    Home/Learning Center/Launch monitor data

    Launch monitor data

    Every metric below has its own screen. Start with the one you care most about, then connect the metrics together to understand why each shot behaved the way it did.

    Full swing data

    These metrics describe club delivery, ball flight, and distance outcomes for full-swing shots.

    Club Speed

    How fast the clubhead is moving just before impact.

    Attack Angle

    Whether the club is traveling up or down at impact.

    Dynamic Loft

    Loft presented at impact, not the loft stamped on the club.

    Club Path

    Horizontal direction the club is moving through impact.

    Face Angle

    Where the face is pointing at impact relative to target.

    Face to Path

    Difference between face angle and club path.

    Spin Loft

    Gap between delivered loft and direction of club travel.

    Swing Plane

    Vertical tilt of the clubhead movement plane.

    Swing Direction

    Horizontal orientation of the swing plane base.

    Low Point

    Where the swing arc bottoms out relative to impact.

    Impact Height

    Vertical strike location on the clubface.

    Impact Offset

    Horizontal strike location on the clubface.

    Dynamic Lie

    Shaft lie orientation at impact.

    Ball Speed

    How fast the ball leaves impact.

    Smash Factor

    Efficiency ratio of ball speed to club speed.

    Launch Angle

    Initial vertical launch of the ball.

    Spin Rate

    How fast the ball is spinning after impact.

    Launch Direction

    Initial horizontal start direction of the ball.

    Spin Axis

    Tilt of the axis the ball rotates around.

    Height (Apex)

    Maximum ball-flight height.

    Curve

    Side movement from launch line to carry point.

    Landing Angle

    How steeply the ball descends at landing level.

    Carry

    Distance traveled in the air.

    Side

    Lateral offset at carry crossing point.

    Total

    Estimated full distance including rollout.

    Side Total

    Lateral offset at final resting position.

    Swing Radius

    Radius of the measured swing arc segment.

    Max Height Distance

    Where downrange the ball reaches apex.

    Low Point Height

    Vertical relation between impact position and no-interaction low point.

    Low Point Side

    Horizontal relation between impact and modeled low point.

    D Plane Tilt

    Tilt of the D plane relative to plumb line.

    Putting data

    These metrics describe stroke mechanics, launch, skid and roll behavior, and green interaction.

    Club Speed (Putting)

    Putter speed immediately before impact.

    Backswing Time

    Time spent moving the putter away from the ball.

    Stroke Length

    How far back the putter travels in backswing.

    Forward Swing Time

    Time from transition to impact.

    Tempo

    Backswing time divided by forward swing time.

    Dynamic Lie (Putting)

    Shaft lie at impact during putting stroke.

    Face Angle (Putting)

    Putter face direction at impact.

    Club Path (Putting)

    Path direction of putter through impact.

    Face to Path (Putting)

    Difference between putter face and path.

    Attack Angle (Putting)

    Up/down movement of putter at impact.

    Launch Direction (Putting)

    Initial left/right start direction of the putt.

    Launch Angle (Putting)

    Initial vertical launch of the putt.

    Bounces

    Number of bounces in the skid phase.

    Skid Type (Sliding)

    Skid profile with constant deceleration and no bounce.

    Ball Speed (Putting)

    Initial ball speed off the putter face.

    Skid Distance

    Distance from launch until true roll starts.

    Roll Speed

    Ball speed when pure roll begins.

    Speed Drop

    Percent speed loss from launch to roll start.

    Roll %

    How much of total putt distance is true roll.

    Entry Speed Distance

    Distance to standardized entry-speed point.

    Side (Putting)

    Lateral offset from target at entry-speed point.

    Distance (Putting)

    Straight-line distance traveled by the putt.

    Effective Stimp

    Putt-specific speed based on deceleration.

    Flat Stimp

    Estimated general green speed from deceleration.

    Elevation

    Height change from start to entry-speed point.

    Break

    Total sideways movement from launch line.

    Slope % Side

    Average horizontal surface inclination.

    Slope % Rise

    Average vertical surface inclination.
