Driving Distance Study and Swing Speed Study using BallDriver performance bands

Hypothesis: Wearing a BallDriver  performance band will increase the average driving distance for golfers.

Method:

·         10 golfers with handicaps ranging from 1 to 10 were tested to see the effect of wearing a BallDriver performance band on driving distance.

·         The reasoning for testing golfers with 10 and under handicaps was for duplication of swing. 

·         Each golfer was asked to warm up first.  

·         They were then asked to hit 20 balls with their drivers.

·         The first 10 balls were struck without the band on.  

·         The next 10 balls were struck wearing the BallDriver performance band.

Results:  

·         The average driving distance increased by 15 yards wearing the BallDriver  performance band.  

·         The low was 10 yards and the high was 25 yards. 

Conclusion:  

·         Wearing a BallDriver  performance band increases the driving distance in golfers.

·          Further investigation into this phenomenon is warranted to determine the reason behind the increase.

·          Swing speed as well as stability affecting ball flight and dispersion will be tested in the future.  

Swing Speed Study using BallDriver  performance bands.

Hypothesis: 

·         Wearing a BallDriver  performance band will increase the average club head speed for golfers.

Method:

·         5 golfers were used in the study.

·         Golfers were asked to warm up before the start of the study.

·         Golfers were then asked to strike the ball with an 8 iron 3 times without the performance band on

·         The next 3 times with the BallDriver  performance band on.

Results:

·         The average club head speed increased 3.2 m.p.h.

Conclusion:

·         Based on a previous study where an increase in driving distance was seen, increased club head swing speed translates into increased drive distance with the BallDriver  performance band on.

·         The need for further testing is indicated
