I sometimes use to much irony. The Socratic Method maybe. Here is todays cone experiment. Take off your shoe, hold it by a lace and swing it around yourself in the HK cone shape. note the shoe will settle into an orientation because of the cone plane. CAUTION; This may make you dizzy and U could fall down. Warning; Although your shoe assumes an orientation U can not play soccer this way just as U can't play golf that way. HB ps- the physics- The cone has 2 forces on the suspended clubhead. 1. The outward cf caused by the radial acceleration of a curved path- the horizontal circle AND 2. the vertical force of gravity. T^he resultant of these two forces is the string angle and direction- [a vector resultant] When a golf club is swung on a SINGLE plane there is only 1 force- If U need orientation of the club face, as is prefered for golf, manipulate it.
