Automated method and system for golf club selection based on swing type

摘要

A method of selecting a performance golf club based on a golfer's swing type is accomplished in an automated fashion, comprising a system that is readily and easily utilized in a retail setting, for example. The golfer performs several swings of a golf club before a digital camera that transmits the golfer's swing information to a computational device for processing. Several parameters relating to the golfer's swing characteristics are identified and a performance golf club is selected and displayed for the golfer within less than one hour, and preferably within about five to ten minutes. Markers may be positioned on the golf club and/or golfer for easier tracking and data collection by the present system.
