TM4 combines dual radar systems with high-speed cameras to deliver an incredibly detailed analysis of every golf shot. But what exactly does it measure? Let’s break down the types of data Trackman 4 provides and how they can help improve your game.

Data on TM4

• Ball Data
  Trackman 4 captures a comprehensive set of ball flight metrics, including:
  
  
  • Ball Speed: The velocity of the ball immediately after impact.
  • Launch Angle: The angle at which the ball leaves the clubface.
  • Spin Rate: How fast the ball is spinning, which affects trajectory and distance.
  • Spin Axis: The tilt of the ball’s spin, influencing curve (draw or fade).
  • Carry Distance: How far the ball travels in the air before hitting the ground.
  • Total Distance: The full distance the ball travels, including roll
    
    
• Club Data
  Equally important is the data related to the golf club’s movement:
  
  
  • Club Speed: The speed of the clubhead at the moment of impact.
  • Attack Angle: The vertical angle at which the clubhead approaches the ball.
  • Dynamic Loft: The actual loft of the clubface at impact, influenced by swing mechanics.
  • Club Path: The direction the clubhead is moving during impact (in-to-out or out-to-in).
  • Face Angle: The direction the clubface is pointing at impact (open, closed, or square).
  • Impact Location: Where on the clubface the ball makes contact
    
    
• Putting Data
  Trackman 4 also includes a performance putting feature, which analyzes:
  
  
  • Club Delivery: How the putter is moving at impact.
  • Ball Launch: The initial direction and speed of the ball.
  • Speed Control: How well the putt is paced, crucial for distance control
