The lift will cause them to descend more slowly that they would due to ballistics alone, but that is far different than saying they will rise upwards above the launch path. That is not what I've observed. When watching professional golfers hit balls they appear to travel a traditional trajectory (often call the "cannon" route) for the first couple hundred feet and then take a noticable up path when they should start to sink. That up path seems quite dramatic to me. Its often called the "second wind". That's just my observation. -Robert |
