Visual Center

The apparent center point of a golf club face as perceived by the golfer at address, which may differ from the actual geometric center due to visual design elements. Visual center affects golfer confidence and alignment at address, with club designers using color schemes, markings, and shaping to optimize the visual appearance. Modern club design considers both the actual sweet spot location and the visual center to create clubs that inspire confidence and promote proper alignment. The visual center concept is particularly important in putter design where alignment and confidence are crucial.
