Webinar: Lag, Load and Release Kinetics

The second webinar of 2025 is scheduled for June 26th and will run for 90 minutes. This session will explore how golfers lag, load, and release the club using force and torque. Since the launch of Jacobs 3D in 2014, the Alpha, Beta, and Gamma component convention has become the best way to analyze how a golfer moves the club during the swing. The Alpha and Beta components serve as the primary inputs for generating lag and shaft lean. A deeper understanding of these elements can lead to a more efficient and powerful swing.

We’re also introducing a new addition to our research platform: Jacobs 2D. This streamlined version of Jacobs 3D simplifies the analysis to a two-dimensional club convention. While 3D provides a more complete picture, 2D remains widely used in golf kinesiology through simplified models like the functional double pendulum or a swing plane coordinate system. In this webinar, we’ll demonstrate how 2D and 3D compare in capturing swing dynamics, with a dedicated segment on the new Jacobs 2D system.
