Recenzii
Excellent book... A very worthy addition to the literature on the science of sport.
A perfect gift for the golf-playing scientist at any level
Interesting and informative, The Science of the Perfect Swing strikes a perfect balance between hard science and an accessible tone that will appeal to golf enthusiasts, engineers, and anyone with an interest in sports science.
The book presents a wealth of experimental data about how different equipment and striking parameters affect distance and spin.
