Gutters - water dripping from underside?

Noticed today in heavy rain that water appears to be dripping down the underside of my gutters, splattering on the ground below and making a huge mess. The gutters aren't clogged and aren't overfilling with water, so it's not that. Are they not flush enough to the edge of the roof? I tried to capture this in a photo, but was difficult - essentially, beads of water are forming on the underside of the gutter and dripping off rapidly.

Hi, Just a thought, when it rains, raindrops that hit the outside of the gutter will end up on the ground.

Good Luck Woodbutcher

Hard to say how far they extend - I can’t get a good look. The volume of water to me suggests its more than just the rain hitting the side of the gutter. There’s considerably more water than on another section of gutter on the same side of the house.

What are the cords wrapped around the gutter? Looks like there is a space there.

Not sure what theyre called, but theyre copper fasteners that hold the gutters to the side of the house (the gutters are copper).

How old are the copper gutters? Is it possible there are pin-holes in the bottom? Are you able to look at them head on or is it a second story? Is this the only section of gutter that does this?
