ball flight parameters. The marks must face the VectorX unit when the ball is
positione for hitting. No other ball marks shoul be visible to the camera. If
making your own marks, they shoul be ma e using a black Sharpie® on a blank
face of a white ball.
Logo Metho - Most golf balls on the market to ay provi e a
marking with a straight line type orientation as picture , or you
may also use the stripe metho below.
Line metho - Draw a black line at least one inch long on the
blank face of the ball. The mark must be clearly visible when it
is facing the VectorX an must be rawn perfectly straight.
There are a number of golf ball marking evices commonly use
in the in ustry that will work for placing the line on the ball for
use with the VectorX.
