what (meth induced) Mike O, 12 piece says.
My take.
Outside/inside.
Let me ask this - wouldnt the main factor be clubface motion through impact?
I'll bet my life, ok, yours - that, I can hit outside quadrant and slice the hell out of it.
This thread is going nowhere,I read an article that was written by YODA,it may have just been a thread or the like,Whereby he stated that to impart draw or hookspin,this is done by hitting the outside quadrant of the ball.
Someone asked if it was a typo,his reply was NO,then proceeded to explain WHY!
I do have some golfing knowledge,that is why I second looked the thread as I could,nt beleive it either,he went on to explain P/angle..Approach angle etc ,It did actually make sense.
All I was after ,was THE ARTICLE....Nothing else
Thanks

I see what you are saying . . . that post was retarted . . . I reckon what I was trying to say (too much turkey gravy on my fangers) was that I'd always hit the inside corner to hit all the shots . . .
As for you and your little "boy" friend Neil . . . . Southern Man Don't Need You Round Anyhow! Don't run off the forum so quick . . . I was just about the poison the koolaid . . . .

I don't know where that thread is! - I'd imagine you look up Yoda's profile and then go through all 2.1 billion posts to find it or use the thread search and type in some different terms that might pull it up!
Once Brownman calms down - I'll be back to bust some Bucket Balls!

That was too easy for you Mike.
If it helps I do remember reading Yoda's reference to hitting the outside rear quadrant of the ball to draw it, but I do not recall the thread. It was my impression that the stroke was still down, forward, and out, and that the face was closed enough relative to the stroke that the closing toe contacted a point on the outside rear quadrant a millisecond before the rest of the face compressed the ball, creating counter-clockwise or hooking spin.
But I have been wrong before here.........

Here's what Yoda wrote. Picked up this quote from another thread. It's from a longer post I read in the Archives yesterday.
"Hitters and Manipulated Hands Swingers play the Ball back (of Straightaway Flight Location) for Draws and forward for Fades. With the Left Wrist positioned Flat, Level and Vertical, the Club is rotated within the Grip -- Closed for Draws and Opened for Fades -- to agree with the new Ball Location. A Ball placed back in the Stance will Draw because the Clubface makes contact with the Outside Aft quadrant of the Ball. A Ball placed forward in the Stance will Fade because the Clubface makes contact with the Inside Aft Quadrant. "

You're right but sometimes when they "tee'm up" you can't pass on them. I'll try to be more creative!
I'm sure it's sunny and 80 degrees in Ohio- or did you lose the job of "Head of tourism" for the State?
Thanks Loren
