Abstract
The golf swing involves the movement of numerous body parts and can be viewed in several phases. Understanding how each phase behaves is critical to improving the game. The improvement is commonly quantified in terms of accuracy, which can be determined from the trajectory of the ball. The relationship between golf swings and ball trajectories is normally obtained in a laboratory setting, which is both limited in access and expensive. Golf swings were studied in this study using a wearable device called MetaMotionS (MMS) from MbientLab. The MMS measures the acceleration of a golfer’s wrist and waist during a swing. According to the findings, the ball trajectory was influenced by the wrist and waist acceleration. Consequently, the golfer may apply the findings to improve his game.
