I have been looking all over the internet to try and find a comprehensive picture of the New Ball Flight Laws. I found some that were correct but not complete and many that were not correct at all. I decided to take matters into my own hands and try my hand at creating a picture.
Here’s what I came up with:(Click on image to enlarge)
Leave a comment and tell me what you think.
UPDATE:
In order to make this as accurate as possible, the chart above is correct for irons from roughly 3 iron to 6 iron.
Here’s a link below to a post that gives the proper relationships with all the clubs for path and face to curve a ball that lands at the target.

Ed,
Thanks for those links. I’ve seen them both and thought they were excellent. Just wanted to give it a go myself.

John,
Have you come up with a new ball flight drawing since this one in February? I have been searching the internet for the “correct” ball flight laws versus the “wrong” ball flight laws as taught for so many years. I like this drawing, but am looking for something more with an actual club face in the drawing, etc. Can you let me know if you have a drawing of this or have seen a correct one on the internet? Thanks….Foley’s friend..lol. Spencer
Spencer,
Yea, I’ve seen one. I will track it down and post it here or send it you.

John,
could you share that ilustration/file that you mentioned in the comment above? That would be great. Thanks in advance!
