Without it the ball will go 285 yards like on the PGA because they stop gravity for tournaments. Inertia: It’s what you feel when you have a cart buddy that doesn’t drive very well. Momentum: Is what you need to get up a steep hill on a battery operated golf cart. Magnetism: That is why balls turn right and land in the water. They are being pulled in by the Golf Gods. Centripetal Force: That’s Spanish for Centrifugal Force. The force that POWERS the Golf swing. LOL. Daryl View Public Profile Send a private message to Daryl Find all posts by Daryl
