Abstract

Golf game is competitive and it has  attracted many participants due to its unique features. In  the many features, kinetics of golf swing was analyzed to  improve one’s performance level. The present study  examined the center of mass (COM) of a recreational  golfer during a phase from address to backswing top for  two different golf clubs. Kinematic data were evaluated.  The results indicated that there were some differences in  COM between two different golf clubs.
