One reference number from the glossary—not a target for every golfer.

Benchmark band

Match mobility

Use this line with cohort percentiles or coach bands in Sportsbox when available.

Aim (simple): No single optimal degree fits every golfer—camera pitch skews readings. Loose aim: stabilize within roughly ±4–8° versus YOUR baseline on identical framing or push cohort percentiles upward week over week.

Typical ranges: Carry deltas from TOP readings as transition fires—cohort overlays from SportsBox beat static textbook °.

Camera setup affects inches and degrees—track your own trend more than someone else’s raw number.

What it measures

SportsBox-style X-Factor at IMP—the angular torso–pelvis stretch (degrees) at Impact, conceptually Chest Turn minus Pelvis Turn at the IMP instant. Different from Downswing core speed sequencing ratios (often labeled Speed gain / timing rows). NEVER swap this IMP stretch number for TOP stretch without relabeling the phase.

Units: degrees

Why it matters

Snapshots how much separation survives into strike—a headline metric for kinematic sequencing reviews next to sway/lift columns.

When the number looks wrong or noisy

Mixed POS tagging between TOP rows and IMP totals invalidates deltas—triple-check spreadsheets.
