Abstract

For the comparative analysis of foot pressure when wearing functional golf inner wear and swing aids, the following conclusions were obtained as a result of measuring pedar-X system with 12 beginner golfers.BR In comparison of the weight shift foot pressure in the address section, the left and right foot pressure distributions were similar for each tool, with none (8.7%), arm band (7%), air band (19.1%), and wearing (6.5%). In the back swing section, none (54%), arm band (54.6)%, air band (59.3%), and wearing (65.4%) showed the most movement of weight with the right foot when wearing functional inner wear. In the back swing top section, the changes in the strength of the left and right feet tended to predominantly shift the weight toward the right foot when wearing, arm band (34.6%) and wearing (41.6%). In the downswing section, none (35.6%), arm band (9.2%), air band (28.9%), and wearing (9.4%) showed the most efficient weight transfer when wearing. In the impact section, 62.9% when wearing, more weight movement occurred than none (12.4%), arm band (4.7%), and air band (26.7%). In the follow-throw section, the weight movement width of the left foot was the largest with 59.4% when wearing while compared to none (31.7%), arm band (52%), and air band (45%).BR In conclusion, it is judged that the kinematic functional inner wear, which can efficiently move weight through arm-to-body coordination among golf swing aids, will help beginner golfers to practice swing.
