BallFlight.Golf
Understand why the ball curves. No guesswork, just physics.
A free browser tool that explains the relationship between club face, clubhead path, and ball flight. Diagnose your misses, simulate shot shapes, and download print-ready guides for every result — for right- and left-handed golfers.
Shot Shape Visualizer
Pick a shot shape to see face & path
Three Tools, One Goal
Analyze
Select your shot shape — slice, hook, pull, push, or straight — and see the likely club face angle and clubhead path that caused it.
Simulate
Set your own face angle and path values and preview the resulting ball flight. See how small adjustments change curvature and start line.
Guides
Step-by-step written guides with drills and fixes for every shot shape. Print-optimized for clean, high-contrast range sheets.
Understanding Ball Flight
Ball flight is governed by two forces at impact: club face angle determines where the ball starts, and clubhead path determines how much it curves. The relationship between these two produces every shot shape from a snap hook to a dead pull slice.
BallFlight.Golf makes this visual and interactive — helping you connect what you see in the air with what happened at impact, so you can fix the cause rather than the symptom.
Club Face Angle
Primarily controls start direction. Open face = starts right (for right-handers). Closed face = starts left.
Clubhead Path
Controls curve. Outside-in path with open face = slice. Inside-out path with closed face = hook.
