Over the last decade, the world has seen a vast increase in the use of technology in sports. Its ability to give athletes data insights into critical components of their respective sports. Arguably, one of the most technology rich sports is golf. From the range finder to simulation, golf has been one of the early adopters of technology and utilizing its capabilities to improve the way players perform as well as how the average golfer improves their game.
Leading Managed Service Provider Executive, James Martinos, loves to spend his time finding new ways to use technology to improve his clients and friends’ handicaps. Blending his love of technology and golf, he utilizes computer analysis of many aspects of his game, namely club head speed, launch angle, ball flight, and grip strength. Through computer analysis of these components, players are able to find golf clubs that better suit their swing style which can improve a golfer’s score in as much as 5-6 strokes.
Beyond computer analysis, golf balls are seeing improvements due to the influx of technology in golf. Long gone are the days of one-piece golf balls that feel like rocks as your club strikes the ball. Today’s golf balls are designed with numerous layers that allow players to take advantage of softness and trajectory, which also play a large part in one’s handicap. Along with the improvement of the golf ball, is the putter. Through simulation and computer analysis, experts have found that when a golfer opens the face of the putter and makes contact with the golf ball, most putts then veer off course. Through this understanding, players are better able to practice and perfect their approach to the game. This in turn allows for players to become more competitive in the professional world of golf. This has led to golf becoming one of the most popular international sports among youth with an estimated 2.9 million Junior Golfers worldwide.
