From the technical point of view, my thanks go to all the PGA and LPGA Tour players who have contributed to our understanding of what can and cannot be ac- complished with hard work. I appreciate your trust in coming to us with your putting-game problems and sharing your results, frustrations, and rewards over the years. In addition, I want to give a special thanks to Jim Simons, Tom Jenkins, Allen Miller, Joe Inman, Tom Kite, Andy North, Eddie Pearce, D. A. Weibring, Tom Sieck- mann, Peter Jacobsen, Vijay Singh, Jesper Parnevik, Beth Daniel, Paul Azinger, Lee janzen, and Steve Elkington. These players have a special place in my heart for the way they have helped me learn, and I thank them for being my friends, as well. Another player I want to thank, posthumously, is my friend Payne Stewart. Payne, I know you are there, and I was so looking forward to doing some special things in this book with you. I will never forget your focus and determination in working on your routine, which you maintained perfectly as you made the best three putts in the history of golf to close out your second U.S. Open win. And we all know those were your least important accomplishments over the last few years. We are proud just to have known and worked with you. I also want to thank my technical staff, especially Pete Piotrowski, Eddie Pelz, and J. D. Pelly, for their contributions to the Pelz Golf Institute testing results. Putting this book together, I thank Joel Mendelman, Bryan Allison, and Dave Watford for their graphical talents, Eddie Pelz for project management, Leonard Kamsler for his unparalleled photographic talents, and Tina Thompson for her talent in laying out the book as well as her patience with my "occasional" changes. I also thank my good friends at the best magazine in golf, GOLF MAGAZINE, for their contributions, and especially my editor, Jim Frank, who helped me cut - the size of this book from ridiculous down to just "really more than you want to x Acknowledgments know about putting." Jim, really, I appreciate your talents after this one more than ever. And finally, I want to thank my instructional staff at our Scoring Game Schools. To you twenty full-time teaching professionals, you are the best in the business, and I couldnt have done this book without you. And Bob Scott, your ed- itorial contributions were awesome ... thanks. Introduction My Putting Bible I want to start this book with a short explanation. Look closely at the title. Notice that I dont claim this to be "THE" putting bible. I call it Dave Pelzs Putting Bible because it truly is "my" bible on putting. It is a compendium of my research, my studies, my test results, my teaching philosophy, and my beliefs about the art and science of putting. It is my bible-or, if you prefer, my notebook or data log book-into which I have transcribed my thoughts, interpretations of test results, observations, and theoretical work that have been instrumental in forming my understanding of putting. It is also from this work that I draw my philosophy for leaching the putting game in the Dave Pelz Scoring Game Schools. My putting bible is a work in progress, because as I continue to study putting, which I do almost every day, Im sure I will learn more. The information youll read here is what Ive learned so far. It started with my playing, thinking about, and studying my own game. I started playing golf when I was six. I played throughout my childhood, was the number-one player on my high-school teams, played in numerous local tour- naments, and had some minor success. I attended Indiana University on a four- year golf scholarship; more important, as it turned out, I also majored in physics. After college, I tried-unsuccessfully-to become a good enough player to make it on the PGA Tour back in the early 1960s. So I began a 15-year career at NASA, conducting research in space, launching satellites into earth orbit and beyond, and studying how the sun controls our atmosphere. Since then, having changed my focus from the stars to the little white ball, I have studied the performance techniques and results of many tour professionals and am- ateurs, golfers of all sizes and skill levels, whenever and wherever I find them. I also have studied thousands of putting greens, balls, the behavior of balls on those xi xii Introduction greens, myriad putting implements, and many of the varied techniques of putting. I have filled most of my last 25 years measuring and trying to improve the teaching and learning techniques for putting and the short game. I have had some success improving the putting of my students, from beginners to Tour pros, all over the world. As I write this today, I am deeply involved in several continuing (and very ex- citing) research projects relating to how players can learn to putt and play better. Again, this is "my" research and "my Putting Bible." But Ive put it in a form to help you become a better putter. I'm a Researcher Several years ago, I founded the Pelz Golf Institute, which has as its mission "re- search for the good of the game." We chose that charter because it is a noble pur- pose and fits very nicely with what Im trying to do-help golfers of all handicap and skill levels play the game better and enjoy it more. This has become my lifes work-and better work you could not find! But we also have taken this mission one step further: That is, we want to make the game simple enough to understand that everyone can "get it;" and, therefore, shoot lower scores and have more fun. To make teaching and learning the game this simple, we have to study it in depth. Luckily for me, that is something I dearly love to do. Its obvious to me now that all my previous experience-my years playing ju- nior, high school, and collegiate golf; my first career conducting space research at NASAs Goddard Space Flight Center (where my Indiana University book learning changed into real knowledge of how to conduct valid, scientific research); the in- depth studies I made of my own game; and my most recent work conducting re- search with the Pelz Golf Institute-were merely preparation for what Im doing now. Its taken me 54 years (since I first picked up a club at age six) to be ready to tell you, and show you, how you can improve your ability to sink putts while un- derstanding the game better and enjoying it more. As youll soon learn, one of the keys to lower scores is better putting. And the better you learn to putt, the more you will enjoy the rest of the game. Why This Book? Thats easy: I had to write this book because putting is so important. Further- more, besides being a researcher, Im also a teacher.

  • Measurements of the Horizontal Coefficient of Restitution for a Superball and a Tennis Ball
    Measurements of the horizontal coefficient of restitution for a superball and a tennis ball Rod Crossa) Physics Department, University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW 2006 Australia ͑Received 9 July 2001; accepted 20 December 2001͒ When a ball is incident obliquely on a flat surface, the rebound spin, speed, and angle generally differ from the corresponding incident values. Measurements of all three quantities were made using a digital video camera to film the bounce of a tennis ball incident with zero spin at various angles on several different surfaces. The maximum spin rate of a spherical ball is determined by the condition that the ball commences to roll at the end of the impact. Under some conditions, the ball was found to spin faster than this limit. This result can be explained if the ball or the surface stores energy elastically due to deformation in a direction parallel to the surface. The latter effect was investigated by comparing the bounce of a tennis ball with that of a superball. Ideally, the coefficient of restitution ͑COR͒ of a superball is 1.0 in both the vertical and horizontal directions. The COR for the superball studied was found to be 0.76 in the horizontal direction, and the corresponding COR for a tennis ball was found to vary from Ϫ0.51 to ϩ0.24 depending on the incident angle and the coefficient of sliding friction. © 2002 American Association of Physics Teachers. ͓DOI: 10.1119/1.1450571͔ I. INTRODUCTION scribed as fast, while a surface such as clay, with a high coefficient of friction, is described as slow.

  • Golf Course at Eastward Ho! L 11-20-12
    The Golf Course at Eastward Ho! William L. Healy, MD 2012 1 The Golf Course at Eastward Ho! "The Golf Course at Eastward Ho!" was written to tell the story of the golf course and to describe the eighteen golf holes at Eastward Ho! The impetus for this project was the author's amateur interest in golf course architecture and a desire to apply an evolving knowledge of golf course design to the golf course at Eastward Ho! This essay is not a comprehensive history of Eastward Ho! Edward Harriman (1973, 1978) and Virginia Doherty (1988) have previously recorded the history of the club. This project is limited to the story of the golf course and descriptions of the historic, topographic, architectural, and strategic characteristics of the eighteen golf holes. The hole-by-hole discussions include: yardage from the back tees, par, design characteristics, comments on the history, land, and features of the hole, thoughts on strategic playing of the hole, and names which have been suggested for the hole. "The Golf Course at Eastward Ho!" was initially written by and for the author with no intended audience. A brief essay was begun in 2009, and it has evolved to the present manuscript. The opinions expressed are personal, and they do not represent the club or any committee at Eastward Ho! This work was not authorized by Eastward Ho! The information presented is believed to be accurate, and references have been provided. However, this project is a work in progress. If readers discover incomplete information or unintended errors, please send suggestions for improvement.

  • Ball Trajectories
    42 Ball Trajectories Factors Influencing the Flight of the Ball Nathalie Tauziat, France By Rod Cross Introduction good tennis player knows instinctively how hard to hit a ball and at what angle to get the ball over the net and into the court so that the ball lands at just the right spot. This comes from years of practice. Players Amight be surprised to know just what they are doing in terms of the actual ball trajectories. For example suppose you hit a forehand at the baseline so that the ball lands on your opponent's baseline 78 feet away. If you hit the same ball but 1% faster it will land 18 inches beyond the baseline. If you hit the ball one degree higher it will land about 6 feet beyond the baseline, depending on the initial speed and angle. If you hit the ball one degree further to the left it will land 16 inches further to the left. When serving a ball at moderate to high speed, the ball must be served a few degrees down from the horizon- tal. Too far down and the ball will hit the net. Not enough and the ball will be long. The range of possible angles is only about two degrees, and it gets smaller if the ball is served faster or by a shorter player (Brody, 1987). The range of angles increases if the ball is served with topspin. Typical ball trajectories are shown below, togeth- er with an explanation of the trajectories. 368 Chapter 42 Examples of Ball Trajectories (a) Dropping a Ball (Free Fall) Suppose that a ball is dropped from a height of 1.0 m (about waist height) and is allowed to fall to the ground.

  • The Continental Grip – Swiss Army Knife of Tennis
    Continental Grip – the Swiss Army knife of tennis This is the most universally used grip in tennis. In fact, Continental means all-around grip. It was once known as the Aussie grip because famous Australian players such as Rod Laver and Ken Rosewall employed this grip for all of their shots—groundstrokes, volleys, serves, & overheads. The continental grip is most notably used for the serve, overhead, and volley. Because of its extreme versatility, this grip is also used to execute the half-volley, chip, slice, lob, and defensive shots. Players, who become comfortable early in their development with the continental grip, develop and progress much more rapidly. Learning to play with the continental grip will give you the enormous advantage of never having to think about changing your grip when you are up at net, especially during a rapid-fire volley exchange (seen often in doubles). However, for many players, the Continental grip is too uncomfortable, because it does not place the hand and wrist squarely behind the impact with the ball, especially on the forehand side. The awkwardness is because most players are not taught to use this grip early in their development. I teach the continental grip first to my beginning students because it can be and is used on a variety of shots. In my experience, most beginners feel more comfortable using an eastern forehand grip (EFG) on the forehand volley, and an eastern backhand grip (EBG) for the backhand volley. The EFG puts more of the palm of your hand behind the racquet, and players falsely think it makes the wrist stronger at contact.

  • Assessing Golfer Performance on the PGA TOUR
    Vol. 42, No. 2, March–April 2012, pp. 146–165 ISSN 0092-2102 (print) ISSN 1526-551X (online) http://dx.doi.org/10.1287/inte.1120.0626 © 2012 INFORMS Assessing Golfer Performance on the PGA TOUR Mark Broadie Graduate School of Business, Columbia University, New York, New York 10027, [email protected] The game of golf involves many different types of shots, including long tee shots (typically hit with a driver), approach shots to greens, shots from the sand, and putts on the green. Although determining the winner of a golf tournament by counting strokes is easy, assessing which factors contributed most to the victory is not. In this paper, we apply an analysis based on strokes gained, introduced previously, to assess professional golfer performance in different parts of the game [Broadie M (2008) Assessing golfer performance using Golfmetrics. Crews D, Lutz R, eds. Sci. Golf V: Proc. World Sci. Congress Golf (Energy in Motion, Inc., Mesa, AZ), 253–262]. Strokes gained is a simple and intuitive measure of each shot’s contribution to a golfer’s score and was imple- mented by the PGA TOUR to measure putting in May 2011. We apply strokes gained analysis to extensive ShotLink™ data to rank PGA TOUR golfers in various skill categories and to quantify the factors that differen- tiate these golfers. Long-game shots (those starting over 100 yards from the hole) explain about two-thirds of the score variability among PGA TOUR golfers. Tiger Woods is ranked first in total strokes gained, and at or near the top of PGA TOUR golfers in each of the three main categories: long game, short game, and putting.
