M.O.I.
July 10, 2009 by admin
photo credit: diskychick MOI means “moment of inertia,” a measure of resistance to angular acceleration. Bottom line – it means how quickly a clubhead will twist during impact when a golfer misses the sweet spot. Every club in your bag is governed by this law of physics.
Amateurs require a high MOI, therefor, they need a club that has the weight moved far away from the center of gravity. This type of weight distribution gives the player a great deal of forgiveness during mishits either high or low or heel and toe. Putters with high MOI are balanced better and will remains steady during impact. Bottom line - This is all about forgiveness. For the average golfer it means using a set of clubs that will contribute to keeping your ball “in play,” at all times.
