Ball launch conditions for skilled golfers using drivers of different lengths in an indoor testing facility

Article Abstract:

The relationship between driver length and ball launch conditions in an indoor test facility is examined by using a ball launch monitor. The results have shown that the combined launch conditions associated with increasing length are not optimal, whereas the controlled swingweight and moment of inertia effects are considered to be the limiting factors.

Variable-cam resistance training machines: do they match the angle-torque relationship in humans?

Article Abstract:

A study to determine the extent to which the resistance provided by variable-cam resistance training machines, match joint torque capability is conducted. Findings show that angle-torque relationship of different training machines was highly variable, but consistently less curvilinear and importantly different from the knee extensor capabilities.

An examination of the planar nature of golf club motion in the swings of experienced players

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to examine whether a single plane could be fitted to club motion and if this plane changed in different clubs. The results have shown that the planar model of golf club motion is simple, but changes in plane angles might give more information than a single plane that fits the whole downswing.
