Club–hand gap @ DCH (Swing Analytics): What It Is & Why It Matters

In plain language, what does "Club–hand gap @ DCH" mean on my monitor or export?

Distance between club and hands at DCH—the Sportsbox key position where the shaft is roughly horizontal during the downswing (often named Downswing Club Horizontal or similar). It describes how stretched or cramped the linkage is halfway down.

Units: inches

Why does this metric matter for ball flight, dispersion, or scoring?

Sequences with wrist hinge, torso rotation into delivery, and how much shaft you shallow or steepen before impact.

What usually makes this number look bad or noisy in real rounds?

Detection of DCH hinges on shaft plane labeling—compare only within the same app version/session export.

What videos help explain this metric?

Each card opens the clip on YouTube; thumbnails come from YouTube’s preview images. For learning context only; not a substitute for in‑person coaching or medical advice.

What other metrics should I look at together with this one?

Shaft plane angle @ DAH, Lead wrist angle @ DAH, Release: hands to clubhead transfer
