The slice action closer to the bottom results in a higher and slower ball, typically used for lobs while a cut closer to the side of the ball results in a faster and lower ball. It is considered hard to be able to consistently pull off deep, low yet quick backhand slices and requires much practice and finesse.
Swing speed, ball speed, spin rate, apex height, and more will be provided by Trackman's radar technology. This data is also used to provide the true “ball-in-motion” flight path of every tee shot. If a player hits a rope hook or a stinger, you’ll see just how much the ball moved from right to left or how low the apex was.
Post swing pose for golfer Henry Cotton in 1931. The golf swing is the action by which players hit the ball in the sport of golf. The golf swing is a complex motion involving the whole body; the technicalities of the swing are known as golf stroke mechanics. There are differing opinions on what constitutes a "good" golf swing.

The Magnus effect is not responsible for the movement seen in conventional swing bowling, [30]: Fig. 4.19 in which the pressure gradient is not caused by the ball's spin, but rather by its raised seam, and the asymmetric roughness or smoothness of its two halves; however, the Magnus effect may be responsible for so-called "Malinga Swing", [31 ...

James C. McLean (born May 18, 1950) is a leading American golf instructor. [1] [2] He is known for coining the phrase “X-Factor”, observing that the greater the differential between the hips and shoulders at the top of the swing, the more power the golfer can create.
Also known as a knife edge chop, back-hand slice or gyaku suihei chop (English: Reverse horizontal chop) (逆水平チョップ, Gyaku suihei choppu), is the act of a wrestler slice-chopping the chest of the opponent using an upward backhand swing. [1]
For an off cutter, a right-handed bowler pulls his fingers down the right side of the ball (from his viewpoint), in an action similar to bowling an off break, only at higher speed. This changes the axis of spin to make it more like an off break, which makes the ball deviate to the right when it bounces on the pitch.
