Billiard ball

A game played for centuries and mastered by many. One of the most simple games ever made in history. Gowf or otherwise known as Golf as told by Richard Cavendish, was made for entertainment purposes but soon grew into the competitive sport it is today(np). But it didn’t just take five years and they ended up with golf. This game has been around a lot longer than most think. A lot of changes for the worse or for the better have been made to golf over the many many years. Changes to the…

but discount hybrid golf clubs are available along with clone and knockoff hybrid golf clubs. Golf irons are the essence of a set of golf clubs. Two thirds of the shots in a normal round of golf will utilize an iron. Irons are used to hit the golf ball off the ground from distances of 125 yards to 225 yards. Each iron is assigned a number based upon the loft angle of the club head. The 9-iron has the most loft, a shorter shaft, and is used to hit short, high shots. A 2-iron has very little…

I am doing my science fair project on “What golf ball travels the furthest”. I decided to do my project on this because there are so many brands of golf balls out there and i was curious to see if all the balls were the same or different. I will be testing some of the top brand golf balls to see which golf ball bounces and travels the furthest. Golf is a game of the Scottish origin, and is one of the most popular sports in the world. Golf has been played by over 24 million people. Golf has…

From a pitching wedge to a lob wedge there can be over 15 degrees of change in on face of the golf club. This change in angle has a dramatic effect at how your golf ball will react. Thankfully we've compiled a list of facts about wedges to help: Fact 1: The History The angle of an Iron club has gone down by approximately 8 degrees per club. This is why there are so many new types of wedges. Fact 2: Wedge Names While pitching, sand, lob, and gap wedges are the common names, wedges can also be…

Potential variables in testing distance on golf balls as a result of dimple depth and dimple shape that need to be controlled are the type of golf ball, their construction, the type of golf club, the type of swing used, the tee height, wind, and the turf hit off of. In order to take care of the golf ball construction and type of golf ball, I will do extensive research on each ball. I will conduct my experiment at an indoor golf simulator where they can measure the trajectory of my shot, this…

the first to play it because there have been so many discoveries of different versions of bowling as we know it today. Similar to most sports, there are rules for bowling. A bowler is allowed 10 frames to a game in which frames one through nine the ball can either be rolled once, which would mean getting a strike, or twice in hopes they pick up any pins left behind which is called a spare. During frame gen, the bowler is allowed at…

Golf swing speed can be calculated without the need for modern technology. If a golfer can determine exactly how far their golf ball traveled prior to landing, they can determine the speed of their swing. For every 2.3 yards traveled, a swing has to generate a speed of 1 mph. For anyone who is wondering how useful it is to have this knowledge, they should consider that the only way to increase distance is to increase the speed of the swing. Measuring progress requires some kind of metrics by…

I was very intrigued with the TED videos that were assigned to this paper. I am always interested in learning more about how children at such a young age develop everything that is essential for when we age in adulthood. In the first video “What Do Babies Think?” The first experiment included babies that were the age of fifteen to eighteen months. I was amazed to find there was a significant amount of difference between a fifteen-month and an eighteen-month baby and how their brain processes…

the different bounce heights of the bouncy balls once their original recipe have been modified. Background The bouncy ball experiment is an experiment where you mix cornstarch, borax and glue to create a small ball that rebounds upon impact, also known as elasticity. After my ball was made, I recorded data about how high my ball bounced at a drop height of 50cm. The objective of this experiment is to maximise the elasticity effect of the bouncy ball, by investigating the ingredients and…

distance can make it even more difficult. Golf rangefinders are a need be for any serious golfer. Some of the better rangefinders that are available will give you 1 yard accuracy for up to 1500 yards away. Some of them even come almost as small as a golf ball. Today you will find there is a wide range of different golf gps systems and laser rangefinders available. It can get rather puzzling to select the best golf rangefinder which suits your style and price range. Golf rangefinders are the…
