So I once went on a golf forum and asked if anyone knew whether if the club was accerating when it hit the ball it imparted more velocity then if the acceleration had peaked. The answer was, "I just hit 'em, find 'em, and hit 'em again.". i.e. physics questions not wanted here. But physics is what determines whether the ball goes straight and far. Period. Well, if you like physics, or even if you just don't mind it too much, this book will help your game. Now much of it is very very cerebral and only interesting from an intellectual point of view. You can skip those parts. But lots of it is directly convertible into how you swing. One item in particular increased distance and accuracy for me quite a lot. I won't publish that here because the author deserves to be paid for his insights.
Detailed look into the science behind the golf swing. Contains numerous diagrams and charts. If you are looking for the standard golf tips publication this is not it. If you're looking for a detailed understanding of the dynamics that drive the golf swing this is a real treat. Shows numerous comparisons between professional and amateur swings. While it does contain abundant detailed scientific analysis author summarizes key points for the average person to understand. Very unique publication.
Excellent book on the physics and research that underlie the "attempts to put an elusive ball into an obscure hole with implements ill-adapted to the purpose."
very good
unfortunately not what I expected,way over my head. therefore it's kinda boring
